OverviewThe S-Type was produced at Jaguar's Castle Bromwich facility in Birmingham, England. The car was styled by the late Geoff Lawson and is based on the Jaguar DEW platform/ Ford DEW platform, which it shared with the now out-of-production Lincoln LS, but with substantial modifications. The supercharged S-Type R joined the lineup in 2003, and the hope was that it would compete with BMW's M5 and the Mercedes E55 AMG. The "R" was powered by a supercharged V8 producing 400hp (300kW; 410PS) and could accelerate from 0 to 60mph (97km/ h) in 5.3 s (0 to 100km/ h (62mph) in 5.6 s). It included 18 in (457 mm) alloy wheels, wire-mesh grille and dramatic monochromatic paint. The "R" also has a sportier rear apron, side-skirts, and front apron with built-in fog-lamps, a rear spoiler, a brace located near the rear subframe, and "R" badging on the boot lid and both front wings. It was the most expensive S-Type, with a base price of £50,040 in the UK (US$58,995 in the United States). » Read More About Jaguar S TYPE |
