Jaguar Tunes F-Type into Santa’s F-Sleigh, Builds It Out of Ice

This time of the year sees us constantly joking about which car Santa could use. However, Jaguar is now treating us with its kind of humor, and since these guys build cars for a living, they went ahead and designed one for Santa.

With Jaguar Land Rover’s platform-sharing strategy, this isn’t an all-new development. The starting point for the project was a Jaguar F-Type, which has been tuned into the F-Sleigh and built out of ice.

Using skates instead of wheels, Santa Claus’ Grand Tourer uses jet power to offer Jaguar’s supercharged thrills, while a Growler-embossed red nose is there to complete the picture.

As for practicality, the ice contraption comes with an open luggage compartment. So Santa doesn’t have any excuse for forgetting your gifts.

Sure, the ice play is fun, but there's a more serious purpose for this build

As you can imagine, this isn’t just an ice sculpture. Jaguar Land Rover showcased the F-Sleigh in London yesterday, with the aim of marking the launch of the company’s 2016 lifestyle collection.

Whether it’s a 1:18 scale model or a Land Rover bicycle you’re looking for, the carmaker is happy to cater to your needs. Just remember that you’ll have to pay for your gifts, even if you've been good all year.

The amazing F-SLEIGH may be a bit of Christmas fun, but it proves that Jaguar Land Rover is now creating much more than world-class cars. We have been working tirelessly to develop collections that tell stories and celebrate our great brands, and this 2016 collection is our most desirable ever - we've really pushed ahead for design, quality and originality and it's great to showcase it alongside the luxury goods being produced by our exclusive brand partners,” Lindsay Weaver, Jaguar Land Rover Director of Branded and Licensed Goods said.
