I had one for 26k miles and it was brilliant, I only moved to the Velar as it lacked gadgets.
That said, just about to order another F-Pace now the specs have been revised.
Mine was the 180bhp diesel, 0-60 was around 8 seconds ish from memory and it had great road manners with economy on the commute of circa 50mpg. The F-Pace works as rear wheel drive under normal running and only transfers power to the front when needed (Velar is permanent 4X4)
The only real diesel issue is the AdBlue systems (as per all cars of the that time) with occasional NOx sensor faults and clogged DEF injectors.
My biggest advise is NOT to service them at 21k miles and 2 years, do them at half that and timing chain wear is no longer an issue.
DPF no big issue on these, its a longitudinal engine install so has a close coupled unit unlike the transverse version on the D8 platform
Auto box is great, the ZF8 is probably the best auto out there at the minute and 'just works', they can be serviced a
s the mileage gets high and parts are common across many marks
