Beskrivning

The Jaguar XK was launched to great acclaim in 1996 as the successor to the XJS. Jaguar’s XK sports models were produced from 1996 to 2014 in two distinct forms: the original steel-bodied XK, and, in 2005, the advanced technology aluminium-bodied New XK. Highly significant for Jaguar, these cars reintroduced the world to Jaguar sports car motoring and, in doing so, echoed the success of previous icons, such as the E-type.The original edition of this book covered just the X-100 (original series) XKs from 1996 through to 2005. This edition, now in paperback, brings the story up to date with the X-150 alloy-bodied cars, from 2006 through to the end of production in 2014. A significantly enlarged work, packed with information and over 130 additional full-colour pictures, this fascinating book is essential reading for all XK owners, prospective owners and enthusiasts – the perfect XK ‘handbook.’

4/5

4/5
XK-bibel för Jaguar-entusiasten.
En mycket ingående beskrivning av hela modellserien med tillhörande bilder. Författaren vet verkligen vad han pratar om. Oumbärlig för den som går i köptankar av en XK. Pryder även sin plats i Jaguarhyllan. Rekommenderas varmt.
