It looks like a Z4M Coupe back with a Ferrari 456 front.

Does look bloody gorgeous.

Dave_3 · 09-07-2011, 06:31 AM

Very nice.

AS BMW makes blander and blander offerings (or some might say ugly with the new 1 series) a good looking car is breath of fresh air.

And you just know that it will ride AND handle well.

I've owned a few Jaguars in the past. Maybe again ...

Very nice.

Hopefully looks that way once released.

rjs · 09-07-2011, 07:10 AM

0-62 in 4.4
41mpg
looks fantastic

nice

TomF32 · 09-07-2011, 07:56 AM

The love child of a ferrari california, nissan 350/370 and a Jag E-Type at the back!

Feckin' gorgeous though...

Looks awesome

Tippo · 09-07-2011, 09:41 AM

Looks nice then again the Alfa 8C is still nicer.

I'd agree, but the 8C was never in the same price bracket as the Jag, and even s/hand is far more pricey than 50K (around +130K, the 8C if you're very,very lucky)

The Jag looks stunning and the performance ticks the box for me.

zltm089 · 09-07-2011, 01:48 PM

wowwwwwwwwwwwwww....looks really good!!!!....and fast aswell!...

Tippo · 09-07-2011, 02:55 PM

Yep re-read articles and noticed that price. Jag could be onto a winner with that. Nice.

no_ball · 09-07-2011, 04:19 PM

rear diffuser straight copy of the Aston Virage, rear screen copy of the aston V8 Vantage, front end current XK8, with some Datsun 350z theme running through it, a very confused style. Otherwise, lovely..

Vaheed1 · 09-07-2011, 06:59 PM

I reckon the new XJ is possibly the nicest looking luxury car I've ever seen. Gorgeous.

MEGA · 09-08-2011, 04:13 AM

It looks like a bit like a parts bin special but some how it works.

For me, personally, I feel I'm just not of the right generation to buy a jag?? Maybe in 20 years?? But if I could get past the badge then this car definitely ticks the right buttons price/performance and looks wise!

no_ball · 09-08-2011, 07:42 AM

and at 50k, there have to be some made in india parts there.

PhilL · 09-08-2011, 09:13 AM

If they can get it on sale with little visual/spec changes at that price point they'll absolutely fly out of the factory.. It's the car Jag need to appeal to a younger audience (of which I consider myself!!!).

I've never seen myself wanting a Jag (particularly after inheriting a 2.0d X Class company car with bodykit some years ago; utter pile of steaming turd) but I REALLY like this.

Baby Dave · 09-11-2011, 02:21 PM

Looks very nice

Dr G13 · 09-11-2011, 04:03 PM

That is very very very nice and if it really comes in at 50k, it's a bargain!

Palmnuts · 09-11-2011, 05:01 PM

At £50k, that could be a real possibility for me when it finally goes on sale in a couple of years. I'm warming more and more to the latest Jags....I keep watching the prices of XFR's - 2009/10 examples are mid-high £30k's (with just 7-10k miles on the clock) and even less for 2009 examples with 20k on the clock.

Forget your leggy and well used 2005 M5's for £20k....an 18-24 month old XFR with 20k on the clock for low £30k's really is a performance bargain!
