Jaguar: the cat’s new story While other classy European cars like Range Rover, BMW and Mercedes Benz are global household names, the Jaguar has remained a species very exotic and vulnerable. Now, after messy living, the Jaguar makes a comeback in the new XJ 2010 By Kamau Ngunyi (   http://www.linkedin.com/pub/kamau-ngunyi/a/797/7a4) If cars could be equated to countries, the classy British car going by the name Jaguar would be Greece. Most people know Greece –for the old days schoolers, than for anything else in its recent history. Jaguar’s significance in motoring has been more felt in the past. While other classy European cars like Range Rover, BMW and Mercedes Benz were building into global household names, the Jag chose to remain a species very exotic and vulnerable. That cost it. Today, the Jag is remembered for a rich legacy between the 1930’s to 80’s. During this era, founder Sir William Lyons etched creative designs and built eye catching luxury saloons and sports cars.
