So a bit of fun logic that might give us some idea of UK 2016 production numbers.

I know my order is 19 of HA Fox Nottingham allocation of 54 units for this year. So, how many Jaguar dealers are there in the UK? I know dealers have different allocations depending on outlet size but let's assume the average is 40. In that case UK F PACE 2016 production could be 40 x no of Jag dealers?

Or I could be losing the plot :lol:

My dealers allocation is only 20 so 40 may be high

So I think it's roughly 70 dealers looking at the 'dealer locator' on Jaguars web site. That would make my daft estimate (factoring in salmonfisher comment) and changing to 30 as an average at 2,100 units for the UK this year??

 

[Salmonfisher]

Even on your original 40 each its still under 3,000 so it really will be an exclusive rare site this year

When i visited Solihull they told me they can make 1500 cars a day so thats 2 days production for uk cars on your numbers.

Is that spread across XE / RR etc?

 

[Shaunyt]

I think that's spread across the full jaguar land rover range, if you google car manufacturing JLR manufactured a total of just under 490,000 cars in 2015 which with a two week shut down they have in summer equates to 50 weeks producing about 9800 cars a week

But Jaguar produced less than 90,000 vehicles. Difficult to believe that the F-Pace will have an initial production volume of any more than 20k/year. The UK accounted for almost 30% of sales and JLR will be anxious to change that. So perhaps no more than 20% allocation to UK equivalent to full year 4000 units and probably fewer than 3000 in 2016. I think that the fuzzy logic was sound!

Yeah that was all 3 cars
