For the convertibles especially, very expensive.Including the series 3 too.

I bet it will end up in rich men's collections and rarely seen out on the road where it should be especially given the 600bhp supercharged motor

Really needs to be out on the road, where people can see & listen to it.Plus they are building it, which is a site to see.I think it looks awesome.I wonder what else they could make.

Looks absolutely fantastic, however Jaguar have a habit of whetting our appetite then not putting their well received concepts into production.

Looks superb, and all the better than many current in-house Jaguar designs as they've paid attention to the shutlines and panel intersections; it actually flows.

Something Jaguar never seem to get right these days; with awkwards panel intersections and shutlines (XJ, XF, XK etc.), not to forget teh stupid over-emphasis on silly oversized grilles

S1 DHC E-type looked good, but the 2+2 S2 and S3 were ugly, especially when they raised the bumper height to conform with US federal regulations.
