We also follow up on the wonderful story of a once-abandoned Mercedes-AMG that's about to get a new lease on life.

EP19: The end of Jaguar as we know it, and what happens next

Jaguar is one of the most storied brands in automotive history. Under its belt are seven victories at Le Mans and some of the world's most beautiful cars. Even Enzo Ferrari described the E-Type as "the most beautiful car ever made". Now the company is undergoing a complete redux, which is the main subject of this week's episode. 
We also look into the ongoing debate around tariffs on Chinese cars being imported to Europe and how it will play out for some brands, including well-know European names.
