So nice to see gems like these being taken care in India. Some of them look like they are out of a time capsule!!

The Jag oozes so much class and is such a timeless design, that it gets most petrol-heads salivating.
I do not know why, but it evokes deeper emotions, than, say a Maybach or a Lamborghini. Call me a sucker for old designs, but they have a greater recall value. Such icons.

You should hear that V12. It's so silky smooth! The E-Type will be remembered forever. The Maybach, I dare say, is already forgotten.

There are good reasons Jaguar is my favourite brand.
