sitting@home : Sweet, I used to like the XJ coupe in the 70’s, until I found out it was a factory chop job and the vinyl roof was there to cover up the bad weld line.

Really? I liked them too. What a disappointment. I remember when Jaguar advertised the XJ coupe as “The Corporate Sports Car.”

And a car magazine relabeled it “The Corpulent Sports Car.”

…and thus the XF becomes Jaguar’s CTS.

But seriously, how is that F-Type not in production? It’s downright gorgeous – notably better than the current XK.

The F-Type concept looked great. Let’s hope the actual production car isn’t obviously badge engineered. http://www.ritzsite.net/RAI01CON/Jaguar_F-type_2000_f3q.JPG

Is kind of wong timing, if it had been a couple of yrs earlier it would have helped.
Hope the Indians can survive all these turmoils.

At least Tata seem to have a clue about where Jag should be competing and not just charge full steam into volume production like Ford tried with the X-type.
