Project X100
Codenamed X100, the XK8 had to hit the ground running in terms of sales success. From studio sketches to show stopper, here's how it happened |
XK8/R timeline
Though it changed little externally over its nine-year production run, the XK8 was developed significantly under the skin. Here we chart the changes year by year |
Scrapbook - 420G
The 420G was the ultimate version of what began as the Mk X. Thoroughly upgraded but just as imposing, it's a very rare beast indeed today... |
Braking with tradition
Jaguar's disc brake system, developed with Dunlop, was incredibly efficient in all but one area - the handbrake... Making it perform was quite a challenge! |
Supercharged, super value
400bhp, four seats - and a price tag that won't break the bank. Too good to be true? Not if you're after an S-TYPE R it's not. We put a 2004 model to the test |
A dozen good reasons
A retired engineer and Jaguar enthusiast shows us how he transformed his Series 3 E-type to his own tastes. Was the comprehensive overhaul worthwhile? |
A sound start
Founded in 1966, the British speaker manufacturer Bowers & Wilkins has recently begun working with Jaguar. A trip to its factory was a real eye-opener... |
Majestic moments
Aimed squarely at the chauffeur market, only 267 examples of the XJ40 Majestic were built. We drive a pristine example - is it underrated or overstated? |
