Why is it pink?
Exactly who are Jaguar trying to appeal to. :)
-
Whilst the E- Type was once described as the most beautiful car ever made ( which I agree with 100 percent) who or what designed this monstrosity?

Not their traditional customer base, is my guess. ;D

Looks OK from the side? ??? :)
Well whatever Jag are playing at, they've certainly got everyone talking about them and their cars. ;)

Jaguar reckons that they will only take about 15% of existing owners with them......because they are male, pale, and stale. They won't want to be associated with 'New Jaguar'
Presumably the new 85% will need to be woke and progressive.....mainly shirt lifters. ::) :)

Isn't that a Daimler? :)

We had a Daimler xj ( or (Damiler as the mot man wrote) . Cheaper to insure than a Jaguar! And better equipped

It's just a pity they've nothing to sell.

It's OK, TB.
The old Jags like your XJ and my XFR are driven by people with hairy swinging balls.
The new cars will probably be driven by men who have an unhealthy interest in boys bottoms. ::)

Similar to the Chrysler Crossfire. ::)

Clergy?

Copy nothing is an embarrassing slogan for a car that looks like Saab's Aero-X of 20 years ago crashed through venetian blinds.
Although it is less embarrassing than the advert ::)

Didn't Sir William Lyons of old Jag fame say a Jaguar should be 'a copy of nothing' ::)
Very similar almost a copy. 8)
-
Thing is, Jaguar hope to attract young woke progressives to replace the ' neanderthal old duffers'
Problem is, the cars will start from £100,000+ and generally speaking there are not large numbers of young people who have that kind of money.
Many are still living at home because they can't afford to get on the property ladder......or pay £3000 each month to rent a one room shithole in London. :)

And the advert itself has similarities to the 1984 Apple Macintosh advert, which featured weirdly dressed people and a woman weilding a slegde hammer. ::) Jaguar has alienated it's audience now, which could prove a costly mistake. You may have noticed that the leaping Jaguar is coming from the opposite direction on the new emblem, which could imply that he's now batting for the other side. :)

By jove, you're right. >:D
I've just given it a google.

Rear wheel drive attached to a twin carb fed 1800 lump! What was not to like for a slightly unhinged 19 year old who couldn't afford a Capri?! ;D

That actually sounds quite good in isolation.
Sadly it as joined to wheels and suspension from a 17th century 'gallows cart'.. >:D

I expect that the suspension was probably as good as a 14th century gallows cart to be fair, but I didn't used to let little details like that worry me back in the day! :y

Much like myself. I didn't worry about tax and insurance, or being 3 times over the drink drive limit. I'm a reformed character now though. ::)

You're being generous. The latter didn't require its lower trunnion joints to be replaced every 3 weeks. ::)

My Old Man used to keep a beady eye on things like that, and I used to get the raised eyebrow over things like the Tax In Post card in the window. ::) ;D
He was a Magistrate.... :)

Judging by the reaction on here I reckon they are absolutely right!, ;D ;D
As a female of a certain age, I love it! Looks really futuristic and nothing like the Jags of yesterday, like my favourite, the MK10.
It does appeal to me, especially as it has the anti-male groping device separating the front seats; brilliant!! ;D ;D >:D
As for who can afford it; well there are plenty of wealthy young people and maybe older ones, of both genders who will also love it and want one, like now! :D ;)
The age of yesterday cars IS coming to an end 8) >:D

Looks a bit like the product of a sexual triste between a Chrysler crossfire and a 300c...

To have a toyboy would imply a heterosexual relationship, and I dont think thats the market that jaGUar is aiming for. :-\

I think youre right. :y I read a review where the Jaguar CEO said he loved the new names and was going to adopt them (tongue in cheek obviously). As previously mentioned by Sir Tig, he mentioned Faguar for the gays and Draguar for the cross dressers, so hes clearly happy the way things are going.
