As much as I like the video, I feel that we are only getting 50% of the experience as Jaguars have the most beautiful sounding engine. Drop the overused shit music and turn up the sound of that beautiful beast!
No. This was the X350 ('03-'10), a brand new all aluminium XJ (in 2002). Although it looked old fashioned, it was cutting edge and is still the only all aluminium car in its class. In spite of this, it was a much stronger shell than the old steel one. ('97-'02)
The X type shared a chassis with the Ford Mondeo, which I think is what you mean.
The S type ('98) was based on a Lincoln I think, but the suspension was radically improved in 2002, and it became a much better car.
Good Lord, that's quite something! To be able to corner that flat, while also riding as well as the old XJ does, is little short of a miracle... what isn't so surprising is the fact that Mike Cross, Jaguar's chief chassis engineer, might as well have 'sideways' as his middle name, he's famous for drifting.
I already got different set of wheels on my XJR, but they are called 20" callsto oem wheels, for anyone interested, they seem to be Euro spec, so the states don't have that option. thanks anyways
This is the lightest car in it's class- only about 1600kg. That's thanks to it's all aluminium construction. The BMW's and Mercs it competes with are around the 1900kg mark...
This is the King of the cars. What a special, classic , eternal character is that... a miracle on wheels. The true car 4 any true male. Better from sex... telos.-
this music sucks!!! idiot!

One of the legends on the road....BMWs is the E34, and this is the Jaguars...probably the last great car they made. My next car to purchase I hope!

Beautiful.
I love how relaxed the driver looks as he lightly grips the wheel while surrounded in wood and leather.
Definitely the way to do it.
