I wouldn't say the X-type is 'truly' badge-engineered. The body, which forms a substantial part of the overall car and a larger proportion of overall design, is different to the Ford.

Thanks Will O. for your very well thought out & written commentary. Ford did a nice job with their X-Type Jaguar a few years ago, a truly badge engineering job of an ordinary Ford, but in reality are a car's properties and behaviors not really what matters ? Is it unbelievable that Chevrolet could make a great car with as much "personality" as an ALFA ? Oh i forgot, there haven't been any 'real' Chevrolets since the company was bought out by GM in 1918 ! jack in Bloomington IN -- to be removed from alfa, see http://www.digest.net/bin/digest-subs.cgi or email "unsubscribe alfa" to [email protected] -- to be removed from alfa, see http://www.digest.net/bin/digest-subs.cgi or email "unsubscribe alfa" to [email protected]
