Jaguar | Copy Nothing… existential crisis??
Well as almost every self respecting #petrolhead I love Jaguar. And this video is a reaction to #jaguar new image campaign. If your a #vintagecar enthusiasts or even modern #car enthusiasts let me know what you think of jaguars new artistic direction.
If this video makes sense look up the Jaguar copy nothing marketing video.
Special thanks to Klara that took her time to be a part of the video.

    G'day Mitka. One of the highlights of my life was driving a mint mid 70's XJ back in the mid 90's. Gorgeous car. The new offering? Hideous outside with an interior reminiscent of an airplane toilet. Yours is a lovely old girl. If I didn't already own a couple of 1962 Valiants with one being a fully custom V8 convertible I might be a bit jealous. My profile picture is my V8. Joel.

    Brilliant. Thank you. Whoever came up with the New Woke Ad (SMT + CEO & Advert Dept) all deserves the sack. It is the normal employees, who will lose their jobs. Dealerships have invested heavily in the past product, and will now go out of business! More normal jobs lost. How much did the Telly Tubbies in the ad get paid. I do not think they will work again either!

    I love this video! My first car was a Triumph TR6, but that was only because at 15 and only having jobs mowing lawns and shoveling snow I couldn't afford an E-type V12. By the time I could afford one I was more into practical vehicles that suited my businesses. Like some watch rebrands (Blancpain, Breguet), Jaguar has changed hands so many times now that it has permanently broken its connection to its heritage. Unsurprisingly its marketing now looks like Swatch marketing. Expect colorful plastics along with those electric motors and a life expectancy of three to five years before the new ones, if they ever make it to market, hit the landfills.

    Beautiful watch and one the first watch I remember thinking how good it looked , as an 9:year old .im fortunate to now own a Seawolf from the late 60s I think , 70-72 movement the same I be,ieve as the one worked on . I have a problem though , that it doesn’t seem to work automatically at all , or the hacking function . Time is accurate when wound manually and it runs well but just not in auto or hacking ? I’m sure I need a service or advice amd would welcome help from someone more experienced ? If you are offer such a service to a needy zodiac wearer ?

    Exactly same year and colour as my stepdad's except his had a black vinyl roof. Parked outside the house car thieves broke in but for some reason couldn't steal it (think it was out of petrol) so they smashed every dial and guage including the steering wheel badge. Wasn't worth repairing (this was 1988) so he scrapped it and bought a used double six instead.

    I've had Series 2 and Series 3 Jags. 4.2 and XJ12 versions of the Series 3. They're all wonderful. Anyhow, on mornings like the one you have illustrated, I just pour warm to hot water onto all the screens and the side windows. Clears the frost instantly. And no, it diesn't crack the windscreen. Boiling water might, but not hot water from the tap - which, by the time you've walked from the kitchen to the car on a morning like that, has cooled a bit anyway in yur plastic container.

    Ian Chapman! I guess you meant Colin. Chapman was not a fan of the Bristol engine, which started life as a pre war BMW unit. It was heavier than the Climax 2.0L FPF, which affected the handling. Power output was similar, depending on the level of tune. Haute Savoie 74 registration.

    Never been one to follow the herd in virtually anything, although I have an extreme fondness for Omega watches. My appreciation for Eterna came along inevitably reading about Thor Heyerdahl crossing the Pacific Ocean in a reed raft, taking along a bunch of Eterna watches which became known as the Kontiki. The romance of that, the fact that Eterna squeeze under the radar, considering their quality, plus that distinctive 5 ball bearing falling weight and logo, just drew me in. So it's really nice to see a lovely restoration. And good gentle narration too.
