I think the white one looks like ***. The blue one on the other hand is a different story

I'm astonished that a Jaguar with racing pretensions is not available in British Racing Green. It's like Ferraris not being sold in Red, or Porsches in silver. So much for tradition, I suppose.

At first, I was wondering the same thing...and I'm guessing, Lil (but don't know this for a fact) that it may (?) be political. Jaguar is (now) owned by Tata Motors, an India-based company. People and corporations in India, with their many years of colononialism, are probably not eager to promote anything British.
