I'll take one of each please
Hmmm, I was trying to decide between those two and my 1.6 Ford Focus as most awesome car ever....
They are shite.
🙄
I suppose you'd want a Zonda Maggot.
bearnecessities - MemberI suppose you'd want a Zonda Maggot.
No, that is shite too.
I prefer this one ... Eagle E-Type Lightweight Speedster.

Well I've just arrived in Sheffield to visit the parents to find my mum has bought an F-Type S. After the initial shock, I've been out for a drive and I can't imagine anyone *needing* any more car. It's comfortable, it's quick, it's gorgeous, it holds the road supremely well, the in-car entertainment is superb, it is (at the moment, at least in coupe form) fairly exclusive. Jaguar have really excelled themselves.
And this is from me who - up until now - has had a stripped down, suped up, highly strung, mental RX7 as the best car I've ever driven. At the moment, I'd take the Jag over another RX7.
How original, they've never had a wildly OTT chase between an Aston and a Jag before...
Oh...
nissan skyline gtr 35. quicker better engineered and more exclusive
But a terrible badge
I'm not old enough to drive either of those cars... maybe when I've 50.
nissan skyline gtr 35. quicker better engineered and more exclusive

What the hell have they done to that ^ ?!
Jenson interceptor, right? have max power had their hands on it 😉 😥
Of the 2 of the OP not really taken with either of them Aston at a push I guess.
The Jag. F Type is a lovely car though.
Neither it's time for a Maserati, haven't you seen the adverts 😆

And much uglier.
Does anyone really give a toss about exclusivity?

That is terrible. Genuinely horrible. But I guess there's an ass for every seat.

i like it....though i still think the original looks beautiful its just this one looks a bit more modern without being too OTT.
Fair enough, not my bag though, the Eagle E types are very nice though.
The up dating thing is quite hard to do though.

My own money would go on a GTR. I'm not old enough for an Aston and certainly not old enough for a Jag . A guy a work (bet he's 65) has an f type he says the build quality is shocking.
Front engined RWD V8 sports/gt for £100k? .....I think my money* would go on one of these.

Best avoid Maserati then, Friend of a freinds GT literally dismantled itself on the trip to the South of France 😆

I have an erection.
Wish the pic had a bit more light to it, looks great however worried if fully lit the front end may have a touch to much of the Corvette about it 😉
Rear 3/4 view is lovely though
A jag. But no sporty nonsense. A big, long, wide saloon.
been offered a masserati Granturismo 2001 plate with 26k on the clock...for 8k.
Very tempted...

But that's what Jags are all about!
Now [i]this[/i] is a Jag! Don't bother wrapping it, I'll take it now...

A guy at work (bet he's [b]35[/b]) has an f-type and its bloody lovely.
I can see where you've gone wrong there.
Astons were nice before the war - all the later ones are a bit naff.
Jags are for criminals and dirty old men (and women, obviously).
Gentlemen drive a Bristol.

Why didn't they stick some bigger wheels on the Growler???
Do like it as much now, something not quite right.
I'm not sure you can really improve on the original design aside of slightly wider wheels.

its bling innit bruv!!
something not quite right.
i know what you mean. the Lyonheart looks a bit XKR-ish fron the front, while the Growler looks a bit McLaren SLR-ish from the front. while they both have tried their best to replicate the silhouette of the original, from the rear they both seem a bit Corvette Stingray-ish
both are still stunning and therefore they would still go in my fantasy car collection
The front of the Growler reminds me a bit of the last Bristol

Yes, which isn't that pretty (being super picky 😉 )
Looks a bit cheap kit carish ( your kitcar/replica is nice though WCA having seen it in the flesh so don't take as an insult 😉 )

That's odd, cos the front of Bristols often makes me think of a Growler.
^^ the front end of that one looks more like a toyota celica
Loco - I designed my car* to my tastes so not too fussed if other people don't like it. I am always glad when they do like is though.
*Picky - not actually a kit car**. It is a bespoke built re-body of an existing car.
**Super picky - You can now buy kit car replicas of my car starting from £1995
Slightly O/T but I had to stop watching the video in the OP because it was littered with one of my pet hates; "Ast[i]i[/i]n Martin".
Aston, Aston, Aston, ASTON!
Like Aston Villa.
Sometimes your pet hate can be advantageous.
I have 6 original wire wheels from an Aston Martin DB4 for £80 from ebay because the guy posted them as "Astin Martin" wheels and had no pictures. Lucky find I thought
