First gen XK ...
Not only one of the most beautiful Jaguars ever, but I really think it's one of the most beautiful cars.
If I hadn't heard ownership horror stories/the interior wasn't so small/auto only I'd have bought one instead of my Cayman.
I still might get one one of these days.
The XJ-S and the second XK are handsome, with good proportions, but they aren't beautiful.
Your favorite modern Jaguar Coupé?
Well, if we exclude the Legendary E Type, and the current F Type ( which is my absolute favorite modern Jaguar Coupé ), we had: The XJ: Then, from 1996 to 2006, the XK first generation: Replaced by the XK second generation, in 2006: If I had to choose, it...
In complete agreement :)
They knew they were hiring the best when they brought Ian Callum for the second generation XK ....
Buying a Jag is always about being flamboyant
so allow me to cheat a little and propose the Lynx Eventer xjs shooting brake I was fortunate to get a ride in the Xjrs version as a child : it left a Big impression. there must be a handful of such examples in the world ...

Agree. With a personal preference toward XJ
Agree also on the F Type Tried the V8. A specimen of gorgeous with growl. Considering personal and practical reason I will take F Type V8 over for E Type. Forgive Me Vlad
The most beautiful car...
The Jaguar XJ series 2 two-door coupé The Daimler Double-Six and Sovereign 4.2 Two-Door Best Regards Livius ...
Coupé or two door saloon?
In the brochures from 1977 the Jaguar is a coupé and the Daimler a two door saloon. LdB
I am bias of course, as I own a 2nd gen. XK (X150), but I really think it is the best, in modern era..
I drove a previous XK8 (1st gen), they feel and drive pretty much like an XJ from the same era.. The dashboard is very similare too, the car feels heavy. The XK 2nd gen. With its aluminum body and upgraded gearbox, is more responsive, and dives better. It...
2007 for me!
I purchased a one new back then. Sold my 95 wide body Porsche to get it After the XK moved on to the XJL. Equally wonderful.
