Yep ... price of car plus duty plus 23% vat then vehicle registration tax.VRT is another 35% roughly again on higher end cars ... as I say double the UK price to allow for exchange rates and tax and it's pretty close to the price here 👀

It wouldn’t be so bad if they didn’t just spunk it away when they get it.
 
I'd have sold the 2 modern Jags and kept the XJ Coupe 😮

A lot of the comments said the same. I doubt he’ll get back what he’s spent on it either.
I get why he’s kept the Project Jags though - he was involved in them as on the payroll at JLR Special Projects when they were conceived, and the 7 is the first one I think. And he uses the other as a track car aswell as other trips.

If it was my collection I’d sell the Jag Coupe (actually prefer the saloon…it’s more balanced looking) and the Porsche - if it’s worth what he’s saying, c. £300+k, I’d cash it and get a 993 Turbo S.
 
I know it’s against popular opinion, but I’d take the Espada over the Jag…and I like Jags, especially XJs.

Interesting he expected the Jag to make 85k. You can reproduce it for 110k in the spec you want, so a chunk was because of the history and fame.

Both lovely cars though. And I’d fancy that blue RS4 too.
