THE WAIT IS OVER. THE F-TYPE COUPÉ IS HERE. You’ve read about it, you’ve seen it. Now you can drive it. The Jaguar F-TYPE Coupé, delivers on every level. It’s a car that proves balance is a beautiful thing. In fact, balance was a key part of the design and engineering team’s brief. A low centre of gravity was the design starting point. And from there the team focused on perfecting the car’s weight distribution, considering every aspect, right down to locating the battery and washer bottle at the rear. This meticulous attention to detail and perfection has delivered amazing results. It’s most evident in the F-TYPE R Coupé. The supremely light and stiff aluminium architecture enables the car’s 5.0 litre V8 550PS Supercharged engine to deliver on its promise of a drive that is pure adrenaline. Poise and power in perfect balance, it’s a heady mix, especially when you consider the entry level price for the F-TYPE range is just £51,250. Automotive journalists concur, with Vicky Parrott of What Car? describing it as “…the holy grail of sports cars”, giving the F-TYPE Coupé five stars. Book your Jaguar F-TYPE Coupé test drive today and you’ll see why the automotive world has been awestruck by this iconic new sports car.
FIRST IN LINE.
ENTITLED TO FEEL SPECIAL. JOSÉ MOURINHO RECEIVES HIS NEW F-TYPE COUPÉ.
Now, the edgy mastermind of British football has yet another reason to feel at the top of his game. Because, at the recent VIP launch party held in London’s Canary Wharf, José Mourinho was introduced as ambassador for the new F-TYPE Coupé. The role is obviously one that sits well with Mourinho, and on the night he was clearly relishing being the first customer in the UK to receive the keys of the new Jaguar.
The Chelsea Manager was just one of the many high profile guests who attended the night, which included Gary Lineker and Anthony Joshua. If you’re feeling a pang of jealousy, the good news is, the cure is at hand. The F-TYPE Coupé is now available to test drive.
‘GOOD TO BE BAD’. THE TRUTH IS, BRITS MAKE THE BEST VILLAINS. INTELLIGENT, STYLISH AND OBSESSED WITH POWER. THERE’S A PRECISION TO THEIR MOVEMENT THAT CAN NEVER BE IGNORED. IN MANY WAYS THE NEW F-TYPE COUPÉ SHARES THEIR TRAITS. Oscar-winning British Director Tom Hooper really embraced those cues when creating the Hollywood blockbuster style commercial ‘Rendezvous’ for the launch of the stunning new model. A classic piece of British verve, ‘Rendezvous’ features three movie villains of the highest calibre – Sir Ben Kingsley, Tom Hiddleston and Mark Strong. At the heart of the action is the pursuit of power, with the F-TYPE Coupé supplying all the thrills of why it’s ‘Good to be Bad’. High performance, instantaneous response and supercharged, it’s hardly surprising that the new F-TYPE Coupé’s star quality stole the show during its debut at this year’s Superbowl. The action packed TV commercial is now showing on UK screens. Go behind the scenes with the cast of British villains, and learn how the ‘Rendezvous’ film was created at goodtobebad.co.uk
JAGUAR XE REVEAL GENEVA MOTORSHOW
XE XE. A NEW BREED.
The 2014 Geneva Motor Show saw the announcement of the Jaguar XE, which marks a significant expansion of the Jaguar range.
The Jaguar XE has succeeded in meeting the challenge of being the most advanced, efficient and refined sports saloon in its class and is set for production in 2015.
The all-new medium sized sports saloon will be built on an aluminum monocoque, making it the first car in this segment to use such innovative architecture. Adding to the unparalleled lightness and stiffness will be the perfectly balanced power of the all-new Ingenium engine series. This new series of engines – built at Jaguar’s new facility in Wolverhampton – will offer a high degree of choice. So, if you’re looking for raw power the platform the XE will be built on will be capable of generating top speeds of over 186 mph. Alternatively, if emissions are key, then you’ll be pleased to know that the XE will deliver emissions lower than 100g of CO2 per km.

AN AWARD WINNING FUSION OF THE CLASSIC AND MODERN. Shorter nights, longer days, it’s hardly surprising that convertible drivers tend to smile more when spring is upon us.
Of course the iconic E-Type is probably the most famous convertible in automotive history. So when Jaguar set about developing the F-TYPE the bar was already set high. The team’s work has hit the mark with the F-TYPE Convertible being named ‘Best open top car’ at the UK Car of the Year 2014 Awards, beating stiff competition
from Audi, BMW and Lotus. The judging panel comprised some of the most respected automotive journalists in Britain including Tom Ford of BBC Top Gear Magazine and Autocar contributor Richard Bremner. UK Car of the Year committee Managing Director John Challen said: “The generations of drivers that missed out
on the E-Type have a new icon in the F-TYPE. The F-TYPE has succeeded in capturing the best elements of a classic – in a modern day package.” Contact us today to book your test drive in the F-TYPE Convertible, and we guarantee you’ll be smiling too.

THREE YEARS AT THE TOP FOR THE JAGUAR XF.
A TOUR DE FORCE. TEAM SKY AND THE XFR-S SPORTBRAKE. TEAM SKY’S CHRIS FROOME AT THE GENEVA MOTOR SHOW FOR THE OFFICIAL NAMING OF JAGUAR’S FIRST HIGH-PERFORMANCE SPORTS ESTATE.
Chris Froome, more often spotted leading the peloton, joined Jaguar at this year’s Geneva Motor Show to reveal the new XFR-S Sportbrake, the newest addition to Team Sky’s vehicle line up. The XFR-S Sportbrake, based on the high performance XFR-S Saloon, effortlessly blends real-world versatility with high performance. Alongside offering 1,675 litres of rear load space, the 5.0 litre supercharged V8 engine produces 550PS and 680Nm of torque, giving it a blistering 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds and top speed of 186 mph.
As Chris pointed out, “we’ll certainly have the fastest car in the peloton!” The news at Geneva followed the announcement of an enhanced two-year sponsorship deal for Jaguar to become an Official Partner of Team Sky. Now as their ‘Innovation Partner’ Jaguar will provide the team with design and engineering resources to further enhance their performance, and the pursuit of more yellow jerseys. The XFR-S Sportbrake will be available from April 2014.

PERFECTION. IT’S BUILT IN.
With a history steeped in the pursuit of perfection, Jaguar has maintained a relentless dedication to British engineering, innovation and quality. And it’s even more evident today, with the announcement of Jaguar’s £500 million investment in a new Engine Manufacturing Centre in Wolverhampton. This will be the future home of the all-new Ingenium series, a new breed of high-output, fuelefficient petrol and diesel engines, which will power the new Jaguar XE.
This new centre brings engine supply back to Jaguar’s production doorstep. It also means a significant new resource to support continuing innovation. It will facilitate the foundation of a world-class manufacturing team of highly skilled engineers and manufacturing specialists, with the first phase seeing the creation of 600 manufacturing roles in the next four years. Focusing on nurturing teams of the highest calibre is key to Jaguar’s ultimate success. That commitment has already been commended in the satisfaction levels
amongst customers when Jaguar was announced as the ‘Number 1 Car Manufacturer’ in the ‘What Car? J.D. Power Survey 2013’. The UK Vehicle Ownership Satisfaction Study was based on the evaluations of nearly 18,000 owners after an average of two years ownership. Every aspect of vehicle ownership was rated from performance, design and comfort to quality, reliability, cost of ownership, economy and Dealer service satisfaction. As you can see, Jaguar’s pursuit of perfection is very much alive.
