Jaguar XF
When Jaguar first hit the roadways back in the day they were revered because they were often the most unique vehicle on the road and they also had high standards for overall quality. The later fact is always remained stable it was the former idea that somehow disappeared. At the end of the 1900s and the beginning of the 2000s most Jaguar designs were hard to tell from any other car on the road. In fact there were probably people who thought Jaguar had disappeared. Luckily that has changed with the introduction of the Jaguar XF.
Jaguar XF 3.0 Diesel
Over the last several years people in Britain have wondered what has happened to their homegrown luxury brand Jaguar. The UK car maker was still around, but it was being minimized and beaten by all the German luxury brands at every level. While the German brands were re-thinking luxury style Jaguar seemed to be working on creating mediocre visuals that blended in with the likes of Chevy and Ford. The good news is that someone at Jaguar must have woken up one day with the realization that they worked for a car company that was built on being unique. With the introduction of the Jaguar XF the UK automaker has once again delivered an executive car that screams that it is a Jaguar.
Jaguar XF 3.0 V6
Until recently when a person wandered into the executive car park of a major UK corporation they expected to see large saloons powered by petrol that ran on six or more cylinders. In fact, if you parked something smaller or run by diesel oil next to your fellow honchos you were nearly guaranteed an early exit from the company or at the very least being the butt of jokes during the company conference call. However with the price of petrol sky-rocketing and the diesel engines being re-developed to offer good power more and more saloons are popping up with diesel engines. For those still looking for the petrol power that can find it in the Jaguar XF 3.0 V6.
Jaguar XF 5.0 V8
Back in the day of the true luxury/executive saloon people who owned cars that sported a V8 under the hood were the envy of the executive parking lots across the corporate world. Owners of V8 powered cars thumbed their noses at running costs and focuses on the fact that they drove a car that delivered raw power. Recent shifts in technology and petrol costs have caused many in the UK money set to abandon their revered eight-cylinders and replaced them with either the smaller V6 petrol machines or the more efficient, yet powerful diesels that are offered across the class. However for people who still want the V8 power there are cars like the Jaguar XF that still plant these powerful engines under their bonnet.
Jaguar XJ
When British people think of the Jaguar brand they hearken back to a time when the only people who drove a Jaguar were people who smoke pipes, wore sports jackets and spent their days dissecting Oscar Wilde plays and discussing Jungian theories. Jaguar tried for the longest time to deliver cars that lived in that world, but sadly for them the rest of the globe stopped caring about the brand. Jaguar watched as their market share plummeted across the world. This causes Jaguar to reinvent the brand and create cars that would impress the rest of the world by still holding onto some semblance of the past. It took a little while, but it seems like they may have finally succeed.
