While Jaguar understood not to eff situations up, the same apparently cannot be alleged of Jaguar dealers, as evidenced by the photo above. TTAC’s Justin Berkowitz came all over currently car on screen in his local shopping mall and was understandably horrified to see who the dealer elected to quality circumstances up by sticking an old-school leaper affirmative on the hood. It’s a disaster, seem to be desire a gain who needs to be removed and biopsied. So, remember kids: how the automakers do not screw up, dealers can… and considering the opportunity, will.

 Unlike the concept that looked like a smaller version of the previous generation XK, the production roadster is likely to take cues from new Jags, including the recently launched XF and the upcoming XJ. Power is expected to be provided by a variant of the current 3.0-liter Duratec, and while a turbocharged, direct-injected V6 variant of Ford’s EcoBoost might not be out the question, it remains highly unlikely. The other question would be the name. Now that Jaguar has a pattern with XF, XK and XJ, it seems unlikely the new roadster will get badged as an F-Type. Do we hear XD, hearkening back to the old D-type?

In what seems like an official bookend to the sale of Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford to Tata, the European Union, like the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, has given its official seal of approval to the deal. The E.U. had received no complaints regarding the impending purchase, so approval of the $2.3 billion deal had been expected. In fact, the “simplified procedure” used by the European Commission has never ended up with anything but acceptance. No more speed bumps appear ahead of the Indian automaker, which previously had specialized in small and inexpensive vehicles. Now that these formalities are over and done with, hopefully we can simply look forward to what an injection of cash can do to the two classic British marques.
