Jaguar F-type V8 S (2013) CAR review

Jaguar F-type V8 S (2013) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Mark Walton, 17 April 2013 09:30

This is the Jaguar F-type, in top-spec V8 S guise. Its supercharged V8 engine sends 488bhp to the rear wheels, giving the £75k F-type the performance of a £100k XKR-S. But can the F-type live up to the best sports cars In the class - and its legendary E-type ancestor? Read on for the CAR verdict. Give me some more ...

Jaguar XK 5.0 Convertible (2009) first drive

Rated 3 out of 53

Don’t blink, or you’ll miss the ever-so-subtle facelift that identifies the latest Jaguar XK Convertible: reprofiled front bumpers, mirrors with integrated LED indicators, new rear valance, LED tail lights and colour-coded side vents. A bit less subtle is the direct-injection 5.0-litre V8, up from 4.2 litres and with matching respective 26% and 23% boosts to power and torque. Put simply, ...

Ok, let’s try to get through this piece without mentioning the credit crunch. It won’t be easy, seeing as Jaguar’s revised XKR is a 911/M6/SL-rivalling, mile-munching supercharged GT costing £72,400, but we’ll give it a go. In a conscious effort to shake off the shackles of the ‘old man’ image Jaguar is making bold claims about the technology in not ...

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 23 May 2008 10:32

Here’s the car Jaguar fans have been waiting for: the XKR-S, the fastest, hardest-looking XK so far. Available only in Ultimate Black as a limited run of 200 in right- or left-hand drive for European-only markets, the XKR-S is yours for a fiver short of £80k. Read on for CAR Online’s first review. How much extra power has the Jaguar ...

Jaguar XKR Coupe (2006) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Another old engine in a new shell; why should I get excited? True, both the new XK and now the new XKR use drivetrains largely carried over from the last-generation XK. But there wasn't much wrong with the old engines, and a whole lot right with the new chassis. The extra power of the supercharged XKR - 420bhp versus 300bhp ...
