Well done to our government by letting Lexus provide the Olympic cars for 2012, another kick in the teeth for us at JLR, w4nkers
Jag XJ - Greenest luxury car available
Soon to be launched new XJ - even greener
Lexi - the japanese Mercedes. Back of the net.
That's really good 😕
Bet a whole lot of though went in to that or maybe it is the jollies to Japan that swung the deal?
was it a government decision?
really should have been the Jag though
Harro, here is your Rexus for the Rundon Orympics Meesa Lord Seb Coe

Hybrids, innit. We'll handily overlook the battery chargers that the bigg'uns will have. I mean, why have a lightweight, UK-made car with a clean diesel engine, when you can ship 5.0 V8s with nasty batteries from the other side of the world...
Travelled in Japan a lot Pook? 🙄
Indeed, yet more greenwashing.
Oooh, look at us, we're using hybrids, coz dey is well green innit, bro.
The new XJ is a peach of a car. Made in the UK, cleaner in the long run than any hybrid and has some element of the "legacy" that these games were meant to be about.
Should have been Jaguars for the VIPs and Disco 3s for the security goons.
I 'spose if they want the cars to be in keeping with the local area, a Lexus isn't a bad choice. I mean, slap some gold badges on the back, some chrome wheel arm trims and garish alloy wheels, a CD hanging from the rear-view mirror and of course the obligatory few ounces in the glovebox, and you've the perfect car for the area...
