I have to be honest and say that while I love the Orange Arrows, I marginally prefer 2000's A21.

The Jaguar R1 is just... superb. Every Jaguar subsequant to this one added a bit more red here, a splash of white there, whilst the original one has a lovely, cutting shape and the best blend of all the green liveries.

If only it did go as quick as it looked.

I prefered the A21 over the A22 because it had better sponsors which matched the colour scheme better. Adding the Red Bull and Asiatec logo's runined it. Before it was mostly Chello.

Similarly the Jaguar R3 was in my opinion the best liveried of all the years models.
 
Must admit, I never really paid much attention to the Jags before but having looked through the nomination thread and seen people nominate the R1 I had to agree it to be one of the most stunning F1 cars of the decade.
 
Very difficult, but the Jaguar looks just a little less messy. Also, I'm pretty sure both those cars had V10s.
 
Of those two probably the Arrows.. but both are a long way from the highly sculpted fierceness of cars like the F1.08 which are my favourite to be honest.
 
In an unheard of but not all that shocking move, I've gone against one of my nominations.

The first few Jag offerings are almost level pegging for me and while I'm more fond of the 2001/2 entries, the R1 did wear the finest livery of the 21st century in its purest form.

Nothing against the Orange Arrows. It's just happens to be up against one of the very best.

Had to go with the Jag, but I don't really like either. The Jag would look so much better without the white and that awful HSBC sponsor. The Arrows just looks too bin-man jackety. Needs another colour to break it up (imo). Both shapes of the car are inoffensive though.
 
The Arrows is the definition of a fantastic livery on a terrible car, especially on the A22. The front wing being higher off the ground than the sidepods just kills it for me. The grooved tires also didn't help, because they were the only thing you could see. That was what we had to deal with for most of the decade, and I quickly lost interest (that and the Schumacher-Todt show...)

So yeah, the Jag. The last of the good looking cars, IMO.
