Ready to be won! Our 2015 Jaguar F-Type is now live
December 1, 2023
In the early 1960s, Jaguar would create one of the most iconic and sought-after sports cars of all time – The E-Type. For nearly 20 years, the long-legged GT car would be seen as the pinnacle of luxury and performance combined.
After this, the world would sit in wait for the better part of 40 years for its successor.
In 2013, the world would take its first look at a modern take on this timeless classic – the F-Type.
Bridge Classic Cars Competitions is giving you the chance to win the answer to the question ‘What would be a modern E-Type?’ with our 2015 Jaguar F-Type.
With stunning Polaris White bodywork, contrasted by a rich black cabin with accents of orange stitching, our F-Type personifies class and sophistication.
Under its clamshell bonnet lies the full-blooded beating heart of this sports GT car thanks to a 3.0-litre supercharged V6. It’s paddle shift, automatic gearbox allows this sleek, modern car to transform from a mild-mannered gentleman to a ready to go brawler with the pull of a paddle making our F-Type truly the ultimate everyday performance car.
The car’s history file includes a print-out of the electronic service record which shows services by mostly main JLR dealers (from 2016 onwards) as well as some trusted independent garages whilst the car was spending time in Malta early in its life.
