Wish you & member's a Super new `Day of Life 2 Enjoy 4-Sure...

Mike (JG) 
, you sure know your rides...When I first seen it on the web I did not know what it was, but I liked `it...I'm just happy that car companies are still making rides like this for me to dream about & I do dream a lot about car's like this
WoW & 
Jaguar C-X75 going into production with help from Williams F1
<SMALL style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 11px; VERTICAL-ALIGN: baseline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px">Jaguar C-X75 – Click above for high-res image gallery (They are just freak'in beautiful 4-Sure) </SMALL>
This morning a gigantic cat jumped out of a secret little bag when Jaguar announced it has teamed with Williams F1 to build a production version of the C-X75 supercar. The 2010 Paris Motor Show-stopper in concept form was powered by two mid-mounted turbines, but the four-wheel-drive production model will swap those for a low displacement, highly boosted four-cylinder engine mated to "two powerful electric motors," one at each axle.
Williams' contribution will be in the areas of aerodynamics - the production version will maintain the concept's all-composite body, and the integration of the hybrid powertrain that will take from the lessons JLR is learning from its Jaguar Limo Green and Land Rover Range E. Horsepower numbers haven't been revealed, but the hybrid master blaster is targeting CO2 emissions of less than 99 grams per kilometer and all-electric running possible for 31 miles, along with a sub-three-second 0-to-60 time and a top speed beyond 200 miles per hour.
Only 250 will be built and they'll start at £700,000 ($1.149 million U.S. based on current exchange rates) "depending on local market and taxes." However, Jaguar hasn't said when they'll be built, offering nothing more than "within the timescales of a conventional model programme." That sounds like about four years to us, plenty of time to save enough to buy one of the door handles.

Good Morning EV1!
Did a return Trip to the trans shop...!
They ran there scanner on the Monte along with a Line Pressure test...
Heres what there findings were:
Absolutely Nothing!
Theres no reason for whats going on! SO..
.
They want to charge me... $1000.00 for a second rebuild. Because im 6 months over the warranty. (12mth/12000 miles) and give me the same warranty as last time..
I have deceided to drive it like it is..If and when it completely fails then I might consider getting it redone...As far as reverse is concerned..
It works...The catch is.. I have to tap the throttle to get it to engage.(I can live with that)..for now. Since it has ZERO issues in drive, Im gonna take it day by day...and see where it takes me.
Have a great day EV1!
Great snowman jokes space!
No SNOW here yet in lower southeast michigan....

Hi `David,
Wish you good luck with your transmission & I think I would do the same thing & just drive it until it goes...It may `go another 100K miles I don't know if I would drive it across country, but it's big dollars to repair...I would suggest keeping your eyes out for a good deal on another trans since you can still drive yours...Good Luck 4-Sure
===========================
Finally, I'm getting `off work on time 2day...My last confirmation order just came in & after I enter it, I'm `off until 7 PM 2night...I will try to check in b-4 I return to work..
Wish everyone a great afternoon & eve ~> Don't 4-get to enjoy....Keep our Blog & Forum active & keep our sponsor's and member's happy...
Peace/Out
