Stillborn design for a coupé version of the regular Jag saloon. Looks pretty cool to me.

Nice…….perhaps the rear wheels would have been better slightly further forward…..rear view looks like the body would benefit from tapering the width ..would be a great project to build now

There was a two door Mk2 when we visited JLR Classic last year, looked very well proportioned

Ones I’ve seen before have just welded up the rear doors so the front doors don’t look long enough.

Retropower made the doors longer but more importantly they reshaped the rear of the room to give a slightly sleeker profile. A lot of work but it looks good

Fat brakes and a sleek interior.

They do build some rather nice cars. Love the variety of what they do
