Famous for its luxury saloon vehicles and sports cars as well, the Jaguar brand is yet another vehicle manufacturer that keeps its aficionados and followers looking forward to the next creation that it would release on the roads and streets. Jaguar Cars is a vehicle manufacturer from Britain and with its vehicles that it has manufactured, it has kept a wide range of competitors that include brands like the BMW, the Mercedes Benz, the Porsche, the Cadillac, the Lexus, the Infiniti, and also the Lincoln.
One of the vehicles
that is running under this brand is the Jaguar XJS. This is a luxury coupe and
it has replaced the famous and world-renowned Jaguar E Type. This was done on
September of 1975. The Jaguar XJS was actually based on the Jaguar XJ saloon.
It is not as sporty as most of the vehicles under the Jaguar brand. However, it
still is a grand tourer and is also aerodynamic. During the development of this
luxury, it was actually dubbed as the XK-F. The last of its kind was produced
on April 4, 1996. In its place came the Jaguar XK8.
Upon its
introduction the Jaguar XJS was equipped with a V12 engine. Along with that,
the owner of the Jaguar XJS had a choice between a manual transmission or an
automatic transmission although soon enough the manual option was deleted off
the list of options. With this kind of machine, the Jaguar XJS is capable of
reaching 60 mph in 6.9 seconds and can accelerate to 150 mph. It has been said
that the Jaguar XJS has a revolutionary aluminium construction with space age
technology. However, despite that fact, it still has been able to retain the
elegant lines that has made Jaguar vehicles that popular.
This vehicle went
into a very quick ascent to popularity when there was a television series that
came up needing a vehicle. The television series was the popular “Return of the
Saint”. In this series, the hero, Simon Templar who was being played by Ian
Ogilvy, drives an early Jaguar XJS with the number plate ‘ST 1’. And it was
during this time that miniature versions of the Jaguar XJS were crafted. These
sold like hotcakes.
