As the first joint MD of Jaguar and Land Rover in the UK, Jeremy Hicks is making a splash… in more ways than one
BY THE time you read this, Jeremy Hicks and a team of ten intrepid colleagues from Jaguar Land Rover will have (hopefully) conquered a swimming challenge across the English Channel.
The company’s UK MD and his squad are raising money for BEN, the automotive industry benevolent charity, and are aiming to bank at least £160,000 for the cause.But then, swimming with the tide is second nature to Hicks, with both brands seeing increased sales and share in a car market that has seen a sharp downturn in recent months.

Saving Jaguar
On the brink of the abyss in the early Eighties, Jaguar saw its fortunes turned around by a new chairman, John Egan. We meet up with him at the Jaguar Heritage Trust at Gaydon to talk about his strategies for the companyâs recovery
Rolling road
A SNOWY February morning is not the ideal time to be taking out a pristine Jaguar E-type, and an early Series 1, flat-floor model at that. But my mate Bryan Smart has booked his in for a three hour session on a rolling road, and doesn’t want to miss the appointment. He’s not looking for more power – this car is standard, but it doesn’t idle as smoothly as it should. He’s not bad with spanners himself, but neither he nor a couple of specialists have been able to solve the issue.

Family Ties
Despite the thirty years that separate the E-type 2+2 Series 1 from the XK8 they have many similarities – such as being fun and the added practicality of four seats to attract the family man. We test 4.2-litre versions of both cars back-to-back.
