Classic Jag Lover?

So, you love those sexy looks of the classic Jag MkII and S-Type, but always felt they were, well, maybe a bit large?

Plus the fact that, being a car of the sixties the interiors always look dated and in need of a more modern look and feel?

Well, you need a Mitsuoka Viewt

Now that ticks all the boxes... Gorgeous!!

what on earth is that?

Born_2_Kill_83 · 11 Feb 2008 at 15:23

That is awful, and I would rather have the 60's interior

Bill101 · 11 Feb 2008 at 15:23

All Jag exterior, all Nissan interior. What a combo!

That is a Crime. Three & a half grand for an L reg auto with No Tax & No MOT :eek:

Looks God awful as well, Poor car. Only a Scrap yard can help it.

Well, it appears to be basically a nissan micra with a new front and rear modelled on the Jaguar MkII.

It is also one of the funniest cars I've ever seen. Absolutely hideous

Rhetorical question tbh

Monstrosity.

You're about a decade late for this

I quite like Viewts. In the flesh they somehow 'work'...

And yet a lifetime too early!!

I know youre tastes are sometimes considered somewhat less than mainstream, but suggesting that "works" is like suggesting that knocking on Lisa Riley's back door after she's been out for a night on the beer and curry may be a pleasant experience.

Sorry, I just do not believe you!

Slam it on some 20's and it'll look sweet!

Much better

Yep, I love classic jags and yes, I hate that thing.

Theres a whole load of different cars based on the K11 Micra over in Japan, the Viewt being just one of them. Chances are Penski will know most of the others. Im sure Mitsuoka make another odd'ish looking car based on a K11 Micra.

Jaguarski?

Have you 'met' one yet?

As I said, looks bloody weird in photos but somehow it just 'works'...

I've seen a few pics of one on 13x7 SSR Mesh rims before with a healthy drop. Ooof.

I'm quite open minded when it comes to cars, but i know's a pile when i see's one.

K.C. Leblanc · 11 Feb 2008 at 23:14

Very strange idea, I think it would have worked better if they'd used a reworked Nissan Figaro interior.

DannyW · 11 Feb 2008 at 23:18

that interior is shocking

Check out the rest of the range. The stunning Galue :| And some kind of strange sports car. What in the hell?
