New Jag 4x4 spotted

[onyx39]

Might be of interested to you Jag types.
Just saw this filling up in my local petrol station in Camberley.

I didn't really think it would happen when I first read about it a year or so ago.
Everyone else has done it....

Everyone is so I'm surprised that they haven't done it already. I am looking at either buying a Jag XE or a LR disco sport but I'm not sure if I should wait until this comes out now. Does anyone know when it's out? If it's not less than a year I might try and squeeze in the sport or the XE before trying the new big cat

I saw the same car nearer its home in Gaydon yesterday. Looks great and sure to be a success unlike that Bentley abortion !

Yeah, looks excellent, especially with the wallpaper. Other than that looks like a big 4x4.

I really think the world will laugh out loud at the Bentley SUV (unless they play football, and have no taste).

Saw this on the M40 on Friday. It looked a bit taller than I was expecting.

If anyone was watching the Tour de France today, Team Sky's Jag F-Pace was spotted a couple of times in it's carbon fibre effect wrap The 'usual suspects' XF Sportbrakes were also out to play.

VE15 EWA - comes back as a 2.0 diesel, Jaguar website still has it as "Coming soon" but does mention the tie-in with Team Sky. http://www.jaguar.co.uk/jaguar-range/f-pace/f-pace...

Thought it looked good on t'telly

Froome for Sky will be in Yellow tomorrow so it means the lead Team Car will be the Jag it will be seen all around the world so not bad advertising.

I hadn't realised Jaguar are intending to align this new 4x4 with the F-Type! Really??! Seems an odd thing to do. Can you imagine the comments of Porsche had called the Cayenne the 9114x4 or something

[JonnyVTEC]

The fact the Cayenne is a Porsche is enough of a sporting link anyway.... F pace just ties better to the F type than the saloons.

Nah, can't see that - it's a blooming chelsea tractor when it comes down to it.

But the most popular of the saloons is the XF
F just seems to be Jaguars new favourite letter

[ChrisR99]

I spotted one in Death Valley yesterday, also saw an XE driving about!

OK, that's a fair point.

But the XF isnt sporty....

[RobGT81]

The XF RS isn't slow

[RichB]

Just had a thought, they could revive the letter S from the old S-Type and call it the EsPace. Oh hang on...

The F-Pace only appeared in the time trial on stage 1, therefore although Froome has now got the yellow jersey, he will be followed by the usual SKY XF Sportbrakes, unless Jaguar role out the F-PACE again.

As the F-PACE's potential main markets are Russia, China, Brazil and Middle East I'm not sure how many follow the Tour De France?

If it doesn't match the stiff competition in the luxury SUV market it will be known as the 'ofF PACE'. It's up against it's own family from LandRover Evoque, Discovery Sport, Range Rover Sport not to mention the Germans, AudiQ3/Q5, BMW X3/X5 and Mercedes GLC,GLE,M classes, oh and Porsche Macan
