2011 Porsche 911 GT2 RS

Stuttgart. The most powerful and high-performance road-going sports car in the history of the Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, is not only fast on the road: all 500 units of the limited edition 911 GT2 RS were sold to customers within an extremely short amount of time. Presented at the Moscow Auto Salon on August 25th, this top model emphasizes the success story of the 911. The Porsche 911 GT2 RS embodies what Porsche Intelligent Performance stands for. Despite the fact that its power has been enhanced by 90 HP, its fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have actually been reduced by about 5 percent compared to the 911 GT2, bringing them down to 11.9 l/100 km (NEDC) and 284 g/km, respectively. The highly-efficient, 3.6 liter six-cylinder boxer engine boosted by two turbochargers with variable turbine geometry (VTG), offers 620 HP and accelerates the high-performance sports car from zero to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds.

2011 Jaguar C-X75

The Jaguar C-X75 concept is both a celebration of 75 years of iconic Jaguar design and a look into the future of automotive technology. Designed as a range-extended electric two-seater supercar, Jaguar C-X75 explores the outer limits of both performance and sustainability. With plug-in capability Jaguar C-X75 can achieve a zero tailpipe emissions range of 110km (68 miles) – three times round Paris’s Péripherique – when running under battery power alone, plus a potential top speed of 330km/h (205mph) and blistering acceleration.

A sensational JET-ENGINED supercar concept from Jaguar, C-X75 has a top speed of 205 mph and accelerate 0-62 mph in just 3,4 seconds, making it the fastest ever electric road car.C-X75 uses a bonded aluminium chassis together with aluminium panels keeping weight down to just 1,350 kg, and uses four electric motors-one at each wheel-powered by Lihtium batteries, each producing 195 bhp, giving a maximum 780 bhp and a heart-busting 1,180 lb.-ft of pulling power.

The Jaguar C-X75’s 580kW propulsion system combines powerful 145kW (195bhp) electric motors at each wheel for outstanding performance. At the centre of the car sit state-of-the-art, mid-mounted micro gas-turbines. These can either generate 140kW (188bhp) to charge the batteries and extend the range of the car to 900km (560 miles) or when in Track mode provide supplementary power directly to the electric motors. The four electric motors provide torque-vectored, all-wheel drive traction and grip, essential in a car that produces 580kW (778bhp) and 1600Nm (1180lb ft) of torque.

Finished in Jetstream Silver, the Jaguar C-X75 boasts advanced design features such as a ground-breaking propulsion system, and active aerodynamics allow for an elegantly simple fuselage section that remains stable at very high speeds.

2011 Jaguar F Type

The 2011 Jaguar F-Type will be a lightweight sports car designed to rival competitive products, such as the Porsche 911. Tata is planning to use new introductions like the F-Type to break from the Ford mold, Jaguar’s former owner. The new owner believes Jaguar must invest in image products, such as the F-Type, to keep the luxury brand on top of its competition.

The F-Type concept has been around for a long time. Jaguar originally introduced it as a concept car in 2000 when the company was owned by Ford. However, Jaguar never pursued production of the vehicle. Instead, the company concentrated on more mainstream products such as the S-Type and X-Type. Ford preferred to concentrate on mainstream products instead of image products such as the F-Type

Now, it seems Jaguar and its new owner may be launching the new F-Type at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show – which, by the way, is also the 50th anniversary of the iconic E-Type. If this unveiling does happen, it would be a treat for Jaguar lovers who have wanted a direct replacement for the E-Type for far too long. It would also signal a move the Jaguar’s new owners are committed to changing the strategy at Jaguar.

The 2011 Jaguar F Type is expected to be a front engine, rear drive sports car that will be priced similar to the Porsche 911. It is expected to use a version of the 3.0L Duratec engine. The styling will likely differ from the original 2000 concept car. Design cues will probably be taken from more recent Jags such as the XF and XJ. And, there is even speculation about a new name. Tata may use and XD badge instead of F-Type.

2011 Jaguar XJ

XJ nameplate; the driving experience follows up on the promise. It's true that the previous XJ had an aluminum body and roughly the same chassis architecture, so you could argue this is little more than a reskin and a repowering. But in the first few yards, you realize it represents a comprehensive rethink of what a large Jaguar luxury sedan should be.

It's shifting away from the S-Class or A8 or 7 Series. The XJ feels distinctly sportier. The ride is no longer the waft it was with the old XJ. The V-8 isn't intended to be silent. The steering is quick, the cornering agile. The design isn't meant to communicate formality or businesslike status: It's about panache and extroversion and a bit of fun. Just look at that interior. The most stylish cabin in the world today? I wouldn't disagree.

And as to the exterior: Well, as we drive through Paris, a city where people know about style, they stop and point and stare in amazement. Driving through the countryside north of that great city, where the traffic-free rural roads roads are alternately open and sweeping or twisty and bumpy, your reporter is continually amazed too-at the numbers being passed by the speedometer needle.

That is the achievement of the new XJ. Other big sedans use a wider array of active chassis technologies than the Jaguar does; it does without 4WD or 4WS or active steering or active anti-roll. But when the others hunker into their sport modes, they tend to lose fluency. They take every opportunity to remind you what a task it is to make an elephant dance. The XJ is different. It feels remarkably unflustered and natural.

1956 JAGUAR MK1

Introduced at the October 1955 Earl's Court Motor Show, the MKI 2.4 litre was intended to broaden Jaguar's appeal beyond the volatile luxury and sportscar market sectors. Notable as the Coventry manufacturer's first monocoque design, it was equipped with independent coil and wishbone front suspension, a Panhard rod-located leaf-sprung back axle and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes (though, vacuum assisted discs soon became optional).

SPECIFICATION:The old 2.4 and 3.4 engines were carried over to the newer model with the 2.4 getting a power hike to 120 bhp, but now there was a new top spec engine. The 3.8-litre used in the XK150 the year before was now put in to the Jaguar 3.8 Mkll and was rated at 220 bhp. Prices for the 3.8 started at just below £1,800 in the UK and it had virtually no competition. With a top speed of 125 mph and 0-60 mph in 8.5 seconds the 3.8 is one of the cars that established Jaguars reputation for elegant performance. With 0-100 mph in 25.1 seconds the Jaguar was fast for its day in standard and there were plenty of people willing to improve upon those figures for money. And one of the best known was John Coombs, a Jaguar dealer from Guildford in Surrey.

DESIGN:Finished in Pearl Grey with red leather upholstery, it is variously described by the vendor as being in "very good" (four-speed manual gearbox, interior trim) or "excellent" (engine, electrical equipment, chassis, bodywork, paintwork, wheels / tyres) condition. Further vaunted as what "must be one of the best examples of a genuinely original MKI", the Jaguar is believed to have covered just 36,873 miles by the time it entered the current (second) ownership in January 2000. Documented via a series of MOT certificates, the four-door saloon has only added a further 5,000 miles to its odometer reading during the intervening seven years. To the best of the seller's knowledge, 'KHE 425' has been "garaged from new". Riding on correct type steel wheels, the MKI is thought to pleasingly retain its original upholstery, carpets, valve radio and cast-iron grille.
