Yes…Jag-Lovers must keep the XJ40 category…The XJ40 was considered a new-generation saloon and is completely different from the Series I, II and III XJ6 models. Further, from a historic standpoint, the XJ40 is the last design Sir William Lyons had input to and the 1988-1989 model were the last Jaguars built prior to the company being sold to Ford Motor Company. The only thing newer Jaguar saloons share with the XJ40 is the basic body shape…and even that evolved into the more recent cars which look nothing like the XJ40, X300, X308, etc. Just my dime’s worth.
