50 years of Jaguar forage harvesters
Anyone with a little grey hair, or in my case, very little hair, will remember the early 1970s, when they likely saw their first self-propelled forage harvester.
JAGUAR DISPLAYED an XKR coupe with a difference in New York recently.
The XKR coupe with a unique paint scheme came courtesy of renowned local graffiti artist Kaves at the invitation of Jaguar.
Ian Callum, Jaguar’s director of design, who had earlier visited Kave’s studio to add his own finishing touch to the XKR said: “I love it. It’s a fascinating contrast of beauty and drama. There’s a real edginess to it that we can enjoy at Jaguar.”
In addition to painting the XKR, Kaves – a graffiti artist since the age of ten – used his talents to produce a series of works for Jaguar celebrating its sporting bloodline of C-, D- and E-Type, each being represented on a canvas displayed at the function.
During the evening, Kaves then finished a fourth canvas based on the F-Type name to complete the series.
Asked about his work with Jaguar, Kaves said: “I was enlisted to come up with something exciting and spontaneous. I went back to my roots and picked up the spray cans.
“Seeing the car itself and its great lines, it inspired me.”
