(Whitley, Coventry, 27 June 2013). The new Jaguar F-TYPE has topped a reader survey to earn pride of place on the cover of the last ever print issue of Auto Trader magazine. The Auto Trader editorial team compiled a list of 36 iconic cars, reflecting its 36-year heritage, and asked its readers to vote online for their favorite. A total of 47,107 entries were submitted with each entrant selecting up to five cars from the shortlist. The Jaguar F-TYPE, the brand’s first two-seater sports car since the iconic E-Type, topped the poll with a total of 27,100 votes.

Jon Quirk, Auto Trader Editor-in-Chief, said: “The F-TYPE is a debut that’s every bit as brave and beautiful as the original E-Type, and a car that deserves its place on the final cover of Auto Trader magazine. Like Auto Trader, Jaguar thrives on its ability to adapt; its desire to innovate while remaining respectful of its heritage and, most importantly, its commitment to keeping customers at the core.”
