England – Jose Mourinho makes a surprise visit to Jaguar Land Rover’s factory in Solihull, England, to watch employees build his new car - the 100 000th F-Pace SUV.

Mourinho wore bespoke Jaguar overalls and made his way directly to the factory floor to oversee the production of his car and helped the team as it moved along the production line.

The F-Pace is the fastest selling Jaguar vehicle yet and is currently the fastest Jaguar vehicle to reach the 100K sales mark.

A very special Jag

Mourinho said: "It was an amazing experience to visit Jaguar’s factory and see all the cars, technology and hard work that goes into developing such a beautiful car. Jaguar is a brand that I have been involved with for many years.

"Back in 2014, I was the first UK customer to receive the F-Type Coupe and now to become the 100 000th Jaguar F-Pace customer is something that is very special."

Ian Callum, director of design at Jaguar said: "It’s great to have one of the most successful football managers drive the F-Pace, our SUV that has been voted as the best and most beautiful car in the world by the 2017 World Car of the Year jury.

"Just like Jose Mourinho, the F-Pace is all about individual style and top performance.”
