Back in 1979, my father bought a beautiful red Jaguar, I believe it was an XJ12 (it was a sedan, and had a V12). It was a gorgeous car, though mechanically it left something to be desired. Recently he purchased a 1967 Series I E-type coupe (primose yellow). Again, a beautiful old Jag.

The fact that I grew up around these wonderful old cars probably explain's my hostility around the whole Jaguar/Ford thing, even if Ford doesn't deserve all the blame. I hope Jaguar get's back on track designing their exteriors and especially their interiors, because they were great cars back in the day.
