I hear the MP's wife has left him. She wrote him a John Deere letter...

Strikes me someone from engineering, ops or procurement (maybe supported by some kaizen consultants) rather than a marketing exec would have been better placed to lead a car company with a reliability problem. Be interested to hear what the Jag Classic guys make of the forthcoming product

Re: Tomorrow's Matt cartoon
Is anyone buying jags these days ? I’d imagine jaguar as it stood was only going one way anyway.
Be interesting to see wether this is a very clever campaign to get people talking about them or a misguided mistake

I always thought the F-Type (not F-Pace), especially the coupe, was a proper Jaguar with curves, poise and performance but they were never going to be a high-volume manufacturer…

Re: Tomorrow's Matt cartoon
From what I read they’re hoping to pivot to an even higher end, lower volume manufacturer somewhat accelerated by going all electric and the added price.
The shift in brand positioning and trying to tap into a new demographic (primarily overseas) is part of this and looks on the face of it to be a bit of a shite or bust strategy. Time will tell if it works!
