[bomber harris]

Looking at the new Jag advert reminded me of cerb with not such brutal lines
..anyone else agree

Like a poor mans DB9/Vantage, with Hyundai lights..... in short, it looks pump!

[Cooky]

I love it, but i've always had a thing about Jags, anyone know any figures for it cost? performance? etc

[HAZE]

I'd say more Aston like than TVR.

[bigd1877]

designed by the same guy who worked on the DB 9 so I hear.
Jag make a habit out of making there car's look like aston's
will cost around £60k new wait 18 months you will be able to pick one up for £20k lol

[itsallyellow]

does look nice though.

does anyone else think jag has an "old man" image??

I agree with cirvy - front lights have more than a whiff of hyundai

I really do not like the front of the car, especially the intake, looks just like any other Ford. Unfortunately, it is the only view of them that I see - in my rear view mirror

[UncleDave]

Nah definately not Cerb-like.
I saw DB9 the instant the pic loaded too... not something i'd go for myself, but s'pose there had to be an improvement in styling due

It wasn't a bad thought, but it was the first thought I had, when I saw the ad on telly.

Ian Callum's the Jag design guru, although not sure he was involved with the DB9. He certainly was with the earlier AMs though.

I have a mate who works as a tech for a major Jag franchise who's off to Coventry next week for a course on the car - he's looking foward to the R model especially which I don't think has been announced yet.

They're all bloody Fords for Goodness sake !

Tivs are the ultimate in one-off-manship !

Who designed the bodies for the Cerb and The Tuscan BTW ?
