The Jaguar F-Type has won many awards since being launched in 2013 and perfectly embodies the DNA of the British brand. Now Jaguar celebrates the world premiere of the new Jaguar F-Type in Munich. With new engines, new design and more modern technology, the British sports car should be as successful as its predecessor. Whether this can succeed, I have checked during the world premiere more closely. Source: http://quickcarreview.com
Jaguar has developed two F-TYPE Convertible rally cars, with design cues from the F-TYPE Chequered Flag Limited Edition, to continue its celebration of 70 years of sports car heritage since the XK 120 was revealed in 1948.The one-off F-TYPE rally cars also pay homage to the legendary Jaguar XK 120 registered ‘NUB 120’ which, in the early 1950s in the hands of Ian Appleyard, completed three consecutive Alpine Rallies without incurring a single penalty point, and won the RAC and Tulip.Both rally-specification F-TYPE Convertibles are powered by Jaguar’s 300PS 2.0-litre Ingenium four-cylinder petrol engine. With modifications overseen by Jaguar Design and Engineering, both cars were built to FIA specification, with comprehensively uprated brakes and suspension fitted alongside a protective roll cage, race-seats with six-point harness, bonnet-mounted light pod and fire extinguisher.
