It will be exciting seeing old vintage cars being brought back to life by converting them to electric. There is a business here and it is already happening in Europe.

Jaguar plans to offer reversible conversions of E-types

Isn't every car manufacturer, and every would be "entrepreneur" out there building their own electric car?

Yes. Jaguar and Mercedes are both bringing out electric cars, for instance. The Jaguar I-PACE looks to be a better car than the equivalent Tesla.

Jaguar are selling conversions if you've got the money

Jaguar have done that with an E-Type https://media.jaguar.com/news/...

Sorry, test first design apparently isn't part of the Jaguar model. They do, however offer "Safety and Security" through a comprehensive range of sophisticated safety systems", which apparently don't include cruise control. It seems unconscionable to think that there would not be a safety mechanism that could override the rest - brakes has always been the default for this type of issue.

Then this Jaguar should make him want to kill himself: http://www.jaguar.com/us/en/about_jaguar/news_pr/c-x75_concept_car_of_year?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=CPC&utm_term=jaguar_cx75&utm_campaign=2011_C-X75

If this is true, then Jaguar has standing to sue as well.

"But your honor, these shysters have a prior history of this conduct!"

I wouldn't say TVR or Aston Martin are "crap" nor are Bentley or Royal Royce, or for that matter Jaguar, or MG/Rover, or Landrover. :)

There's a car *and* an animal called "Jaguar"? And all this time I thought it was just my Operating System...

Actually there are quite a few. Off the top of my head, try going here and here. These sites deliberately keep you out if you're using anything other than IE. I assume you've heard of these cars?

The Jaguar is not really British anymore. It is now owned and operated by the Fix Or Repair Daily Company
