Anyone for Jaguar F-Type Ride @ PhP 15,500!

MANILA: No, it's no post-April fools prank or anything of that sorts. This is actually true and as real as you and the world. Jaguar F-Type SVR, the ultra-expensive, hardcore speedy monster that was launched at New York Motor Show, is the car you can now ride. And what's even more surprising is the fact that this entire ‘out-of-this-world’ experience will cost you as low as PhP 15,500 (owing the fact that it's the ultimate F-Type).

Now, if the added SVR part with the F-Type confuse you then here something you should know. Globally, Jaguar offers as many as seven variants of F-type and SVR is one of the most powerful among the lot. At the April scheduled 2016 MIAS Jaguar Philippines showcased the base model of F-Type along with Jaguar XE. Thus, making it a bit obvious for Filipinos to not recognize this one.

Before starting to appreciate F-Type SVR exhilarating power, let's first see how we can get our stands on this seeding baby. Under a new program called 'Jaguar Co-Pilot Nordschleife' the company is offering a flying lap experience to its fans. As suggested by the name, participants will get a chance to sit next to a professional driver, who would be driving at full pace, showing off F-Type SVR superb handling and control.

Below mentioned pointers will further guide you on Jaguar co-pilot program -
