THE JAGUAR S-TYPE, STILL VERY IMPRESSIVE

We have already talked about the S-Type Jaguar a little more than a year ago. But since I had the opportunity to drive it for a few days once again lately, I thought it would be interesting to write another few words on this great car. It still is a great pleasure to drive the recent S-Type Jag. This car, as we now know, was engineered at the same time as the Lincoln LS (since Jaguar is now part of the Ford family of cars) and it is available with a 3.0-litre (Ford) V-6 or a 4.0-litre (Jaguar) V-8. The latter is the engine that powered my test car. The only transmission available is a five-speed automatic that can be operated like a standard shift box.
