Hi Howard
Don't know if you've gotten your F-Type beast yet but I would recommend a few things. Miles comes to mind to start with. These cars are not to be driven as an everyday vehicle. If there are alot of miles I wouldn't buy it. Wear and tear in certain areas is the next. Check your front tire wear. Seems most sports cars if not maintained properly will show tire wear on the inside. This comes from not properly keeping your alignment. CUT THE RADIO OFF! Start the beast and listen for sounds that bring you alarm. Cars talk, we just fail to listen. Any unusual sound on these cars can be expensive. Ask to get it check at a Jag dealer of your chosing. Let them plug it up. Sometimes paying a money on the front end will eliminate a headache on the back. Good luck and keep it under 200!
