Jaguar Stype R

[white90]

19k miles from new collected it on Saturday:

[DS3R]

Chronically under rated car.

19k from new is a very good find!

[Remagel2507]

19K !! very good find there mate - whats it like to drive ?

[soad]

Is it auto? Assume produces sweet exhaust note too

[white90]

6 speed Auto
Not noisy really supercharger Whine is the loudest noise(until the new exhaust gets fitted )
lovely to drive handles very well for a large car, we went from an SLK350
this pulls amazingly when you want to
400bhp over the 270 of the SLK.
At 19k it smells and looks like new.

we are well pleased.

Proton MPi?

Nice Jag, same colour as the Focus I've just bought as a daily hack. Looks nicer on the Jag!

Nice choice of car there, I am a fan of the noise these make!

[spaceship]

That must fly. Such low miles too.

What a buy!!

A beauty. S-Type's are such a nice alternative to the usual 5-Series, E-Class, A6 blandness of today.

[GingerWizard]

Nice car. I have a quiet place for well powered Jags, more so for this one. It was never the looks that sold it, but the ethos, the vision, the purpose. To please the owner, and surprise, all the time.

nice car.

[TVR Sagaris]

Surprisingly appealing.

[Wadeski]

I wish these came as manuals

[Beefmeister]

Lovely car.

But honestly, why do they bother even letting the bonnet open with such a pathetic array of dull black plastic on display?!

It's shameful - there's a sodding supercharged V8 under all that crap.

[flimper]

Nice

Always hated the way S-Types look, the R just about pulls it off though with the bigger wheels and grilles etc and who cares when you have the engine/interior!

[skidrisk]

Great car, I've always thought the S Type R looks stunning but it seems I'm in the minority. I can't understand that when other manufacturers go retro everyone thinks the cars are brilliant but when Jag do it they just get criticised. The good thing is that because of the looks they are quite a rare sight on the road, which I think makes them even cooler!

Have you got any photo's of the interior they're usually lovely inside.

[white90]

Inside is a pleasant place to be
Got Mr TLC coming early next month to sort a chip on the boot lid that I'm not happy with, then I can give it a decent Polish and enjoy the summer to come.
