What a rubbish car. Its got tyres that are going to land you 3 points and a fine the second you drift it off of the dealer's forecourt

Corrected

So you didn't meet him Joshy?

Still doubt it was 2BL, that's giving 2BL way too much credit!

You don't even need to drift it. 1.6mm of tread on 3/4s of the tyre's circumference. Those seem to be bald at some point on every part of the tyre!

Terrible car and shouldn't be ever put into production for that reason alone...

Nobody ever met him, just spoke to him on the phone. Hurfdurf posted some quite interesting stuff in GD about it all which made an awful lot of sense.

I tried searching but got nowhere, have you got a link?

The guy was a serial fantasist

For gods sake he even created a second account for his pretend daughter. He wasn't tooblacklines.

almost certainly been removed. When somebody said they were going to post on here the full details of his lies they were threatenned with violence. Thats what got him permabanned !

Can we talk about the Jag rather than get another thread locked talking about DM? The information is out there if people are inclined to look for it, so lets just leave it at that?

Lovely looking car...

Do you want one with a roof or not ?

J1nxy · 8 Sep 2011 at 12:05

Want a the coupe, not a convertible...

Featired in the latest Top Gear mag too. This interior looks the business

Leather, Alcantara, Carbon Fibre and more leather!

What's the big red button on the steering 'wheel'?

The display also functions as a real time ride info screen too like the GT-R except...way way way better!

Thats the 'push to pass' button.

The central dash airvents are only up for large cabin air cooling or heating demands and sit flush with the dash topper in normal mode.

What a ghastly picture. That looks like something from Thunderbirds. Lady Penelope would like that. :D

mrk · 8 Sep 2011 at 17:19

I think it's very "loud" (the cabin colour) - The whole car is very "loud" so goes perfectly well together!

Fr0dders · 8 Sep 2011 at 17:26

theres no way the production car will look like that !

Most of that alcantara will be replaced by plastic. And the leather on the dash, centre console etc.. will all be optional, if available at all.

mrk · 8 Sep 2011 at 17:28

Why would the leather be optional? the XKR etc are leather all round with minimal plastic!

I'll eat my hat if Jag make that centre column plastic in the road car as standard.
