2011 Jaguar XK Coupe
2011 Jaguar XK Coupe - Editor's Notebook - Automobile Magazine
Jaguars have more character than any other modern vehicles.

I wanted my dry cleaning, but I wanted to drive that luscious Jag. Nowhere to put the clothes, except flat across the abbreviated back buckets. It would have to do. Once I stuffed them back there and refocused my attention on the task at hand (having a great, grand drive through the countryside), I forgot about everything except just how far and how fast Jaguar has come in the past five years. They are stunningly beautiful. They are thrilling to drive hard. They are luxuriously modern. May Ratan Tata live long and prosper.
