Nice. It still has a lot more life left in it. I know it's a dinosaur of an engine but it's the simple design that makes them so bulletproof reliable and they still produce good power and torque if done right. The Corvette is living proof of that.
I've no doubt, that the XKR is one of Coventry's finest, with a supercharged 5.0 litre V8 producing 510 bhp, menacing good looks and luxury. The Aston Martin DB9 is no exception either. Good looks, menacing 6.0 V12 with 450 bhp and luxury. Both the Aston and Jag are the best British bulldogs for the 21st century.
Aston Has the Badge But Jag has always made a better car in my opinion I have just bought a 2011 XK with 12000miles its hardly run in pick it up on the 30 June cant wait this is my third XK
This is amazing. I'm only 18 years old so a car like this is not in my budget haha. However I have been becoming more and more fascinated in this car. This full in depth tour has sealed its fate as my dream car now. Its so amazing in every way. Thank you for this video, it has truly sold me.
@zmprice91 Please explain how the interior looks like a 2000 buick. I don't recall buicks have real wood and aluminum accents, or any of the visible tech options seen here.
+imhoman I absolutely loved this car. My only gripe about it was the transmission. It was somewhat sloppy and not really up to par with the car itself or rather the engine and driving dynamics of it. Other than that, beautiful car.
+imhoman It really isn't that bad if you get the fully optioned out Portfolio version (alcantara headliner, better seats, etc...). It has the same instruments and door switches as the current F-Type
Kyle you should have uploaded the Fiesta as quickly as possible to the get the most views out of that video. You can still do that, we can't wait for it ;)
Please close the hood from the front with 2 Hands 🙌. Closing the hood from the side strains and can shift the hood off balance, giving it a gap in the fit.
I was replying to a person who wrote 5 liter engines in American cars are less powerful than 2 liter Euro motors. I said that a small and powerful engine won't last as long as a big old American V8. I wasn't talking about this car which indeed has a British built motor.
No I agree that the Germans and Japanese can extract a ton of power out of their engines no matter what the size. On top of that their engines are smoother and more refined. Some American motors like any of the GM small block V8s might be old in terms of design but they're bulletproof reliable and can produce quite a lot of power. Some legendary German motors like the M62 were great but still had their issues. Heck even MBZ V8 motors can blow gaskets and what not.
It's just a better option compared to the BMW 6 series and the Audi A5 in terms of value for money and pure exclusivity. I mean you see Bimmers everywhere and Audis are catching up in terms of seeing it everywhere. Jaguars, on the other hand, are way more exclusive, even though it's equally great if not better. I would choose an XK over any of it's competitors any day.
@saabkyle04 kyle i have been asking for the review of bmw 318 i se, or other simmilar vehicles which are reasonably priced. it would help me a lot in my shopping. thnx
I have just seen the 2012 version, i think this is FAR nicer, if in 2012 you want to buy the 2011 model new, is it still possible to buy one? or will they be no longer making 2011 model?
That is my first Saabkyle04 video I've ever seen! Been a sub since 10'
this car is sick from interior to exterior and lets not forget that rev sound oh lord, i would definitely love to have this park outside my driveway
OH MY GOD THIS CAR IS SO BEAUTIFUL!
That’s a beautiful car!!! The Jaguar XK series is one of my dream cars especially the X100 model.
Nice. It still has a lot more life left in it. I know it's a dinosaur of an engine but it's the simple design that makes them so bulletproof reliable and they still produce good power and torque if done right. The Corvette is living proof of that.
What a beautiful Jaguar! Great vid as always Kyle!
Thanks for including 0-60! I like that little bit of info being included along with horsepower and torque :)
You got that right. My Camaro has 210,000 miles on it, and sat for 8 years, and it still starts and runs great to this day.
I've no doubt, that the XKR is one of Coventry's finest, with a supercharged 5.0 litre V8 producing 510 bhp, menacing good looks and luxury. The Aston Martin DB9 is no exception either.

Agreed!
Aston Has the Badge But Jag has always made a better car in my opinion I have just bought a 2011 XK with 12000miles its hardly run in pick it up on the 30 June cant wait this is my third XK
Can never get enough of that Jaguar XK! Thanks Kyle

