This fully illustrated colour book, beautifully styled like the big cats themselves, provides a veritable feast of information, and a visual treat.
The updated third edition of Jaguar - Speed & Style includes a brief historical overview of the Jaguar marque, followed by insightful descriptions of each post-war car, including saloons, sports cars and GTs - from the Mk V and XK120 of 1948, to today's XF and XKR. The origin, development and evolution of each model is chronicled, and comprehensive specifications are provided for the engines, transmissions, suspension and body. The author also provides his driving impressions and buying hints for each model range.
The authoritative text provides a thought-provoking analysis of the new range of cars introduced in the 1990s, when Jaguar became a volume manufacturer for the first time, as well as a look at Jaguar's role as a premium brand in the Ford empire and the likely changes in the future under the new ownership of India's Tata.
Recent developments to the Jaguar model line-up are examined, including the XK8, and the mass-market S-Type and X-type, developed under Ford ownership. This new edition of Jaguar - Speed & Style is brought fully up-to-date with a comprehensive look at the stunning new XF and XK models, on which the future of the company depends.
Packed with superb colour photography, this fascinating book is a perfect addition to the bookshelves for any Jaguar owner or enthusiast.
Martin Buckley, a columnist in Classic & Sports Car magazine, has been a Jaguar enthusiast all his life. His first car was a 1960s Jaguar S-type and he has never lost his love of the marque, today owning an XJ12 Coupé. He lives near Stroud in Gloucestershire.
