What kind of car is this? (Pic)?




Cody S


seen this car in Holland Amsterdam, can not remember the name of it. I think he said it was a german car


Answer
Well from the photo I don't recognise it as a production model, but a clue could be the grille, possibly from the Jaguar sedan released some years ago as a remodelled early 3.8 litre which was designated an S type. Remember this was when car manufacturers like Volkswagen, with the Beetle, Fiat, with the 500 Bambino, Jaguar with the 3.8, and then BMW with the Mini, based on England's Morris Mini-Minor from the British Motor Corporation (which became defunct a lot of years ago), went all retro with some popular makes.--Who ever designed and built the one in your photo did a bloody fine job.--By the way the Jaguar X-type that was released a fair while ago is really just a Ford Mondeo.--Yes, Ford I believe were having sales problems with it, so they simply badge engineered it as a Jaguar with a redesigned body and interior on the Mondeo drivetrain, and they then sold like hotcakes.--Now, the last I heard, Jaguar is owned by the Tata Group in India...

So, there you have it folks, it's a Weisman GT MF4.---See you learn something every day.---Thanks for the info guys.....................

Jaguar Question?

I'm looking at buying an 88 Jaguar XJS. The only thing wrong with it is that it has been sitting for quite awhile and the speedometer and fuel sensors need replaced. Not knowing anything about cars, would this cost a ton to fix since it's a Jag?


Answer
go to jag-lovers.org for loads of info on Jags.....good luck
