I just found by a chance an article on the chinese owners of the MG brandname.
They come to market with two models, but also they have an EV coupe in the pipeline. Looks like a copy of the lines
and the basic sizes of the F-Type to me...
A 2+2 version.. with a long wheel base..
Chinese make EV copy.

Yeah, they put a Mazda grille on it to hide the F-Type lines.
...but at least it should be reliable and hasn't been fitted with Pirellis

So, more like an XKR copy, then? They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.Dan_Veluwe wrote: ↑Fri Sep 20, 2019 11:34 amLooks like a copy of the lines and the basic sizes of the F-Type to me...

Er, excellent though your English is, it should be "..better steal a good concept than make a bad one.."Dan_Veluwe wrote: ↑Fri Sep 20, 2019 3:45 pm We have a proverb which loosely translates as "..better steal a good concept then make a bad one.." ..
Your version implies that after stealing the good concept you then make a bad one.

It may have Jaguar lines, and a Mazda grille shape, but it also has Mercedes side sculpture and diamond effect grille ...
As above, its not an unpleasant overall design ... I wonder if they would make the F-type based shooting brake that Jaguar wont make ...

Yep. Sometimes I am sloppy with the spelling with hilarious results..
In reality it actually might happen when the Chinese get something wrong the same way : look at the doorhandles on chinese height...

I can see why JLR doesn't make it. There are various horrendous looking BMW type's with this kind of concept.

I’ve always thought forums are about cars not language. I work in 3 languages and believe me some of my French and Spanish errors are amusing
As for the copies. Not a bad effort here.
Take a look at the Evoque. They can do perfect copies of the want
