Jaguar  XK-Series 2009 2010: Reviews and SpecsJaguar XK-Series 2009 2010:, First saw the new XK 2009 in the Jag showroom after going in to price up older shape XK and just had to have one, sleek lines, great chrome mesh nose, usual classy jag interior. to drive even better usual smooth auto system with manual steering wheel gear change if you feel the need for manual, best of all I've owned a lot of sports cars Porches, Lotus but none have attracted as many looks just love this car!, say no more Over the past 45 years I have owned nearly all of the luxury cars on the market and the only one I would rate higher is the Ferrari which is not really fair because it is in a completely different class. Before I bought the XK I drove the Benz 500 series, the BMW 6 and 7 series and the Aston Martin and always came back to the Jag. The body style turns heads where ever you go. The Jag XK is a far better car and much better value than the Aston Martin coupe which feels underpowered and is somewhat difficult to see out of at all angles. The electronic system is fantastic and although the Nav system takes some getting used to it is great. It is impossible to make a mistake buying this car. Ford has done an unbelievable job of totally cleaning up the quality mess Jaguar was in for so many years. I just hope the new owner of the company keeps it going.
The 2009 XK-Series is a 2-door, 4-passenger luxury sports coupe, or luxury convertible, available in 4 trims, ranging from the XK Coupe to the XKR Convertible. Upon introduction, the XK Coupe is equipped with a standard 4.2-liter, V8, 300-horsepower engine that achieves 16-mpg in the city and 25-mpg on the highway. The XKR Convertible is equipped with a standard 4.2-liter, V8, 420-horsepower, supercharged engine that achieves 15-mpg in the city and 23-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard on both trims.
