The X-Type was meant to put Jaguar firmly back in the black. It didn't, but here's one for pennies - in black SOTW
Die-cast models. Did you have any? Shed did. He had loads of 1:45 scale Dinky and Corgi cars, all carefully hurled into a big cardboard box at the end of the playing day to generate that authentic used look. Wedged into one of the four kitchen cupboards his mum had the use of in their tiny council house, Shed thought his precious collection was safe, but a mere 38 years after he’d moved out she put the whole lot in the bin without telling him. How selfish.
He never had a Dinky or Corgi Jaguar X-Type though. The main reason for that was that neither firm existed when Jaguar launched the X-Type in 2001. Corgi had gone into liquidation in 1989, ten years after Dinky had closed its doors. Interestingly, or possibly boringly, pre-war die-cast model cars fell apart just like real-life Jags would become famous for doing. Instead of rust however the models got something called zinc pest which over time would cause them to crumble, fracture and shatter.
The retest was clean. This can be a Jaguar thing. Owners of more workaday cars will routinely only get the ‘do not drive’ and ‘repair immediately’ defects sorted out, leaving the advisories for another day, or ideally another owner, but Jaguars will often as not be 100 percent mended after an MOT test. It’s out of respect for the marque. Custodians want to do the right thing by them.
