Bin the wheels - there are some good historic Jag alloy designs - and bin the twin headlights & the vents/ducts in the side, neither of which were ever a Jag styling feature. Then we might be getting somewhere.

It's not a bad effort but compare it with the XK180, F-Type concept or the XJ13 and you'll see the difference between a good effort and the real thing. Any of those 3 is a true classic and manage to look better in real life than any picture can show.

Thing is Jag want to draw the influences from those epic cars you mentoned, but not replicate it. And to be honest I think this looks better than those 3

Sorry to break form but i dont like the rear.

To me it looks like they simply 'pinched' the roof and floor together til they met.

the rest is stunning, but i just dont like the rear profile.

"Swedish firm Visualtech has announced bold plans to build its 21st century take on the E-Type"

nothing to do with jaguar it seems, i do like the rear end though would prefer the single headlights at the front though
