Specifically the interior...they've put a kit on the outside, including the 2010 front end.

A little overboard on the inside.

No accounting for taste.

That is the ugliest upholstery I have seen since I worked on a customers airplane that had a red crushed velvet interior.
The tan and blue is a terrible combination.

I liked the idea, but the color choice was not to my tastes. Apparently they "attempted" to copy the diamond tucked interior on some DB9's???

Everything was going fine till I got to that pitiful interior. Lust is ephemerial. But have no doubt, somebody will just love it.

They should've kept it mono-tone with alancatara and it would've looked fine.

Oh, Boy....

They are going to have a hard time to find a buyer that shares the previous owner's taste in interior...

That poor car. The outside looked great but that interior. Gastly. Poor Poor Jaguar.

I've seen this car and love the clean drop. Wonder what springs they used. Also looks like they've either used spacers or the wheels are a perfect fit. But yes the interior has to go. It would be sold by now if it weren't for that.

Talking

"Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public"

While I agree with the above, I hope (as a matter of national pride), that this interior is the exception to the rule. Surely there is someone in ------------------------ (insert country of choice) we can ship this car to.

O God! I'm so ashamed. I just know that interior was customised in my country.

The shame of it is that apparently it was done by a Jag dealer. I always thought that the British were "proper" enough when it came to "taste" to actually refuse changes that would result in "undesired" combinations.

Having been around East San Jose many years ago, this interior reminds me to the type of interiors used on the, then popular, jacked low riders. Likely reflect the ethnicity of the owner?

I don't know what u guys are looking at. I don't see enough of the interior to make a judgement.
Without seeing more, I will admit that shade of blue wouldn't be my first choice for interior colors. Maybe some small specs of it here and there but not large smatterings of it.

I also like the body kit. It looks like the special order Speed Pack kit from Jaguar.

Saw them just now. I see what you guys mean. That is too much blue in the car. Maybe if it was just the seats with a little on the door...but that is too much.
Someone will buy this car though. The price is decent.
