Searching for a vehicle with a GT personality or maybe the raging bull attitude of the XKR or XKR? If so, this is your last chance, as the F-Type drives the XK into retirement. The beautiful roar of its V8 (with 385, 510 or 550 horsepower) is available with rear-wheel drive only. The only available gearbox, a six-speed automatic, betrays the car’s age. Its reliability is also from another era and, in Jaguar’s case, this is not necessarily a compliment.
