Jaguar F Type R vs Aston Martin Vantage S Drag Racing

[@jaguaruk1499]

I would say the JAGUAR is the best car out there right now,rare cars

[@michaelkorvac4007]

not that rare

[@den-tech-mods]

@michaelkorvac4007 over in north east you never see them ,and when you do you snap your neck to see it ,I've seen 1 ,but I've seen plenty supercars

[@scoops0406]

@@michaelkorvac4007 less than 4000 F type R's registered in the UK. All are built to order.

[@raymorley1015]

Had the choice of either a few years ago. Went with the Jag. Zero regrets!

[@fueledbyforeigns]

They’re both a hell of a car

[@arseniboston9659]

I just got myself a Jaguar FType R 2017 AWD shit is fun 😁

[@alanhaigh9682]

I love the Jaaaggggssss... Buying used with a few miles there a bargain.

[@arseniboston9659]

I got mine for $50k

Jaguar FType R

[@arseniboston9659]

Just bought myself a Jaguar FType R best thing ever drove !!!

[@Schaufelor]

I want to buy the V6 version. Just not sure about reliability. I hear mixed information.

[@arseniboston9659]

@@Schaufelor well, I just got mine so I don't have much experience with that, but yes the Jaguars aren't like Toyota they will need more maintenance, but generally I would go look for common failure of different parts like "y pipe" part that are known to fail and replace them for stronger parts. Most parts will cost under $200 and will save u potentially big problems, but so far I didn't have a problem. I believe if a car is maintained well it will last a reasonably good time

[@jaytheist]

How much downforce is that 360 cam providing? That's what gave the jag an advantage! ;-). Oh! The Aston had it, too! hahah

[@AmirTheGoat]

I actually own both. Ftype SVR and AM Rapide. The Jag is quicker and extremely fun to drive but the AM is faster Handles better and is more prestigious. I’m grateful for both. I love both

[@bpdbhp1632]

What are you doing for a living if i may ask😉

[@Sir-Robalon]

Im leanin into the AM on bark outta those flanges...

[@Bzurker]

So how is that Jag not fun to drive… I got a 2017 SVR and i love it fun all day

[@fueledbyforeigns]

It’s not that it’s not fun to drive in general, it’s just much more tame compared to our harder shifting cars, or RWD, we do love ours though, absolute unit.

[@AmirTheGoat]

Facts. I feel the same

[@LagunaLeonhart]

Lol the gaming edits. Have a sub

[@273VIPER]

The Jag is a lot of car for the money

[@osoyoosforever9643]

Never a doubt in my mind. The jag is the ultimate beast

[@RobMacEwen]

Great vid guys.

[@tommyfreckmann6857]

I highly recommend doing your research or actually weighing the cars... pretty sure the AWD weighs over 4,000 lbs.

[@fueledbyforeigns]

If only I could screenshot that is 3800 pounds lmao

[@BoSSLeVeLs]

Unladen the convertible is 3847lb coupe 3814 lb unladen

[@keithyuen2005]

You guys need an AMG GT in the lineup

[@arseniboston9659]

You should buy a Corvette c8

[@scoops0406]

it's just a corvette, they have no prestige in europe at all and little resale value and in the UK are useless as LHD. Additionally the Z06 isn't road legal in europe as it doesn't meet european standards, so we can only get the 6.2l C8 which is less powerful than the f type.

[@user-qq2mo1ek2r]

Pointless exercise, two cars from different era's....the Aston platform dates back to 2005 and the 4.7 V8 from 2008 and is not boosted. The Jag is a car from the modern era with a boosted engine, launch control etc .... As I said, pointless.

[@LagunaLeonhart]

Not pointless in the slightest. These two are comparable by price, it's similar. A newer Aston is double the cost of the jag

[@user-qq2mo1ek2r]

@@LagunaLeonhart I guess a Spitfire is a similar price to a second hand F16 .... So by your logic a completely plausible comparison. As I said different cars from different era's

[@LagunaLeonhart]

@@user-qq2mo1ek2r that's just silly. One flies, one drives. When you're out looking to buy a car you don't stop to think "maybe I should buy a fkn jet plane instead". Both of these cars are in the same price bracket for buyers. Both sit in the same "muscle car" bracket too. Both have two seats, and the same target buyer. The end

[@user-qq2mo1ek2r]

@@LagunaLeonhart different brands for different pockets. Running a Jag (if it's reasonably reliable) is going to be cheaper than the Aston. When did I say anything about comparing a car with a key engined aircraft?

[@LagunaLeonhart]

@@user-qq2mo1ek2r an F16 is a jet. Maintenance is something every buyer would consider but first it's always the cost of buying and I stand by the point that any buyer looking to buy one of these will also consider the other one. They appeal to the same market.
