Was Jaguar scrapped? I'm sure I read somewhere that it had been. I have a model and a photo I bought in MAN to remind me of that one.

Most were bought for spare parts by Auto Direct Aviation in the Americas, a few were sold on as operational planes. Many were stripped down to hulks at Prestwick and some were road transported to Southend for scrapping.

Lan Chile have taken a few - best I recall, they now have four of O'Leary's old clunkers.

As said earlier, Jaguar was scrapped, easily the best looking logo jet, and I had the pleasure of flying on it :).

The old eircell schemed one is used as a fire trainer here in dublin & is parked outside the fire station at the moment,european aviation took one last autumn,the rest i think were sold to be broken up for spare parts.

AFAIK various bits and pieces were illegally dumped along the south east coast by the contractor responsible for scrapping them at Southend ?

Of the aircraft that were not scrapped, 3 or 4 went to LAN Chile, another 2 or 3 are in Indonesia with Adam Air and EI-CJI went on to become G-FIGP(Paul Stoddart must really love Formula 1) with European Aviation and is still with them. The rest are probably heading to similar homes. There's still some life left in the noisy wonders. ;)
