Title: The Jaguar has gone.....before and after images.
Post by: Field Marshal Dr. Opti on 12 October 2017, 13:37:13
Subjective, I know, but in my view the arse end looks much improved.

I used dental floss and a little heat from a hairdryer to soften the adhesive. Once the letters were  removed a drop of white spirit cleaned up the gluey residue. :y

Excellent  :y

Fully agree adding that word was just stupid.

Looks much better  :)

Should have added some extra letters so it said JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG across the arse end.  :y
How do we upload pics to here these days without photobucket btw?  :-\

You’re very brave, Opti, doing that to your expensive motor car. I’m not sure if I’d detract from the original, trade in values and all that.  :-\

I was thinking that adding  TATA may have some relevance ::) :D

A British Leyland badge could be added. I'm tempted. :)

I concur, the adding of the work JAGUAR is just wrong.  They are doing that across the range now, from XEs to XJs  :'(

Unfortunately it's the only way to differentiate it from the larger Korean efforts :-\

That wouldn't be a concern for me. I like it not to stand out too much, and having JAGUAR (in rather crap lettering as well) splattered across the back is perhaps a little pretentious.  The Leaper on the back and Growler on the front is more than enough badge.

You have a big growler on the front of your pussy ? Best you get the razor out.  ;D ;D ;D ;D
