Dr. Mark Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Mg just called me, and she sounded totally out of breath Seems that she has been watching TV, and the highlights of the L.A. auto show come on. It seems that Jaguar has just debuted their new F-type coupe. Now, MG is all about Jaguars, having owned several of them...she is totally a Jag Girl....but when the F type convertible came out last year, she was, like, "eh. It's Ok.' This, apparently, is a whole different animal..or, as my favorite redhead put it: "THAT is sex on four wheels!" With the F type R, you get 550hp and a 4 second 0-60 time. Sexy, indeed.

hasbin Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 You should have titled it "other than Hasbin" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maldev Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Mouse too. Something about redheads and Jags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabRat Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Never been wowed by Jags but got one today as a loaner when dropping off our RR for service and was a sweet little car. Not an F type, but certainly swayed me to look at them if we ever get another car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianTrue Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Dr. Mark keep in mind that when MG & Son (in his car seat which is buckled into your seat) take off to the soccer match you will be waving bye bye from the driveway. Lucky you now you just were awarded more Chief time so you can join them. Yea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Mark Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 You should have titled it "other than Hasbin" True. Which is one of the great mysteries of the Universe: "What is the meaning of Life?" "What is the explanation of the Unified Field Theory?" "Why does MG adore Hasbin's big hairy, ugly ass?"

2blackbelts Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I just got the opportunity last week to drive a brand new Jagar F red converible. An older gentleman at the Lake of the Ozarks is a retired :"banker" and he has a new one. He uses one of the local bike - car shops that I frequent do all of hs custom work. He has about 30 totally restored antiques and hot rods as well as many bikes. When Boar motorcycles went out of business, he bought all of the remaining bikes. I had never seen this car before and was asking him about it. He tossed me the keys and said "have fun". To say the least, I gave them back to him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think MG is right...it's nice, but it just doesn't have the same level of "Holy shit, that's hot." Odd. Usually it's the other way around. The ragtop is normally sexier than the coupe.

Brock Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 My wife loves BMW 335i, Z4 and old Vettes....so we get along on that front even though we have none of them at the moment but have in past. I am just glad this was not another picture of Dr.Mark in gagball when he went missing form here a few years back and was locked in the basement by MG before they were married.

Dr. Mark Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Does that come in a Mini Van version ???? I was wondering how long it would take for Bob to show up with the minvan comment. Remember, Corpulent Feline, this is MG, and she will never be caught dead in a minivan. She'd make ME drive it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't complain, since she likes go fast things too and she's training our daughter. Between her supercharged RR and C4S cab - she's all set for a while.
