Jaguar F-Type S 2013



A Jaguar F-type today with the S model and its 3.0 V6 with 380bhp. I spotted it in Manchester a few weeks ago. The V6 takes the Jag from 0 to 62 in 4.8 seconds and up to a top speed of 171mph or 275km/h. Not sure this is the best spec' I have ever seen on the F-type though...

Jaguar XKR-S convertible 2012




Unusual colour for a car today, but not so unusual for this particular model, the Jaguar XKR-S convertible in French Racing Blue. The XK is the long standing sports coupe from Jaguar. It has always had an R version, that is to say a sportier version of the standard model, but the RS was only recently introduced in Geneva a couple of years ago, and is an even sportier version of the car, with a 5.0 V8 engine and 550bhp. This means that 0-62 only takes 4.3 seconds and the top speed is 186mph or 299km/h.

Jaguar XJ-R Supersport 2012




After about 10 days of silence, new post today. Spotted in Chester a few weeks ago, this is a Jaguar XJ in its sporty "R" version. The "R" badge gives the Jag a 5.0 supercharged V8 engine with 510bhp. It takes the XJ 4.9 seconds to reach 62mph from 0 and it has a electronically limited top speed of 155mph or 250km/h.

Jaguar XKR Paramount Performance


 

Today a special edition of the popular Jaguar XKR, the Paramount Performance edition seen in Tatton Park. The 4.0 V8 engine is upgraded from 370bhp to 450bhp. The standard XK also had a new body kit, exhaust system, set of wheels... Performance-wise I will have to investigate further to tell you what difference all these changes make to the XKR.
It is a stunning looking car though and one you don't see many of!

Jaguar E-Type


 

Today, a true classic, one of the most popular British icons, the Jaguar E-Type. Spotted outside Tatton Park, this is a 1967 4.2l 2+2 E-Type in British Racing Green. Under the bonnet, this particular model has a 4.2l 6-cylinder engine which produces 265bhp and allows the car to reach 62mph in 7.5 seconds as well as a top speed of 153mph or 246km/h.
After all these year, the E-Type is still a very appealing car and I think it will remains this way for many more years!

Jaguar XKR Coupe



In a car park in Wilwslow: a +Jaguar XKR with a Performance Black Pack. The Performance pack gives a very sporty look to the car (love the contrast between the red brake callipers and the black wheels/paint!) As far as performance is concerned, the XKR has a 5.0l 510bhp supercharged V8 engine, it covers 0-62 in 4.6 seconds with a top speed of 174mph (280km/h)
I wouldn't mind one of these!

Jaguar XKR convertible

 
Spotted in Lymm village, this is a white Jaguar XKR convertible. It has a 5.0l supercharged V8 engine with 510bhp. 0-62 is covered in 4.6 seconds and the top speed is 174mph (280km/h) It isn't as "exotic" as an Aston Martin, but I would still love to be behind the wheel of one of them!
