Yours for £950,000 (plus local taxes) the pair (and they are only available to be bought as matched pairs):

Yeah but they aren't original are they, and they remain copies. IMO not worth the money despite the hype.

Ooh looks like repro spinners :banghead: would be interesting to find out their chassis numbers and look up on xke data as these are restored cars not new...Steve

Definitely not worth the money or even half the money (unless they have taken actual OBL cars as the base cars). If they are not OBL cars then they are purporting to be something they are not which puts Jaguar's position on replicas under the microscope.

"inspired by..." "informed by..."

Spare me any more of these weasel words for "copies"

JLR are just going steadily down the tube

Surely they'd have to be restorations, otherwise, wouldn't they need to comply with modern emissions and safety stds?

I'd pay just to see them wear the hat and if anyone can keep a straight face, I'd pay double.

At least they are both (accurately) OTS cars.
