I drive something like 35k for work, and as a result, tend to do a fair amount of mental car spotting...

I do like the F type, but Im confused on the exhaust exit vs models.

I convinced myself that the F type R was the only model to have a pair of twin exhausts, and all others used a central pair...

But Im convinced I saw an S version with quad pipes...

Put a Pher ou of his confusion please chaps.....

And for interest...I prefer the quad setup as I think it looks balance, whereas the central pair make the rear of the car look a little "boaty" if that makse sense ?

What made you think it was an S and not an R?
Badging?

The only external differences are the exhaust (and badge), and bigger brakes on the R but they could also be optioned on the S.

Unless modified exhaust; if it’s got quad pipes it’s a V8 (R and S)

Central exit with two big rounds tips is a V6 (S and non S)

Big rectangle centre exit is the new 4 banger
Thanks, that makes sense.....
