Granted, the hardtop would be much stiffer, but I think a worse fault is that it looks almost generic. I’m not saying it’s not very pretty (although I am saying it has nothing on the “old” XK (not the permanently frowning XKR), not so say anything of the E-Type, which it is replacing, or the AML DB9), because it is, but a Jag should be more of a head turner; when you drive past in one, even if you bolt past in a blur, people should at least think to themselves “That was a Jag!”, not “Oh, neat car, what was that, an Audi?”.
