United Kingdom 2016 Discovery 4 3.0 TDV6 Landmark LE Auto Santorini BlackDiscovery 4

This is the XE I have as a loan car whilst my FFRR is in for a software update. It had 900 miles on the clock and being it’s a 74 plate, would have been amongst the last batch of XE’s to be registered.

It doesn’t seem that long ago that the XE was launched. No doubt it shares a platform with a LR model, but even so the development costs would have been significant. Which must make the decision to cease all production a costly one.

XE was the first vehicle off D7A platform, which then delivered XF, F PACE and Velar, so has ad a pretty good run of models off it.

Yes, I hadn’t realised the XE went on sale in 2015. Time flies!

I think this bit is the key information about the new Jag line up:

Quote:
These cues are set to feature prominently in the Jaguar's upcoming four-door electric GT, which will be the first in a three-car line-up due from 2026.

The production car, which recently began road testing, will pack north of 575bhp and have a range of more than 430 miles. It will be priced in excess of £100,000, positioning it as a rival for the Porsche Taycan.


They're doing the same as they did with LR - making them expensive, top end products. You can/could get an XF for less than £40k.

How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they were always going to have to do from the very beginning: SIT DOWN AND TALK!"

It’s all over the radio stations I’ve been listening to today, so in that regard the marketing campaign is a success. Other than the reaction is largely negative that is.

The Land Rover dealer as what today reckons the most expensive models will be c.£200k. Which makes me think that the target demographic for the new range will be those who actually will remember the Jaguar heritage/history and wouldn’t mind the familiar old logo’s.

Do you think the drug dealers will still prefer the RRS and FFRR then? Is jaguar lacking in the street cred department? Whistle

After a bit of head scratching I think it’s been modelled on lady Penelope’s rolls from thunderbirds. Drive on Parker!
