This is a very nice car, even if it does appear to be called GOUTBACK. Longer review in this week's Smith and Sniff podcast.
Rushed Stellantis concepts, the dust settles on the new Jag and a review of the new Subaru E-Outback. This week Britain’s no.1 car podcast accidentally talks about cars. youtu.be/-zZ6IFHTjKo?si=--v0…
There now follow some promotional messages for upcoming times when I will be at the front of a room on a stage. Don't worry, I'm not doing a one-man version of Pirates of Penzance. That's for next year. Here we go...
Secondly, on Thursday 26 Nov I'll be at Great Northern Classics where TV's Paul Cowland and I will be chatting about Top Gear and all manner of stuff. At the last one I said several slanderous things about Gerry McGovern so who knows how this will go. greatnorthernclassics.co.uk/…
Finally, on Thursday 10 December we'll be doing our last Smith and Sniff live show of 2026 at Car Barn Beamish in County Durham. Wear a Christmas jumper, bring some Baileys, it'll be festive. eventbrite.co.uk/e/smith-and…

It's not all Jag news this week. The Renault E-Space concept is interesting. Right down to the reverse rake headlights, just like the original. But the first Espace had those for a reason...
Blakesee's underpants-based prediction wasn't entirely accurate from the off. In its first month on sale in France, the number of Espaces sold was... nine.
PS If you like this sort of minutiae, why not buy one of my Boring Car Trivia books. amazon.co.uk/dp/B09JZX63RY?b…
Meant to say earlier, the Jag reinvention doesn't start and end with the Type 01 or hinge entirely on that car's success. They've openly said it won't be biggest selling model because there are others on the way...
