I have to say I have owned some pretty good cars, but none have been this much fun to drive! I love, love, LOVE driving this as long as I can get around the traffic, and even when I don't, I still love it. It is spartan on the inside, but a !@#$!@# blast to drive! Thanks Coventry!

 

I adore mine. I think it's nice on the inside. It's not like my wife's VDP, but then it's not supposed to be.

Like Jeremy said of the DB9 on Top Gear, I thinks this XKR is "bite the back of your hand beautiful."

 

Just for the record, they haven't made cars at Coventry for a few years now (2004 I think). The X-type was made at Ford's re-branded Halewood (near Liverpool) plant.

All Jaguars are now made at the Castle Bromwich factory, near Birmingham.
The same factory that made Spitfires during WW2 actually!

 

Good info , thanks for posting it
