oops! I think it had an ECU tune and bigger supercharger to get 600bhp, but otherwise stock. And I’m not so sure about my conversion from mph to kph…

well, Jag has just announced that they hit 225mph (390kph) in an XF-R, with stock engine (5 litre supercharged) and transmission but minor aero mods. Kinda makes the W427 look like a plodder, if you are comparing big 4 door sports saloons with room for the kids.

Thank you for purchasing a new Jaguar. As a new owner you will be pleased to know your car will use the new “JagDrift” (JD) cornering system, as demonstrated by all pictures so far released of this car in motion. Upon approaching a corner your Jaguar will automatically apply more power than the tyres can handle and coupled with “advanced” steering corrections your car will make cornering more enjoyable for you. At Jaguar…we though ESP was just boring!

The pre face lift XK looked better. I liked the old back lights and front bumper much more than that. It wouldn’t stop me though, after all I’ll probably love it tomorrow.

That is extremely good fuel consumption for that engine. I only wonder how heavy it will be as the normal XF is already quite a porker.
