Jaguar's XF police car being road tested

Hi All, quick message / heads up from Jaguar re the New XF currently being tested by the UK police as a pursuit car.

See below

Auto Express’ Jaguar's XF police car being road tested:
“Geoff Cousins, Jaguar's UK managing director, said: "Police forces are looking for vehicles that represent value for money, have good environmental credentials and deliver the power and performance required of a pursuit vehicle. The officers driving pursuit vehicles demand a very high level of performance and handling, as well as safety and comfort. We hope that with this amount of torque on tap – and a 0-60mph time of 5.9 seconds, we will meet and exceed the exacting standards of any officer driving this car." (Picture attached)

And a very rare five start review on Autocar of the XFR:
Autocar.co.uk Jaguar XFR *****
”Five-star road test verdicts are pretty rare in this business, but the XFR deserves one more than just about any car we can think of right now. It is a quite extraordinary machine, and what defines it most obviously is its vast, almost never-ending range of attributes.” (Including video)
