I would have to say that this has really touched me as i'm a huge Jaguar fan, to think that this car will not be produced in the UK is terrible. What do we have in the UK now? we don't produce anything eg Rolls Royce, Bentley all have been sold off. I had a freind who graduated in engineering a black girl and she worked for Jaguar in coventry designing the interiors I hope she finds work eleswhere.

Anyway here's my favourite car of all time the Jaguar XJ220

Jaguar are also pulling out of Formula One at the end of the season.

Jaguar is still being made over here, they have 3 plants and they are closing 1. It will be interesting to see how it affects my company, as we have a contract that deals with breakdown assistance for jaguar customers.

It will effect a lot of companies, particularly here in the midlands.

My sympathies lie with those who will eventually end up jobless or those losing a big chunk of their income due to re-location
