What other names do you call the sagaris?

So far, I seem to using 'The Sag', 'Saggy', 'The Shaggeris', and 'The Slag'

How should if be pronounced?

We have always pronounced it with the emphasis on the second 'a' - 'sagaaaris', but I notice those on TV pronouncing it with a hard 'g' - 'sag-a-riss'.

Anyone?

"Saggy-arse" or "saggy" every time. Said in an affectionate way though.

Always thought it was similar to 'cigar'is. I seem to recall on JC's video which featured the prototype Sagaris he pronounced it this way, but on on the recent Top Gear show he pronounced it sag-a-ris. I favour the first

Agreed. Danielle corrected me when showing me the prototype at Le Mans (from Cigar-is to Sag-a-ris)

Well apparently it's a celtic battle axe so we need to ask some celts.

Maybe Jagaris is more apt?

According to TVR it's pronounced Sag-a-ris.
Must admit I thought it was sa-ga-ris before being corrected....
