New Jaguar Brand Promo video – David Gandy: Escapism

New Jaguar Brand Promo video: David Gandy: Escapism Somebody at Jaguar PR has a fondness for British model David Gandy, and they’ve turned his profile in to an ongoing promo for all things Jaguar in recent months. We had the good Mr Gandy (who hails from the home of Cars UK – Billericay) driving an XK120 earlier this year with Yasmin le Bon in the Mille Miglia, and this time Jaguar are aiming at the ladies with a brand promo video featuring David driving classic Jags but focusing in on the heritage and appeal of the new F-Type in the process. Jaguar introduced the film at the Goodwood Revival earlier this month, but now we get the full release of the film - David Gandy: Escapism – with David explaining his passion for cars – and in particular his passion for Jaguar cars – with the film including not just the new F-Type, but the inspiration for the F-Type – the Jaguar E-Type – and perhaps the most appealing, and rare, Jaguar of all – the Jaguar XK-SS.

Ford recalls minivans, SUV

Ford is recalling nearly half a million vehicles to fix defects that can cause fires or loss of power. About 205,800 copies of the Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivan from the 2004 and 2005 model years are being recalled, because torque-converter output shafts in the transaxle might fail and cause power loss. Ford is also recalling 244,530 Escape SUVs from the 2001 and 2002 model years, which might have brake-fluid leaks that can cause corrosion and fire.

UK 2010 car sales analysis: winners and losers

The new car sales figures for 2010 were announced today, revealing the winners and losers in the UK's new car showrooms. Perhaps surprisingly, with the ending of the scrappage scheme in March 2010, new car registrations in Britain ended up 1.8% on 2009. That was a total of 2,030,846 cars sold as new.
