This is the new Jaguar Type 01, and its job is quite simple: save Jaguar. And it needs saving, as nothing under Ford or Tata ownership has worked. It’s a full reset then, and a massive gamble, and one that hasn’t been welcomed to date: we saw this car previewed as a big pink concept, the Type 00, two years ago, and together with a polarising advert, it rather broke the internet. But now it’s finished, and now it’s painted a more subdued colour, do you still hate it?
