The 1998 XKR was introduced with a supercharged version of the engine. Both the XK8 and XKR are electronically limited to a maximum of 155mph, th..

The E-Type design owed much to that of the racing D-Type, a monocoque tub forming the main structure while a tubular spaceframe extended forwards to support the engine. Conceived and developed as an open sportscar, the Jaguar E-Type debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1961 in Coupé form. The car caused a sensation, spontaneous applause breaki..

Arguably one of the most famous Big Cats from Browns Lane, these four-door saloons certainly did not pull any punches. Equipped with the same engine as Jaguar’s legendary E-Type and good for 123mph, they were rightly chosen by both Her Majesty’s Constabulary and, often, the focus of their attention as well; ‘four up and a boot full of swag’.

The 1945-1948 Jaguar Mk. IV was Jaguar's first car after World War II and were essentially continuations of the 1938-39 models. Very few of these cars were built for the righthand drive markets as steel was being rationed for goods for export. The origin of the name is rather odd since, back in 1948, there had been no Mk.
