I really don't think he will - he's bought a modern Jaguar!

Generally, I don't understand the emotional attachment that some of you feel for your old cars. My approach is that once you've moved on, never look back. I can guarantee that things were never quite as rosy as people imagine afterwards.

A modern Jaguar is as generic as a Mercedes or a BMW, if that is your definition of generic. Nothing else comes close in terms of style, dynamics and quality.
