    I'd rather buy a Tata Nano. Less than 5% of the price and you'd get yourself a new car from the same company that made this

    Besides the addition of the DRL's is it different at all from before? Lazy effort.

    So what? It's a mild facelift. Some people just don't get the difference between facelifts and new models (like my 78 year old uncle who buys a new Corolla every 2 years).

    What is the point of this thread actually? Is it meant to be ironic or has the OP been on a remote island the last 5 years and recently discovered the existence of this car:confused:?

    Looks the same as the old one apart from them finally getting rid of the orange indicators from the head lamps.

    I find it very hard to get excited about any Jag.
    (that said, id take a spin in an XJ220 if it was offered, even if it is hideously ugly)

    Not astoundingly good looking, but seems to tick all the right boxes?

    I think its a great looking car. Always was. Its not news though.

    Edit - I meant the new Jaguar XK. The XJ220 I don't think is ugly, a bit bland maybe.

    Theres not one straight edge on the car and they had horrible wheels. It just extentuates the typical design lines of Jag that I personally do not like.

    Then there was the interior - even worse!

    And to think it came out just over a year before this:

    Now, in my opinion, that is a beautiful car!

    Was wondering that myself also. Looks like a bit of low rate panel beating to me.
