    Jaguar has been upping its game, like never before since TaTa an Indian steel conglomerate with immense funds bought Jaguar. The X351 new chassis 2010, was a game changer for Jaguar alone with the new AJ 111 generation 5 liter V-8. After seeing a 2012 0r 2013 XJ supercharged (470 HP) having a good work out on a U-Tube video in 2017 that were available used for around 30K, I knew what my next car was going to be. In 2017 Aug., I finally found a low mileage XJ L Super Sport (510 HP) at the Palm Beach FL Jag, Aston Martin dealer. After 3 yrs. I'd never get rid of this awesome,ass hauling limo/race car. Also the Project 8 midsize Jag,set the record at the Nuremberg ring 7.21 was the fastest of 12 midsize cars including BMW, Mercedes Benz etc. So if you would like one of the fastest, best handling cars with sleek elegant styling with a decadent luxury interior unlike the rest of the pack, then buy a used Jag,Indeed.Or a new one if you have $124K!!

    I’m using this video Harry as Jaguar propaganda to try and convince my Dad he should go for anything Jaguar for his next car...I’m trying to break the ‘unreliable’ stereotype here in the states! he was a young attorney in the early 80s and had friends with bad experiences and I think it’s worth another look. love your films and your purple color choice is spot on!

    Would love it if you did this same sort of video with the Testarossa (on track) / Countach. I realize they won't be as insanely impressive, number wise, as this new Jaguar... but with the context of history, it'd be really neat to see where they stood. Excellent video as always!

      @@MT-kx2uc Well nice to hear from an asshole!!! I got those figures from the Government run Insurance Corporation in the Country I live in...my quote of 20 per cent is actually on the low side. My neighbor happens to be one of the directors...I have discussed the subject with him on several occasions as i was considering importing a car from Japan.
      In 2007 The Insurance Corporation of British Columbia "icbc" looked at accident data and found right hand drive cars were up to 40 per cent more likely to get into an accident.
      In 2009 a study by Quebec's insurer found right hand drive cars to be 30 per cent more likely to get into a crash.

    I had the opportunity to drive the car both on track and road and I can only agree with you. What makes it special is the incredible versatility it offers. So easy to drive as well! It's much more intimidating to look at than to drive. I also totally agree on the 4 seater variant: as a saloon, it has virtually no competition. As a 2 seater, you could have an AMG GTR, a Nissan GTR, a Porsche GT3... It's less exclusive. Fun fact by the way: the exhaust is so loud it's been homologated in Europe by 1db only ;)

    A true killer in the secondary roads. Its quick realease troque curve is just "sans pareil".

    I'm happy for Harry, but happier still for having chosen an F90 M5 for myself. I don't know how they compare around a track, because I only drive on public roads, but 0-60 in 2.8 sec., puts a big smile on my face. How boring would it be if we all thought in identical terms regarding choice in cars. Enjoy the new toy Harry!
