It proves that LSD has reached corporate boardrooms.

“Expressed his desire to retire” vs. Fired on the spot and sued for criminal misconduct and completely ruined for life, proves that corporate CEOs including those in India are the absolute least qualified folks to lead any business. The fact he wasn’t immediately terminated proves that Jaguar will never survive because those in charge and the shareholders are completely incompetent and don’t have the discernment to hire the right people.

Why couldn’t they have just left jaguar alone? It was a fabulous (albeit frequently broken down) brand for decades. My husband and I had a ‘98 Van de Plas that was like riding on air. If they had allowed after market parts, it would have been affordable to keep. But when it ran, it was glorious!

At least Dylan Mulvaney actually showed what it was he was trying to sell. The grim Jag-yoo-arr freaks in the ad never bothered to mention it.

Jaguar has been in a spiral for years. Current management just hastened its descent into oblivion.

Guy has been there 35 years. He's part of the problem.

During his tenure, they Jaguar was sold from British Leyland to Ford and again to Tata Motors. Now going all in on EV. They company just seems adrift and will probably never recover from the peak 70's legacy.

It would be inspiring if Jag broke away from Tata and starting making legendary vehicles again. Would take significant investment and vision - not sure it could be done. Prob. easier to create a newco.

If Tata cars are ever available here, I’ll get one, and over the Tata logo I’ll put a sticker that says “Bodacious.”

There are few automotive brands that carry a longer tradition of excellence and performance. Yet, Jaguar has managed to make a series of bad moves the last few decades, and have pretty much crushed their entire brand.

They went from this:

While not Jaguar, I was captivated by the Land Rover magazine ads in the 1960s. Crossing a chasm in the African jungle, surviving being gored by a herd of rhinos, etc. First big purchase I made after college was a Series 3 Rover. Took it everywhere in northern Maine and Quebac. Now you can’t tell a Rover from a Kia.

So, what are the odds that his replacement will be a black lesbian that’s missing a leg?

You mean the men who buy luxury cars like that does not get one to attract the androgynous queers featured in that stupid ad. They want ladies like that American Eagle model. How many trannies did that fool think want a Jag? Good riddance to Jaguar. Hire Dylan Mulvaney and paint the next model to look like a Bud Light can.
