Ekona Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Those designed-in crackles sound awful and cheap Looks much sharper though than the current one, beautiful colour too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deano94 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 SVR looks great. But those crackles p!$$ me off too. Especially with all these 2l hot hatches.

ioneabee Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 the actual sound from the crackles is completely different to what you're hearing on youtube .......... as always taste is individual anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 At last they've taken note to put a spoiler on the F, rather than some cut down tray that's supposed to look like a spoiler! Sounds nice to me, agressive, but not quite dirty.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioneabee Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 the fixed spoiler is only on this version - all others have the spoiler recessed which then raises at speeds in excess of 74mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 the fixed spoiler is only on this version - all others have the spoiler recessed which then raises at speeds in excess of 74mph Prefer the fixed to be honest. The mini spoiler which pops (which I'm sure is purposeful) looks horrible for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strudul Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) the fixed spoiler is only on this version - all others have the spoiler recessed which then raises at speeds in excess of 74mph Not quite. That rear spoiler is only on the SVR and comes as standard (though you can opt for the deployable one for no extra charge), but you can have a fixed rear spoiler (albeit it slightly different one) as a £255 optional extra on any other F-type. Source: I've been in a non-SVR F-type with a fixed spoiler and also the internet. Edited February 8, 2017 by Strudul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioneabee Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 True - after I'd posted I remembered that it could be a factory option, but haven't seen any with it........... on forums or otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strudul Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 Went to a Jag event last year and they had one: Can barely see it, but the one of the left had the fixed, other 2 are normal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Car looks good, crackles though are stupid, ok for the odd time but I've heard plenty of these in person now going by and its too much. I also get what was previously said about the hot hatches, this turbo crap with pops and bangs from them just.... whats the matter with a nice smooth sounding N/A engine!? (stuff your economy and emissions). I hate that dull Audi turbo sound, I'd have the crackles anyday over it but both are still terrible.
