Oh Nick, you Z thief 
Atleast when I take something from here I usually give DDK the credit.

OK. I admit I knicked it from the Zclub.net forum. Amazing how many DDKers there are over there.

Re: Ugly E type
even if the non standard colour and borrowed details of other models had been tasteful...the panel gaps are awful...particularly the bonnet shut lines
What a waste

Re: Ugly E type
I love old Jags. But this? It looks like it's been customised at Halfords!
Dread to think what the interior is like..
In reality it's probably a modern XK8 in an e-type shell. When will people learn, I see Beachams are at it again with the Mk11, but if you look at their offerings from twenty odd years ago they're so dated, whereas an original is timeless!
You'd have thought they'd have learnt by now!
Reminds me of the episode of Grand Designs where the guy "future proofed" his house by installing a load of extra network cables......
WiFi? Why What???

It doesn't matter if you speak your mind, because those that matter don't mind and those that mind don't matter.......!
Lusting after a 30/98, will settle for a 23/60.

If that's the design they finally decided on - I wonder what the ones they discarded looked like...