rwwebb392 I've seen some for $18k now
and now i have an 08
Oh yes, one of my dream cars. Only a manual transmission away from perfection for me.
Every time you say "lets start it up" I'm reminded of the Lloyd Banks song "Start it Up"
u make the best car videos ever
You local radio station is getting some King of Pop on there! Sweet!
Love the classic jag look. I'm more of an Audi guy, but these are gorgeous.
Great sounding engine ! It's nice that americans appreciate our cars and engineering !
Gorgeous vehicle, thanks for the review... I'm in the market for a Jag....
BabyGurlFaylee you look underage to be driving
Not sure if you realize this, Kyle, but perfectly timed for the 50th anniversary of the mighty Jaguar E-type!
Totally in love with this car!
u make the best car reviews ever good job man
Bought my 02 after I sold my mustang and i LOVE it. I can't wait until I get one of these!
What year was the mustang
Sounds like a beast.
Pink Yuk spoils such a good car
CANDLEBOX “Far Behind” @ 6:59 was ROCKING TIL SALESMAN changed the station....damn, “how I hate used car salesman”
One of the most beautiful cars in the world.
Gotta love the Jags!
Dude was watching you all the way, preventing a drive off...:):):)
Nice radio....very nice system.....very cool
The British version of Maserati GranTurismo. A great car by the way.
i like that you show the seat controls
@zmprice91 Please explain how the interior looks like a 2000 buick. I don't recall buicks have real wood and aluminum accents, or any of the visible tech options seen here.
Nice review, the portfolio spec in the XKR is standard and is superior to the base model XK interior. The final 2012 version is really nice too.
My dreamcar. The sound and the exterior is amazing. The interior doesnt age well though
+imhoman better interior than the first gen XK, it basically looked like they killed an entire plastic forest for the dash alone.
+imhoman I absolutely loved this car. My only gripe about it was the transmission. It was somewhat sloppy and not really up to par with the car itself or rather the engine and driving dynamics of it.
Other than that, beautiful car.
+imhoman It really isn't that bad if you get the fully optioned out Portfolio version (alcantara headliner, better seats, etc...). It has the same instruments and door switches as the current F-Type
imho
@@HenryPerez_royal_hp put it in S drive mode and the gear changes are quick and crisp :)
As Jaguar is traditionally English, it's "Jag-you-are" I think. I love the Jag, it's basically an Aston for less than half the price - beautiful car.
Wonderful review
My dad just bought this car black on tan. Drives amazing
Kyle you should have uploaded the Fiesta as quickly as possible to the get the most views out of that video. You can still do that, we can't wait for it ;)
really nice car.The quality feels even in video:)
Beautiful car. Am in the market for a 2011 now. I'd really like to find a 175 edition.
Pretty car. Thanks Kyle!
kyle goes out his way for us with these vids and yet 3 people dislike this. wtf?
very sweet car...nice review kyle
I like the color of it.
beautiful interior.
1:40 Beautiful Exhuast Note
6:44 I like that song
Please close the hood from the front with 2 Hands 🙌. Closing the hood from the side strains and can shift the hood off balance, giving it a gap in the fit.
Do you have a 06 porsche cayenne s video? If you do i can't find it on your channel
Thank you keep up the good work!
Thanks for the tour, seriously nice car, other than colour choices, could you possible want anything else in a car??
Where I’m at with decisions is between this and a CL 550
The Scots guy who was the chief designer for Aston Martin, designed this Jag, you can see his influance through out.
So there is a new Jag with a sexy backend......thank god
Thanks for this Video!!
Good Job !!!
I just cant stop drooling...
This, or Aston Martin DB9.. Any opinions? :)
This is a V8 unlike the Aston, so it sound better.
I can't believe a car so expensive and luxurious as this one does not come standard equipped with a remote start
2011. That wayyyyyyyu luxurious back then.
i love that buzzer, it sound a cat meowing
Best car reviews ever,,,,nice jag but i couldnt drive it in that colour LOL
Just fell in love
This who a real car looks!
i just got one yesterday in black it works great in performance!
TubularKid how's the maintenance fees
I love this car!
I'm awaiting that red Ford Platinum you have:)
that jaaaaaag is a brilliant car. and saabkyle is the boss.
You are aware that the original E-Type coupe was a hatchback as well, right? I'm glad they stuck to their roots, even with a fresh new design.
I like the 07-08 model XKR's. The lamp surrounds on them looks better.
The purpose of the plastic engine cover is to reduce engine noise that could heard in the cabin
That person was really making sure you didn’t take the car with you!
i like the classic jaguar lines much more. i love the jaguar xj8 model.
Just a brilliant gorgeous car!
@Bosmob To keep it clean? You know you can remove the plastic, right?
I was replying to a person who wrote 5 liter engines in American cars are less powerful than 2 liter Euro motors. I said that a small and powerful engine won't last as long as a big old American V8. I wasn't talking about this car which indeed has a British built motor.
Lots of supercharged cars you're filming lately. You should swing by my place and review my supercharged LSS
No I agree that the Germans and Japanese can extract a ton of power out of their engines no matter what the size. On top of that their engines are smoother and more refined.

Love this guy
"Show me what u have under the hood"
Man opens it...
"DUDE! That's nice!.. There's couple of hoses and that sick engine shield!"
QUALITY IS SUpERB OMG
I don't get all the hype about the whole 'push to start' thing. To me, there's nothing like the feel of turning a key.
:)
that car is fucking awsome, personally im not a fan of the red but nice. would be awsome where i live cause there is massive amounts of snow
It's just a better option compared to the BMW 6 series and the Audi A5 in terms of value for money and pure exclusivity.

@saabkyle04 kyle i have been asking for the review of bmw 318 i se, or other simmilar vehicles which are reasonably priced. it would help me a lot in my shopping. thnx
today i saw one it was a blue matte was love at first sight
is that dial pops up everytime even when you're driving ?
nice reviews man! It's a shame about Saab though
lmao, kyle looks at the back seat, thinks "there's no way im fitting in there", and moves on
LOL
Classic Jag look.
Kyle am wondering somethign, if you have COMPLETE electrical failure, and doors are locked, how do you enter teh car?,
That looks pink to me !!
i have a 2001 jaguar xkr convertible and i love it so much when you punch the gas it really is a jag like this if you think its true
Hey Kyle, do a Kia Amanti! I noticed you don't have one yet.
This car rocks.
When you upload a solstice, fusion or fiesta?
The Jaguar sale staff are never more than just a few feet away during the complete review. Lol.
the 2006-present Jaguar XK is assembled in
Birmingham, England
Ok question? im about to buy one of these and with that smartkey feature can anyone just pull on that door unlock it start it and drive off?
@Friendly0Dan Tata Motors in India since early '08. Ford owned it from 1990 until that sale in '08.
the transmission on the 2006-present Jaguar XK
Transmission
6-speed automatic
I have just seen the 2012 version, i think this is FAR nicer, if in 2012 you want to buy the 2011 model new, is it still possible to buy one? or will they be no longer making 2011 model?
What does the blue mean on the tires?
for some reason i'm really curious what car you drive..?
