The F-TYPE has all of the performance figures for a modern day super car, rivalling the likes of a BMW M3 and Porsche 911. Looks wise, it has to be one of the most stunning cars we have ever seen, no doubt drawing on its E-TYPE heritage. Watch our exclusive content above to hear the roar (literally) of the V8S engine.

We look forward to the release of the new Desire film and of course, providing feedback of the car.
