I’d hate this to fail - observers many with no clue - written off as dreadful relaunch and horrible design This is a good car with a lot of merit Maybe an extra will be an adult logo and a side profile cat - built up out of stripes of course 🙄 On the boot 🤭

I hope people look at this seriously Appreciate the off the cuff on-line derogatory remarks made by people who’d never be in market A lot to like with little of the baggage of other marques Something about this says this is us - now get a look at the owner first the complete picture

As for the back I’m only taking two extra passengers under duress for longer than a quick drop off If had the money not in market for a limo

I really like Speaks to me in a way other cars in group(s) do not Deceptively simple yet imposing - I figure allows owner’s personality to shine, when step out A problem if you don’t have one If had money prior to today would not be buying a Bentley or an Aston (Stroll) etc etc For reasons

Absolutely In my one and only test After 3 incorrect answers I called it out “Why are you lying to me? You don’t know” “Yes I was, I shouldn’t have done that, can you help me?”

Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

If hadn’t painted the design launch car satin silver would anyone be comparing to a cyber truck? One has beautifully crafted aluminium panels The other crudely cut stainless steel, poorly glued on, with edges that take digits off

People have attempted to import to EU and UK It’s not for sale here as not road legal You’re entitled to your opinion on the J01 You clearly have different tastes

Cannot agree - though do not understand the fixation with the cyber truck The J 01 is EU and UK legal The Cyber Truck is not For a myriad of reasons Regards dimensions Cyber Truck Height 1793-1943mm (dependent on suspension) Length 5683mm Jaguar 01 Height 1403mm Length 5242mm

Unconcerned with flash and bling The focus on driving experience and refined styling This says to me The owner has a vocation* *that may not be entirely legit

They (Jaguar) will probably gain attention from those who mourn what Bentley has become How many of us are there though - more importantly are enough sufficiently monied to constitute a market? 😂

Have no problem with “the meter of rear end”
010
nicola @gleanniucha.bsky.social · 22h
But when you say the front and rear a rolls thing - is that not too broad a statement? I feel you’re looking at design from a very different perspective to me Working within certain parameters RR have done their thing Jaguar have done theirs I see very different cars 🤷‍♀️
110
nicola @gleanniucha.bsky.social · 22h
It’s not elegant It’s rather brutal - but not brutalist - which I’ve seen bandied about British marques of the 50s had that, for all their curves, energy A see a different design direction to RR but all opinions valid
