As a former F-Type R owner I would take that over the R8. Had zero issues with mine over the years and I think it has alot more character than the R8. It is also a much better daily driver but if its going to be your weekend car the R8 is definetley not a bad option.

If it was an F type coupe R (with the full 550bhp) I’d definitely be keeping that as the coupe is so sexy. However I don’t like the look of the convertible so I would keep the R8.

My name is Trevor and I’ve been a Sub for a few years and loved the Boxster and now R8 series. Anyway maybe next time I will make more effort to say hi . Keep up the good work on the channel mate 👍

Hi Ben, great video. I'm in a similar predicament, I've got a 60's mustang and a 80's 911. one needs to go as i want to go for a V8 R8 also, its hard to make a decision!

I never considered a 2 seater until I saw the FType. The FType takes on different personalities depending on how you configure it. This blue one is unique and is a keeper. My British Racing Green is arriving 10/18

I think it has to come down to how much you use them. If you need a daily or long range cruiser, has to be the Jag. If you use it as a weekend toy, and just use it for a blast, the R8. I couldn't choose without lots of internal debate, but I'd have to go with the one that best suits how I use a car. Good luck 👍

Really I think the only reason to keep the R8 is if you really are sure you want a manual. I don’t think it has anything else on the f type. Sounds and looks can be argued either way but it’s slower, less reliable, has worse tech and I’d guess less comfortable. So brain says F type but follow your heart. Keep which you want most. Which you’re most happy with and look back at when you get out etc. i would sell the R8 but like you mention it’s not my or anyone else’s car so yeah pick whichever you love most

To me the R8 is just so much more special. If you can afford to keep it running well it seems like the obvious choice. It's a supercar, the gated manual with the mid mounted V8 that you can see in your rear view mirror is amazing and you'd have to spend double the money to get that experience anywhere else. The jag makes more sense if you're doing tons of mileage, but it's just so much less interesting. If it were me I'd keep the R8 and pick up a convertible again when I had the money. There are a lot of front engine/RWD roadsters out there, I bet you could get a similar experience for less money. EDIT: Oh and congrats on the house!

Such a tough choice ! I had the make the same and with the car being my daily…. I think you know which one I went with . The R8 is nice but the interior is definitely dated and quite frankly, the R8 would need some work due to its age

7:44 - The attention is because the R8 is so Lamborghini-ish. It's definitely in the supercar category. You know it's an Audi when you spot the emblem, but you quickly realize it's a special Audi. I've known about the Audi R8 before I actually saw one on the road. When I finally saw one, I did a double-take because I thought for a moment it was a Lamborghini, not a Ferrari, a Lamborghini.

As someone who hopes to own multiple cars in the future, can I ask how you do your insurance? Do you have policies for each car or a broker who covers all your cars under one policy or anything?
@be1441

I usually insure each car separately. In this case, I hoped to sell the jag on. So usually cancel the insurance within 14 days to avoid big charges.
