Jaguar E-Type? Since when does an E-Type look like a cross between a Lotus Europa and a Lotus Elan? Change it to Elan or Europa, otherwise this is going to look stupid.

It looks a bit like a Jaguar from the rear.

But one thing I think it most definitely is not, is a Lotus Elan. A bit like a Europa to the front but not an Elan.

The shape of the sides makes me think to a Jensen-Healey: www.motorsnaps.com/d/14527-4/1975+Jensen+Healey+Convertible.jpg

BUT: I still see a lot of Jaguarish elements. XJ-S, E-Type and XJ-C. Maybe it is just a pastiche of two door Jags?

Most of these cars (Spitfire, Jensen-Healey, Lotus etc) with the exception of the Jaguars and especially the Elan are tiny. Short and low. This is a big car if you compare it to the XJ sedan.

Exactly :/

I see nothing from Jaguar here. Proof

No, 75% Spitfire (back and sides), 25% Europa (just the front)

But, it doesn't look like it from the front, we could call it a Europa or we could call it a Spitfire but which one looks closer? Its 50/50 i think Europa

It's a Spitfire with an Europa's front

We need a rear picture because the rear to me is E-type and the front is Europa

Looking at the back, it's identical

Come on, that's a Trumph, it doesn't resemble at all to an E-Type Jaguar
