Jaguar S-Type: A Blend of Performance and Prestige
Jaguar Cars is actually a British based subsidiary of the
American Ford Motor Company that is quite famous for its
production and manufacturing of luxury saloon and sports cars.
It has both performance and luxury and occupies the markets for
both. Its competition is quite diverse and includes the BMW,
Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Cadillac, Lexus, Infiniti, and the
Lincoln which is another subsidiary of the Ford.
The Jaguar has certainly come through a lot and has acquired
quite a name for itself with many important and popular people
using it themselves. The British Prime Minister Tony Blaire is
driven around in a bottle-green Jaguar XJ8. In the British
television series Minder, the character Arthur Daley is seen to
be driving a Jaguar XJ6. Inspector Morse in the British
television series of the same name used a Jaguar Mark 2 to drive
about his travails. Harold, of Harold and Maude, had a Jaguar
E-Type hearse. The film 52 Pick-Up had featured a silver Jaguar
E-type, and Austin Powers also drove the same type of vehicle,
and calling it a "Shaguar". The 1968 movie Danger: Diabolik,
Diabolik drove a black Jaguar E-type and his love interest, Eva,
had used a white one. The Heist which is a made-for cable 1989
film had featured two dark green Jauar XJS couples. In the music
scene, Sting drove a Jaguar for his music video for the song
"Desert Rose", and due to this, the song had been used in past
Jaguar commercials.
At present, the Jaguar line up includes the X-type which is a
mid-size saloon; the S-type which is a luxury saloon; the XJ6,
XJ8, and the XJR, which are full-size saloons; and the XK8 and
XKR, which are sports cars and convertibles.
One of the newest Jaguars introduced to the market is the 2006
Jaguar S-type. It is a four-door luxury sports sedan that is
capable of having five passengers. This car was styled by the
late Geoff Lawson. In 2004, this had undergone a minor facelift
that refined the car's overall appearance, and also received an
aluminum hood. Advantages of this vehicle, as compared to other
vehicles in its class, includes Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS),
air conditioning, alarm, automatic transmission, CD player,
child safety locks, child seat tethers, an above average highway
mileage, leather seats, power windows and locks, side airbags,
side impact door beams, a sunroof, and traction control.
