Maserati v Ferrari

[BennyD]

According to the road tests I've read, the V6 is the better car to have especially the V6S. Apparently the V8 is likely to be a little too much for the majority of drivers.

Saw one last week coming back from Bedford..Stunning car and a very desirable Jag...

 

[Phil H]

I sat in a peach of an F-Type at the weekend, and the very encouraging rep told me there's some quite heavy discounting on the price of new Jags. I don't think he was too impressed when he saw me drive off in my Pug 206 though.

F Type looks great but no boot space at all if you carry a spare tyre...makes the 4200 rear look huge. I have one next to me and its just a weekend toy rather than a car for trotting round Europe in

so no golf bats unlike the 4200, bag and bats, now that's nice.

Who needs a spare tyre if only a weekend toy....;-)

Spare tyre not needed

Take a look in EVO 183 and you will see just how small it is. Two carrier bags either side and that's your lot...Not the most stylish entry to a nice hotel in Monaco with two Asda bags (sorry Andy, no offence intended)

With discounts being offered and dealers with sales quotas to meet I reckon the 1 year old car will be sub 40k for the V6 which still looks expensive next to a Boxster which has 2 boots and a better badge.

If they forget the V8 and just made one V6 with big turbos then priced it at £44,995.00 they wouldn't have to discount and they would have stormed the market. Typical Jag.

When is the coupe due? Shame it is to loose the e-type style hatch opening sideways.

 

[Andyk]

The Coupe was to die for Pete...Loved the concept...Looked perfect.

 

[conaero]

That's the first Jag I would buy, stunning!

 

[Andyk]

Me to Matt....Really looking forward to seeing the finished car.........If Maserati are bringing out a two seater this is the car it needs to beat on style I think.....

 

[philw696]

It looks fantastic but will it excite or disappoint. One thing for sure with Maserati or Ferrari is they excite. The only thing to take it away can be big costs.

 

[safrane]

The cars have been received well by the press Phil and they do sound awesome. As you know the guy next door works for Grange Jaguar and brings home a number of demonstrators including three of these over the last month...makes the house shake when he drives under it.

 

[MAF260]

That coupe concept looks amazing. I wonder how much the final version will change from this?

Phil, I'm sure they will excite as the roadster reviews have brilliant...add a stiffer body to it with a roof and it can only get better....for me the concept excites just standing still....A spot on piece of design.

 

[dem maser]

they been doing concepts for years....no jag has ever looked like the concept

 

[Andyk]

The F Roadsters does Dem....not far removed from the concept.....I think they are on to a winner with this one....

 

[dem maser]

it does look good......
