Jaguar Xk - Stunning From Every Angle

I just got a small glance of an XK when I drove past the Jaguar dealership up my road and instantly I was hooked. I knew I had to take a closer look so I booked in a test drive the very next day. By the end of the week I have a Jaguar XK sitting on my driveway! Personally, I don’t think that there are any cars on the road, barring Aston of course, that look this good from every angle. Although it’s essentially a sport coupe it just exudes so much class. The drive is magnificent. It handles superbly especially around bends. As for the engine, it does exactly what you require of it. It’s quiet at low speed but when you put your foot down it changes into a different animal. It’s a real pleasure to own and drive but it does come at a cost – a petrol cost!

Favourite features
Amazing grunting noise when you put your foot down.

Suggested improvements
The nose if very long so sensors would be a nice touch for parking.
