Wait, people thought this car was ugly?

It IS ugly, inbred.

Yes, and so is the Mercedes it copied.

jag had the quad bug lights as far back as the 50s.

I hate these POS so much. If you ever have worked on one, then you know exactly what I mean.

Not flush and angled back ones (on a rounder body) like the W210 cursed us with making popular. The X300 XJ immediately before that S type still had upright sealed beams on a boxier body that still look alright. The flush non-sealed beams on the X350 don't look good either.

this is like coping and saying you invented the cheese burger, and then when someone points to a much earlier cheese burger, you say "yea, but i invented the one with bacon".

look up the development of the S type. they were taking after the early jags. they weren't looking at merc shit at all.

An inevitable outcome of aerodynamic advancement.

Not the whole thing, just the body lines, the ass-end and obviously the fugly-ass front.

No it's a Jaguar retard

>>28576205
Pretty much.
Same story with alfa GTV/Spider with that boxy ass, ridiculed when it came out, now it'll mog everything around it in the average parking lot in the current year

It looks like a jumping spider sucking a lemon.

>>28573502 (OP)

Pig ugly compared to pic from Jaguars sister company which was launched at the same time.

How are the supercharged models? I see lots of them but very few base V8's. I might have to get the supercharged model at my $6500 budget.

>>28579473
A bit more whiney than the regular ones. The base car is what you budget servicing for.

>>28573502 (OP)
Compared to the beautiful machinery Jaguar used to turn out?
Yes, the new models are hideous.

Cousin had it early 2000, it's actually comfy to ride.

Are you the cretin claimed to have been doing 155 when a cross-wind blew you across 3 lanes and caused a sphincter malfunction?
