March 7, 201114 yr comment_348494 To get back to the original question;I mentioned this a couple of years ago.I came out of a shop to find a young bloke wandering around my "PRECIOUS". As I approached he asked, "What is it?".I said, "It's a prototype"."I never heard of them" he said."Do you know what an "E" type Jag looks like?" I asked.When he said he did, I told him that, some years ago, because the "E" type was so expensive, Jag had decided to create a smaller version but had dropped the idea for unknown reasons.When I pointed out the long, sloping front and the hatchback , I had him by the short and curlies and he said that he could see the resemblance once the design similarities were pointed out to him.Rick.Oh yair, by the way, .... I did tell him the truth. I'm not that cruel. But it sure was fun.
