What makes you think Tata will be able to undo the damage?

At least they're not an american company, how much worse could they do?

Would you buy one?

One day maybe. The only way I would buy a Jag is a lease on an XJ8. Warranty!

My wife likes those too, but I don't see it.

You have to like British cars, they are not an S550 nore built as perfectly as an LS460.

Maybe a e-type (series I), a XK140, or a lotus 7; but british sedans have never appealed to me.

Tin can with wheels

if you passed ocean parkway and foster ave in brooklyn last weekend you could have collected the hoodstar that flew off my 85 300d as i collided into someone who stopped short at a green light in the rain as a firetruck cut him off. BASTARDS! *sob*

ya know... I would have made a point to tell the officer to stop traffic to let me go out there and find it before someone ran it over... just my feeling on how much i miss having a star

so my car looks like crap.
but atleast then they knew what i was driving

now people talk about my volvo or bmw

I like my car w/o the star. I have one, but as soon as I put it on, some jerk will try to remove it and I'd rather not have to deal with that.

Fastlane has them for $9:

I'll trade you one for a hood star.
