Jaguar Type 00 chased out of Pebble Beach by mob wearing red trousers

The Jaguar Type 00 concept has abandoned Monterey Car Week after being chased from its stand by a mob of patrons wearing flashy red trousers and expensive watches.

Witnesses describe how the famously genteel Pebble Beach crowd quickly became agitated when the cover was pulled off the car, with tensions rising further as it began to slowly spin on its electronic turntable.

But the situation is thought to have boiled over when its butterfly doors opened upwards instead of outwards, with one onlooker eye-rolling so hard they required medical attention.

That sparked a furious backlash, with dozens of attendees rushing the vehicle brandishing champagne flutes and carbon-fibre walking canes.

One eye-witness, who asked not to be named as Jonathan Raye, 53, from Long Beach, CA, said: “Ugly, farcical, utterly without justification… oh, you weren’t asking about the car?

“Whatever. I’ve never been so offended by a three-dimensional shape and a colour. It’s clearly the work of the Illuminati. You can tell because it’s electric.”

Upon being told the production vehicle would likely cost six figures and might skyrocket in value, the witness replied: “Oh. In that case I’ll order three.”

Having been smuggled out of Pebble Beach, the Type 00 has now gone into hiding. The FBI has refused to comment but speculation suggests it will be given a new identity consisting of a Chrysler Hemi V8 and a racing stripe.
