I know it's a jag, and I know it's the queen's...but it's ugly.

If'n I was the queen, I'd make them get me a 'ghini!

Maybe bigger faster larger isn't the British way besides she's probably showing her subjects she can be thrifty.

I really like the Jaguars. I would buy it even if it is uglier than my four old rusted doors.

I don't think it's ugly. I love Jaguars. Understated, sleek lines: a design classic.

That to me looks like the car of someone who really doesn't need to impress anybody. This isn't the car she attends state events in, this is for bobbing about between her palaces and around her estates :P It was of course made specifically for her Maj.

I agree, it's a 10 year old car but it's not outdated... besides, flaunting excess is for the nouveau riche.

Plus we don't want to be an obvious target, now do we.
