Cool. When will jag make a real car though. XJR-15 and XJ220 were great, but very limited production and are both 10 years old now. What I mean is, they don't have a mass produced sports car with a manual or alot of grunt. I feel they need to make a car to go with some fo what the worlds best has to offer. Or maybe Ford have chosen Aston Martin to do such things and just kept jag they way they are doing things now.

Jag have some pretty big concepts on the go so hopefully one of them might get a green light.

the XJR-15 was an awsome race car even if it never won any races and used to spin off everytime you tried to accelirate :lmao:

I like some of the new jags but can't beat an old E-type Jag nothing better then that imo :lmao: ^_~

Same here. The e type was a classic. Also have a soft spot for the SS.

My fav is the XK8. I just can't help staring at them. E-Type is a genuine classic tho.
