I like the brand identity thing...
Completely agree with you, Wolfy. I am not so fond of this "brand identity" direction that Jag is following, much akin to BMW. I sometimes find it hard to distinguish between a 5 and 7 series, and sometimes between the XF and XJ, unless you see the entire length of the car or the rear. Geez!
I have no problems about Jag being consistent, much like Benz. Otherwise you end up with crap that looks like Lexus, all over the place. You should be able to look at a Jag--any Jag, and say "that's a Jag and it's gorgeous", period, no matter which Jag. Of course, we all know XJ is the big cat in the den...grrrrrrr

the article says, "additional model lines, rather than new body styles of existing cars, are being investigated."
You mean like some new letter followed by the "X" or "F"? Perhap an even smaller CUV and roadster, or a minivan/truck?!? How about bringing back the XK.
The low-volume XJ looks dated already thanks to the 'brand ID' dilution by its look-alike stablemates. Too bad, just as I was starting to warm up to its looks vis-a-vis the Classic XJ8.
