Saw one of these in the flesh on the M4 today.

I saw it in the mirror, couldn't work out what it was. Possibly some sort
of Maserati? Got alongside, *still* couldn't tell what it was. Was
shocked to find it was a Jag when I finally saw the awful rear end. It's
a bit ill proportioned IMO.

Not impressed. Shouldn't a Jag be instantly recognisable? All the others
in the range are..

saying:

Haven't seen one in the flesh yet.

The pics make it look quite "family" with the XF. Mind you, I'm not that
impressed with the XF, either...

Gawd. You're right. I've not seen pics of the arse before - and no
wonder. The bootlid looks very "last-ditch" Rover 45, with lights nicked
from the Lancia Thesis.

Doesn't look unlike an XF.
