It is usually impossible for the members of the public to ever get an in-depth look at a project car, let alone being given a detailed tour by one of the people involved in making it. But thanks to Harry Metcalfe, a senior JLR consultant and former motoring journalist, that has become a possibility about the Jaguar Project 7 F-Type.
Jaguar Project 7 will of course soon go on sale in limited numbers (250 units), but what Harry has managed to bring out of the lab for a few days is the first prototype. These are always a little bit more special.
So without any further ado let’s watch and learn as Mr. Metcalfe schools us on how to make a boutique version of a production car. Fascinating stuff:
