Old e46 3 series 

78B6A132-41B8-45A0-9411-30ABB1AC01DA.jpeg

Owned before. Ride too hard for me with its factory sports suspension. But ageless elegant design.

Ahhh, tbh I do mix them up once in awhile, I typically differentiate them by the rear engine cover/ or the lack of rear windows on the Exige🤣

I went to check the number plate, the one here is in Exige indeed.

I guess the modern Tata-owned Jaguars and SAIC-owned MGs have really saved both brands...from themselves...

Not really, Range Rovers now are a disaster. Now there are no spares available for any repairs as well.

Do they just decide to shut down their parts manufacture units?

Yes, you can check all over YouTube. Insurance rates have gone through the roof in UK and EU as RR's were a) made easier to steal by a software glitch and b) harder to repair because parts are not available. A lot of insurance companies no longer offer cover, like they also decline EV, so with the assistance of one wealthy entrepreneurial type, JLR themselves now offer owners coverage otherwise they could not get. This was because of "a" being an excuse for "b" whereby people were stealing them to break for parts, pretty much the same as they do/did in Malaysia with Protons.

My friend there had a nice black RR that recently failed. As parts were not available, and expected that way for a while, traded-in for a BMW. Some people are waiting 6-9months for repairs.

Don't even get started on the E and I-Pace that catch fire, or that it was a RR that caused the Luton Airport carpark fire.

JLR itself is at risk.

The road presence is definitely there. 

Is the wheel cap stock and original? Or painted black.
