    Jaguar seals 'significant' order





    Jaguar Land Rover has announced a deal
    to supply a Chinese company with 13,000 vehicles, providing a dose of
    good news for the beleaguered UK car industry.

    Jaguar said it was "a very significant" order, and was particularly welcome at "this challenging time".
    The order, for both Land Rover and Jaguar cars, comes as many carmakers have cut jobs after falling sales.
    Jaguar, which has plants in Solihull and Halewood, has asked staff to take a one-year pay freeze and four-day week.
    Staff will vote on the move next week, which would guarantee no compulsory job cuts....
