Nice!  8-)

It seems to be pretty economical for the engine size and power too - could be an interesting addition to the police force!

trust me you would never get away!  That 3L diesel is something else, its cleaner and more economical than my 2.7 and 33% more powerful!  :o

This is the late 1960s/early 1970s Jaguar Police cars I remember, apart from the ones in the late 1950s.

The met were using them in the early 1970s and near Wandsworth I once saw the incrediable sight of five of these Jaguars 'pounce' on this lone car and surround it!



Ah, the memories! 8-) 8-) 8-)

Good to hear Gaffers :y - I rather fancy it myself (car)

Either way, the XF's parallel sequential turbocharging should provide all the necessary in-gear, as well as emergency, response.

I'm just thinking that the technology might be a tad on the sophisticated side for extended police work. :-/
