Fast cars, I agree. Jaguar sales should increase as the XF is definitely a strong player. With additional models expected to roll out over the coming years, doubling their output shouldn’t be all that difficult to do.

Jaguar sold less than 54,000 units in all of 2007, down from about 70,000 units just one year prior but, with the financial backing of Tata and the hands-of-approach to management Indian execs have in store, sales could potentially double within the next couple of years.

Jag, I fully understand. If Tata ends up moving production to India — as they promised not to do — all bets are off.

It won’t be easy to make money for Jaguar as the company lost billions for Ford. What may help is to manufacture some of the components in India, but they must be of a superior quality otherwise the brand will suffer.

Land Rover is in better shape, but Tata must treat this brand carefully too.

Jaguar loyalists need to be reassured — the next several months should be quite interesting.

I am not sure how i feel about ford selling jaguar to Tata. If the quality stays the same and price for parts goes down great. If the look and quality of the cars goes down i will be disappointed.

Only time will tell if the jaguar will still be a car
people admire.
