> [@2TurboZ](#): > > Well sort of, see Jaguar was its own company with no influence from Ford, then they got bought and their product has become less quality items… LOL, ask older xj owners how “quality” their pre-ford jaguars were! least the ford ones start! “are my windscreen wipers feeling up to cranking this morn?” > [@2TurboZ](#): > > the other things you have described are parent companies that spawned a “better” more luxurious line up. Ie. Lexus, Infiniti, Audi hmmm. volkswagen was founded in 1934 by professor ferdinand porsche, audi was founded in 1909 by august horch. hell, even auto union was 1932. and lets not get started on vw/audi’s sparkling reliability records either. :roll2: ford will put $934 million into jaguar this year. before ford, jaguar couldn’t afford to fix current model’s flaws. now they are introducing new models that are better quality, more sporting and enthusiast driven, and that increase the company’s bottom line. all aluminum sedans? check. new sports car models? check. the same people that hate on a mondeo-based X-type will swoon over a jetta-based audi A3. “hey man, your lexus is just a rebadged camry!” c’mon, like this is new stuff. ford has been nothing but good for jaguar. sorry, but this wears on me too. ---

umm i just think its kinda sad that ppl buy an s-type thats supposed to be a classy jaguar, but still drives like a fucking taurus, its not about re-badging its about being a sad excuse for a luxury car, might as well just get a taurus with leather and save urself a buttload of money ---

as sad as people that buy a lexus es that drives like a camry? why not buy a leather lined camry and save a buttload of money? it’s not like you don’t get all the same dirty bits as the toyota. i-m-a-g-e btw: the s-type is on the lincoln ls platform, not the taurus. ---
