    After many months of restoration and modification, Project Jaaaag comes to a crescendo! Richard and Mike have invited a bunch of Jaguar enthusiasts down to The Smallest Cog to judge the two DriveTribe Jags - Richard's XJR and Mike's manual XKR. Who will take the crown of the coolest Jag on the channel?!

      The XKR was so exotic looking back in its day, a really cool car. And yours is infinitely better with that manual (although I'm not sold on the grille). But the XJR has always been a tad more lustworthy for me. That classy, slab sided body is timeless.
      I'd take the XJR.
      Just my $0.02

      I'm glad to see the vote was closely split; both cars have their merits, and both can proudly be claimed as proper Jaguars.
      I think that, breaking it up over the episodes (as was done) was a great move.

      Not a Jag story, but my dad had an Aston Martin DB2 that he had inherited from his father. I will never forget him taking me out for a drive in it as a kid. The stupendous noise of the engine, the smell of petrol and just the overall sense of speed and excitement (and my mum being furious because it didn’t have proper seatbelts 😅). It’s one of my favourite childhood memories

      Drivetribe is certainly parkinson's-positive judging by their camera work. I can't believe they have that collection of beautiful, varied Jags in front of them from all around the country and then they make those flash-edits so no-one can actually see the cars at all!

    1. I have to say I prefer the XJR....it's an XJ and one of the best looking Jaaags ever, the XKR is greatvand I love what you've done with it...buuut....Hammond's is an XJ...so you kinda brought a knife to a gun fight for me I'm afraid.
    2. I love the continuity of them in close succession, so more like that please! Loved the road trip thing btw.
    3. You now have to go up against AutoAlex's XJ Supe...looking forward to that. I imagine you will get better MPG than him if he (Taylor 😆) hasn't fixed that awful MPG issue.

    I bumped into Richard last Friday in his local Morrisons, where I work as a driver, I was busting for a wiz between my routes and nearly took him out as I marched out of the warehouse wearing my high viz (sorry, my bad 😬)
    I really wanted to say hello, but I also didn't want to disturb him nor draw attention to him while he was just doing his shopping in relative peace. Basically, I have no clue what the etiquette is in such a situation, so I left him alone.
    Anyway, hello Richard and hello Drivetribe crew, I hope you're all well. I'm not sure what local car shows are on this year, but perhaps I'll see you all and perhaps even your Jaguars at one. 🙂
    We missed you at Newent Cricket Club last year, we did see Oliver, although at the time, we had no idea that it was actually Oliver. 😅

    A car project, by its very nature, takes time.

You did these right - taking us along on a multi-episode journey showing what it takes to make these cars right. Oh, and by the way - for me it would be the XK-R every time. Gorgeous!

    Having just driven my sons Mustang (he’s away working, and asked me to look after it) I’m afraid I’m going for the comfort of the XJ - until my back recovers from the lowered sports suspension and U.K. potholed roads.

    Never driven a Jag, never been inside a Jag, never gonna own a Jag and still I loved this format and serie. ❤
    Instead I will keep putting money into my old Saab 9-5 and bee happy when it's runs😊

    Well done Mike, loved this series. I personally hate having to wait weeks for an upload, and then another week for the next. Binge watching when i have time is far more enjoyable.
