What about the $2500 Tata Nano, WORLD’s cheapest car end of story.

Better and safer than a still expensive $3k scooter

WELL DONE INDIA, I TAKE MY HAT OFF TO YOU!

Just maybe you guys CAN turn around Jag?

no matter how good job these tata guys do to rejuvinate these run down brands ….those wheatgrass fed blondes will like only like em if they will say on their side panel….so called MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN…it is very sad but that is a fact…cuz people are already checking with dealerships that they want range rover from uk..not the cheap version from INDIA…so change anything else but not the origin….

What the Blind JagMan is saying all the RELIABILITY ISSUE of Jag, will go away as soon as you sit inside a Jag.

Summing up the exercise of buying a Jag, you will be spending BMW level of cash to buy car that is as reliable as a Daewoo/Holden. I can understand why so many people are deserting Jags.

Firstly, Astro Boy: “what is a Jag good at”?????????
Are you kidding???? So you’ve never driven one, fair enough.
And Kenny, as for LR being the only worthwhile thing out of the two, is this from a standpoint of economic rationalism??
In that case, we should all be driving Barinas (- then the safety rating wouldn’t matter
I’d suggest to anyone considering knocking Jaguars, do a bit more research than:
(1) Word of mouth at pubs/crib-rooms/public toilets
(2) the Internet
(3) loser Lexus owners
(4) loser jap car fans

Actually go to a dealer and …..sit in one.
That’s all you need do in the short term.

btw, don’t waste your typing muscles with ‘facts and figures’, i won’t be reading any links to Redbook (what a joke they are – have any of them ever bought/owned a car?????)The proof of the Jag pudding is very much in the owning/driving, if you chooses to excersize some individuality.

Not being elitist, in fact Tata could work out a whole lot better than Ford just nicking the way-superior rear axle technology for their Tickfords and BA/BF range!

Also I think this Frugal fellow is dumb racist. He is struggling to accept the fact China and India are economically rising & Not so Great Britain is going backwards.

I think LR is only thing worth while out of the two. I think if TATA gets LR & J, they should move most of the production to India, or at least the low end models. The result will be many ppl will be able to afford LRs & Js. Also I think TATA will have struggle to sort out Js reliability issues, continuous loss of market share.

Problem is, if Tata learns the reliability secrets of L/R and introduces them to their models, Tatas will become even less reliable than they already are.
