Video review – Jaguar XF S (2014)

Posted January 13, 2021 The PetrolHeadLeave a commentPosted in Cars, Video reviews

This is the first video review for a car that I own, so it is always going to be a good review.  Having said that, I did point out what is not done well alongside the aspects of the Jaguar that I really like. The roadholding, power delivery and driving comfort in this Jaguar are […]

Video review – Jaguar XK 4.2 V8 (2006)

Posted September 6, 2020 The PetrolHeadLeave a commentPosted in Cars, Video reviews

I first drove this generation (2006 – 2014) of the Jaguar XK while I still had my Audi A5 … and I thought it a particularly nice car to cruise along in or when I felt inclined to open the taps a bit. The driving position, roadholding, looks and V8 noise from the twin exhaust […]

Video review – Jaguar S Type 2.7 Diesel SE

Posted May 17, 2020May 17, 2020 The PetrolHeadLeave a commentPosted in Cars, Video reviews

Back home in sunny Ireland and we’re all in lockdown.  So I thought I’d take this opportunity to review a Jaguar S Type that is parked on the driveway.  This model is an X206 variant from 2007 in SE trim and is powered by the Ford/Peugeot 2.7 diesel engine (spoiler alert – this is a […]

1970 Jaguar E-Type Convertible

Posted March 30, 2020April 20, 2020 The PetrolHeadLeave a commentPosted in Fantasy Garage

Unveiled to a stunned public at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type offered 150mph speed clothed in elegant proportions for only £1,500.  At that time, equivalent offerings from Mercedes and Ferrari were far more expensive. Series I The first production series ran from 1961 through to 1968, with a simple construction to […]

Video review – Jaguar F Pace 20d AWD

Posted February 29, 2020March 1, 2020 The PetrolHeadLeave a commentPosted in Cars, Video reviews

This time I have a 2016 Jaguar F Pace 20d AWD on review, again borrowed a local dealer, Kevin Giles Motors, for review.   This is Jaguar’s first foray into the SUV market, and in my opinion they’ve scored.   Look at the review videos below to see my opinion on this offering from Jaguar.   […]

Not very electrifying, Jaguar

Posted February 13, 2020February 23, 2020 The PetrolHeadLeave a commentPosted in New Cars

Firstly, I drive a Jaguar.  However, I bought the XF myself after comparing it to a Merc, an Audi and a BMW, it is not a sponsored car and it’s my first Jag, so please don’t assume any sort of Jag bias here.  Secondly, I sat in both an F-Pace and an E-Pace recently enough […]

C-Type, D-Type, E-Type … Does the F-Type hold up?

Posted November 10, 2019December 16, 2019 The PetrolHeadPosted in Cars, Spotted in the wild

Jaguar’s alphabet seems to have started at ‘C’.  They gave us some amazing automobiles with the C-Type, D-Type and E-Type.  How does the F-Type hold up to such a strong tradition of intoxicating machinery?   Well, from what I see in this car park, the F-Type holds up pretty well commercially.  There are 3 different […]
