What events led to the Jaguar day celebration?
Hello and welcome to the Car Podcast with Chris Harris and his friends. Only two of us are, I think, on the mainland today. Neil Clifford, I'm very jealous, is over at the Isle of Man, currently sitting in Milky's Cafe in what looks like a sort of homage to 1950s records.
I'm in the disco booth. I'm in the disco booth.
Let's go both. Manish is in Portugal, Chris Cooper is in Cornwall, and I am in Bristol, for a change.
What are some memorable experiences shared from the Jaguar day?
So, this is episode 89, soon be in the nervous 90s if you're a batsman. I don't have a factoid organised, but I can tell you this. don't get parking tickets. They really piss you off. So hopefully my mood will improve during the podcast recording. Let's start off with a general thank you for everyone that came to the Jag Day. We had a fabulous time. I hope you did as well. The weather really helped us. I have to say, what was the greatest success of the day? The biggest success of the day was the sunshine by some margin, I would have thought. But actually, I can't thank those who organised it enough. And I think It gives us ideas for the future. So please, if you have an idea, however silly for an event that you might want us to get involved with, please tell us.
Because you never know, the silliest ideas might be better than the obvious ones. I'll pass over to my other learning hosts about what they learnt or what they felt about the day and what their memories of it might be. Neil Clifford.
It was about people. Beautiful, beautiful Jaguar people. Thousands of you. Thank you so much. And cakes for me. I know Manish almost had a coronary with a sugar overload and that to sort of go and sit down. My wife almost did the same. But they tasted 63 cakes and there were seven winners. So that was wonderful.
How do the hosts feel about the future of car manufacturing?
I think, look, we saw some wonderful cars. Everyone was happy. It was a happy, happy day. We love that brand. I know most people in the United Kingdom love that brand, and we just celebrated it gorgeously. So thank you to everyone. It's too bad.
It was magical.
What are the upcoming car plans for the hosts?
It really was. I mean, we talked about it when we were on stage. I think when all of us and we had a number of people speaking on stage during the day and it was a really constant chatter and fun and talk about Jaguar all through the day. And we did a little podcast, Matt Becker podcast. the genius that he is joined us, Harry Metcalf did as well. And when we looked out on that sea of slightly sizzling, burning heads and faces in front of us, it must've been 1500 people in front of us. It was just a sea of faces and, and, and happiness really. When we, when we thought about doing it and Neil, you had the original idea, as I said, when we spoke on Saturday and, We thought, we just want to celebrate.
We want to celebrate Jaguar. And the past, the present, and the future. And I think it really did feel like that. I didn't really meet anybody who didn't think it was just the weather really helped. It was a fun day. It was magical. The vibe and the positiveness was extraordinary, particularly given the week that Ferrari's had this week.
What recent news in Formula 1 is discussed?
I really felt for the Jaguar people who came along to show their Type 00, sort of the far end of the big hangar and the big staging they had there. I think they got a lot of love, and I think it was good for them to tell their story. So thank you to all of the people who brought cars. Some of them who we won't... I'm tempted to name some, but I know some didn't want to be named who brought their cars. So you all know who you are. An extraordinary number of people who brought cars. The speakers who joined us on stage were all fantastic. all the people that attended, we had over 3,000 people there, which was just extraordinary. We had a really good time. I think I'm known for this. I can quite often walk around with a stern looking look on my face because I'm, I'm nervous because I want things to go really, really well.
And I felt quite nervous until right at the end of the day when we'd finished all the stuff on stage and everybody had done their bit. And it was, there were clearly lots of happy people there.
