Has anyone seen the new Jaguars?

Has anyone seen the new Jaguars? :O

Their new lineup is beautiful. I saw this first on on the road today and thought it was a Bentley at until I got up close.

Sorry, but that looks like every other car that has the teardrop shape, large-diameter rims and low-profile tires. I wonder how they keep "the smooth Jaguar ride" with those suckers?

However, I do like the slanted grille in front. Nice touch.

Designed by a Scotsman who used to work for Aston Martin and designed the DB7 and Vanquish.

Some say he designed his first jags via the gift of tracing paper.

That's an XK8 and a DB7 btw.

Fuck the names are even copies, I never thought of that before.

Damn that is a nice car

I had a '67 Plus 4.
With the sidecurtains off you can lay your hand flat on the ground...that's how low you sit in one of those.
True story.

Have you driven a 7.

They are fucking low as fuck.

They also understeer into a corner and oversteer on the way out. At least the one I drove did. Automotive genious/madness.

I've driven a 205, that's like 198 better than a 7 or something.

Good point, well presented.

A Caterham 7?
No, I haven't.

If you get the chance you should take it.

Given the chance, I'll drive almost anything.
The Caterham is definitely high on the list of hoonworthy cars and I certainly would love to try it.
