Jaguar XKR-S Convertible (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 08 February 2012 10:00

This is the Jaguar XKR-S Convertible, a 542bhp drop-top with a £100,000-plus price. A Jaguar XKR-S Convertible? Sounds a bit wrong to me. Can you imagine Porsche doing a GT3 cabrio? No, but then the XKR-S coupe and GT3 are very different cars, whatever the Jag’s fighty face and mighty figures suggest. The Porsche is, was and always will be, a trackday ...

Jaguar XKR-S (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 01 June 2011 00:01

The new XKR-S is Jag’s hottest XK yet, a 542bhp beast based on last year’s 75 anniversary special but with even more power. And this time it's got mouth as well as trousers. The front end of the XKR-S features a pair of gaping nostrils delivering air to the supercharged V8, and a black mouth that gives it a very ...

Competition winner blog: a CAR reader's Jag XKR weekend

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Dominic Owen, 22 November 2010 13:02

CAR reader Dominic Owen entered this summer's competition to win a Jag XKR for a luxury weekend away at a top Cotswold hotel. Here's his blog on a weekend with the supercharged Jag.  The story starts with a persistent caller one Friday in August.  I had taken the day off and the number kept showing as ‘unknown’ - so I ignored it.  ...

Ben Pulman, 11 November 2010 09:30

Watch the video of our Icelandic adventure in Jaguar's XJ – click hereIn the current November 2010 issue CAR has taken Jaguar’s glorious XJ limousine to Iceland – it’s a worthy test of the £74,900 long-wheelbase 5.0-litre V8 Portfolio model. Jaguar's new XJ isn't a luxury car that isolates you from your environment, but a sports saloon that really involves the driver. Your ...

Jaguar XKR 75 (2010) CAR video review

Rated 3 out of 53

Sarah-Jayne Harrison, 05 October 2010 09:12

We take the fastest Jaguar since the XJ220 - the new XKR 75 - out to Germany’s Nurburgring for a video review. Jaguar has only built 75 examples as it celebrates its 75th birthday this year and in our video player below you can watch CAR writer Jethro Bovingdon as he closes in on the 174mph top speed of this boosted XKR. Updates ...

Jaguar XJ Drift blog by Ben Barry

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 31 July 2010 10:00

Elsewhere on this site you might spot me hooning about on Anglesey race circuit with Jaguar vehicle development boss Mike Cross and a pair of XFRs. But while I was there I also got a steer in one of the final development XJs – a long-wheelbase, non-turbo V8. It’s intellectually oddball styling and unrushed loungey ambience reminds me of a ...

Jaguar XKR 75 (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 21 July 2010 09:45

The Jaguar XK120 was so-called because it did 120mph, the XJ220 because it did 220mph. And this is the XKR 75... So it must do 75mph! Some kind of economy special is it? We’ll have you know that this is the fastest Jaguar since the XJ220. Instead of the usual 155mph limiter, this one can run on to 174mph before ...

Jaguar XJ Supersport (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Phil McNamara, 20 April 2010 10:36

The Supersport is the cream on top of Jaguar’s new XJ range for 2010. The supercharged V8-powered limousine is the flagship, a full-fat experience in which only 5% of XJ customers will indulge. How does the £87,455, ultimate version of Britain’s S-class drive? That’s not a Jag XJ, that’s a Citroen concept car! Whatever happened to drawing rooms on wheels? ...

Jaguar XJ 3.0 V6D (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Gavin Green, 26 February 2010 00:01

brightcove.createExperiences(); We have to look back to the early Bangle BMWs, or to Tom Ford’s extravagant efforts at Gucci, to see a similar shake-up of a company’s design DNA. Out goes the carriage-clock Jag; in comes the brave XF of 2008 and, even more, this bold new XJ, Maserati Quattroporte emotion meets Bentley grandeur, rakish coupe lines meets four-door luxury ...
