Top Gear: Swedish Designer reimagines the E-Type Jag
Remodelling the E-Type Jag is like remodelling Joanna Lumley.

Yet somehow, Swedish designer Bo Zolland has risked blasphemy, a spell in the Tower and probably the Ghost of Enzo Ferrari to create the ‘Growler': how an E-Type Jaaaaag might look today. And it looks spiffing.

It's apparently based on an XKR complete with a 5.0-litre V8 tuned to produce around 600bhp. Then there's that bodystyle...mmmm.

Sure, it could do with a better name, but you have to admit, it's quite a design, no?

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar...this is not one of those cases. :millertime:

I really like it but the quad headlights seem to be just there for the sake of being different from the original. Two would look a lot more sporty.

My hope has been emancipated, and I'm reconstructing my anguish.

I don't like the wheels...sure, they're a throwback to the original, but I think too much so. Something more modern-retro would look better. The rest of the car looks pretty nice.

I think it's gorgeous. Wire wheels, Quad headlights and all.

That isn't half bad - normally I don't like these re-imagining render but its a real beauty. Nice.
