Jaguar has ended production of the F-Type sports car and this is the final example built. While we’re sure a private collector would have happily paid an exorbitant sum for the car, it will be kept in the hands of the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust and placed in the official Jaguar Heritage collection. This final F-Type is a V8 Convertible painted in Giola Green and joins the brand’s heritage collection exactly 50 years after production of the E-Type ceased. The car rocks a black roof and a Tan Windsor leather interior and will be on display at a series of special events throughout the year. It has a similar configuration to the final E-Type that was built.
Jaguar unveiled the F-Type in early 2013,
selling it in Convertible and Coupe guises. The gorgeous design was
well-received and the car proved itself to be a well-rounded, sporty grand
tourer that, with the supercharged V6 and V8 engines, sounded absolutely
incredible. A total of 87,731 F-Types have been built and while production has
ended, the car will remain available to customers until early 2025.
The F-Type will not be replaced as Jaguar
is in the midst of a radical transformation into a manufacturer of exclusive,
high-priced EVs. The firm’s first all-new model will be a sleek, four-door
grand tourer underpinned by the new Jaguar Electric Architecture. It will be
unveiled in 2025 and according to reports, could cost around US$ 125,000.
