To kick things off, with Jaguar ending F-Type production in 2024, will I be able to find spare parts for a used F-Type in the next 4-5 years? Additionally, I’m curious about its reliability as a daily driver:
1- Are there common issues with the transmission, engine, or electrical systems?
2- How effective is the AC in keeping cool during summer?
3- Any known interior problems?
4- Are there differential issues, particularly with V6s or V8s AWD?
5- How costly are spare parts?
I also want clarification on a few specifics:
1- Is it true that the exhaust on the 2019/2020 models is quieter than earlier versions? If so, how can I address this? I prefer the facelifted design with the new LED headlights and larger infotainment system, that's why I'm a bit concerned about this point because i really love the loud noise of the exhaust of this amazing car.
2- I’m considering either a 2019/2020 V6s (P380 R-Dynamic AWD) or a V8 (P450/P575 R-Dynamic). Which is typically more economical to maintain?
3- What’s the cost and feasibility of remapping or tuning a Jaguar F-Type? Is it expensive? How can i order parts to my country like ECU tuner and crank pulley (I live in Kuwait)?
4- Is retrofitting the new digital cluster from the 2021+ models to a 2019/2020 possible?
I Might have missed some things, so if anyone has any additional helpful information or tips, i would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance for your help!
