The AU IRS module was brilliant, let down by its sheer weight, the front end was just as good. The plans were to re-cast everything in alloy instead of steel; the B-series could have had underpinnings worthy of any large sedan in the world. It would have had driving dynamics the VE/VF would never match.

Weren’t the AU
IRS the same as the as the S Type Jaguar, except the Jags was alloy…
