Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 New Car Detail

[Chapppers11]

Hi all, another cracker of a car from me; I was commissioned to detail this brand new Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 at Hartwell Jaguar in Bristol, laying down some solid protection to match this beast of a machine!

This one had a whole host of options ticked;

Panoramic Sunroof, Rotor Alloy wheels, Ivory and Black combo interior in premium leather, grey leather roof lining and extended premium dash leather package to name a few!

This detail was video'd, With the finished Jaguar F Type R video here -

ABC Detailing - Jaguar F Type R - Polaris White - New Car Protection Detail - YouTube

Onto the detail, the car started in the usual state after unwrapping.

After the usual wash process, the car was completely decontaminated of transport fallout such as iron and tar deposits.

The purple bleeding showing iron deposits being dissolved.

After rinsing and drying off, the car was then brought inside for the rest of the detail.

Carpets and fabrics were coated in GTechniq I1.

Under the bonnet was protected with GTechniq C2v3.

The amazing chrome/carbon fibre/gloss black wheels were coated in GTechniq C5.

Paintwork sealed with GTechniq EXO v2.

Leather was sealed with GTechniq L1.

Dash sealed with C6.

GTechniq G1 was also used to coat all exterior glass.

Onto the finished photos..

And next to another new F Type R!

Comments welcome!

f**king beautiful.

Top work as ever, not jealous at all!

 

[adamlstr]

That looks facking gorgeous!

 

[banther]

Bloody hell. I heard my first V8 one the other day - absolutely stonking noise.

Im glad the business is going well for you.

 

[Advikaz]

Great work, awesome car.

Not keen on the wheels though.

 

[Jack!]

Such a gorgeous car, not sure about those wheels though.

Great minds.

Wheels are horrible!
Lovely car apart from that.

 

[Matt W]

Wow those wheels. Interesting choice.

Good work!

Willo

Going to take a White V6s one out on Sunday.
I'm going to have to cut my credit card up before I go.

Fantastic looking car. White's not my personal preference but still wouldn't say no.

Love the red these come in!

OH MY!

Cracking work as usual mate,looks very well done.

I think that looks lovely in white, the red one next to it is pretty lame next to it.

That red needs to be out in the light for it to look it's best - http://www.autogespot.com/jaguar-f-type-r-coupe-1/2014/06/18I
I like the bright red too.

 

[Martin.]

Lovely car. But the wheels are possibly the worst things I have ever seen. Horrendous!!

 

[Knuckles]

Awesome car and awesome job as usual.

Horrible colour and wheel choice though.

 

[cat171]

I love the car, but hate the wheels.

I see a black one most mornings, it sounds great!

 

[banther]

I don't see the issue. Yeah it looked better before but it's easily reversible. If he's got the money to chop and change then why not?

I can't see the problem with it at all to be honest. There's plenty of premium cars, [with that wheel choice], that would have the majority of CS knocking one out at the sight of it.
Hypocrisy? Jealousy?

So much jelly in here, who's got the ice cream

Who cares, I'd have it.

Just getting in before the normal crap is banded around

 

[Short Norman]

lovely lovely lovely. £3.5k option those wheels.....

I'm 40 next week getting nearer Jag ownership age by the day. F@@k it I'll stick with my 320d.

Colour is nice tbh, not a fan of the wheels (though I think they suit the colour pretty well).

If you want ugly as hell colours, look at that burgundy one, bleh.

Is that the same colour!?

Damn, the photos do it no justice lol, I like it in that!

 

[The Fatty]

I like all of it :up:

I am wondering how long a car stays that clean though?

Yep. Two reds are Salsa and Italian Racing red. Salsa is the nice bright flat red and that one IR red

 

[Herr Flick]

That interior (specifically the seats) is amazing. Did a job on one with those wheels and the bloke regretted speccing them after a while. Such a s**t design.

 

[Gally]

The wheels are so wrong but the car is so so special. Stunning work Andy as always these days.

How are you finding Exo?

I was lucky enough to drive one before its official launch as the garage had a demo one. The wait if ordered at that point was over 12 months depending on engine and spec.

I just couldn't get on with the Red. White first. Black second (I know it hides the curves)

 

[Mr Plums]

I prefer those wheels, but the white paint.

 

[Gally]

Agreed.

 

[Chris V6 255]

Absolutely love these! Really hoping for some usual Jag depreciation. Really fancy one for my 40th in a few years.

Thought you'd be along, thanks Ian.

Thanks mate, really getting on well with EXO and Rob from Gtechniq washed this car a month and a few thousand miles after the detail (for another video) and the beading was unreal. Best I've ever seen!

Can believe the 12 month wait, unbelievable car, but that F Type R didn't give the owner much change from £100k.

I've driven the V8 one and they are just out of this world. So bloody raw. The v6 is great too, I thought it would sound/go noway near the V8 but it's a totally different beast.

There was a black V8 coupe at vmaxx the other week, I thought it would get shown up by the AMGs, GTRs and other supercars on show but it went like sh&t off a shovel. Squatting like hell under launch and sounding better than anything else there.
