We've gone to the darkside !!!

[metal licker]

The Mrs has been looking for a new car for a few weeks to use as her daily drive
After driving a Boxster and a Jag F type the Boxster won
So she picks up her new 718 with PDK in Guards red in a couple of week

Very nice, it almost matches her hair

What swung the decision to the Porker over Jag?

We only tried the 2ltr jag and it just didn't feel as good to drive

Looks tasty in Red

Understood - not a nice experience pulling 300hp out of a gruff 4 pot and generally stripped out interior to a price.

[sars]

Think the jag looks fantastic and if it wasn't going to be a daily drive but a weekend car the V6 would definitely been in the running

Guards red is very underrated. Looks superb

Any opinions of the flimsy weedy paddle pull on the F type CJ? It’s put me off one tbh.

Sorry for thread hi jack Metal, that’s a lovely 718, she’ll love it and I won’t knock her teeth out..!

sorry - no hijack intended.
Easy fix to replace with alloy paddles. Even dealers do it. In my case I found a brand new SVR wheel on eBay for £200 so swapped (similar to ///M conversion on the Zed)

wow - love it :wub:

Sure but it’s the tiny amount of paddle travel and a pathetic little click that puts me off Phil, where’s the meaty thunk of some proper engineering?

 

[Swiftly]

Very nice, I can see the big grins already

 

[Mr Tidy]

Glad I read this - when I saw the "darkside" mentioned I thought it might be about a diesel!

Lovely looking daily.

 

[buzyg]

Good choice.
