Yup, you're right. I forgot who drove what, but always thought the XKR was cooler looking car at the time.

The F type is a great addition to the Vantage for bad weather rides.

F-type is 2 inches wider than a Vantage.

Who says a bad weather car has to have AWD? A bad weather cars purpose is to save the nice weather car from the bad weather.

I thought the early F Types had super stiff springs and some scary handling traits that were fixed in later model years?

I am big Jaguar fan but never warmed up to the F Type. The XK was a better looking car, but it never got all the development it deserved.
