Download or read book Jaguar XJ S written by James Taylor and published by The Crowood Press. This book was released on 2019-05-13 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Taylor remembers very well the disappointment among his petrol-head friends when the XJ-S was announced in 1975. It was not a replacement for the legendary E-type; its colours were uninspired; and its interior was drab. All credit, then, to those people at Jaguar who truly believed in the car and, over a period of nearly 20 years, turned the ugly duckling into a swan. From the moment the XJ-S HE arrived in 1981, there seemed to be renewed hope, and from then on, the car went from strength to strength to become the much-admired grand tourer it always should have been. The book contains a timeline of the key events in the history of the XJ-S and an overview of the evolution of the XJ-S from the XJ27 prototype. Packed with details it gives UK showroom prices through the year and sales in the US by year. Of great interest to all motoring and Jaguar enthusiasts, it is superbly illustrated with 192 colour and black & white photos. James Taylor has been writing professionally about road transport since the late 1970s, his primary interest is in those models that made the British motor industry great.

Download or read book You Your Jaguar XJ40 written by Nigel Thorley and published by Haynes Publications. This book was released on 2002 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The XJ40, mainstay of Jaguar production from 1986 to 1994, was the last saloon in which Sir William Lyons had any styling involvement. It broke new ground with its technological sophistication and, despite electronic and body problems, was the saloon which reintroduced the marque to a younger buying public. Today the XJ40 -- more reliable than previous models and economic to buy and run -- is an important 'entry level' model for first-time Jaguar buyers and has a large following. It is an ideal candidate for the You & Your series which provides an 'ownership companion' approach for relatively recent cars of strong enthusiast interest.
Download or read book The Complete Book of Jaguar written by Nigel Thorley and published by Motorbooks. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1935, when a small company in Coventry, England, launched a sporting saloon (i.e., sedan) called the Jaguar SS, it set in motion an inexorable process that would lead to Britain’s most beloved line of high-performance automobiles. The Complete Book of Jaguar covers the SS and all of the Jaguar's subsequent production models, from the original SS Jaguar to today’s F-Type sports cars, F-Pace SUV, X-Type sedans, as well as concept cars. As with other books in the Complete Book Series, author Nigel Thorley organizes the content chronologically with entries for each year. Narratives for each discuss the cars and technology, while spec tables highlight key technical and performance specifications. Originally begun by a couple of motorcycle enthusiasts—William Lyons and William Walmsley—as a firm called the Swallow Sidecar Company, Jaguar would become one of the world's most celebrated automakers. In England’s bleak postwar years, Jaguar became a shining star—first with its XK120, followed by the XK140 and XK150. Sporting sedans like the Mark 2 and Mark X set the bar for luxury four-door transport in the '50s and '60s. Then Jaguar stunned the world with the achingly beautiful E-Type in 1961, a genuine 150 mph super sports car. Along the way, the company competed on road courses around the world, going head to head with greats like Ferrari and Aston Martin. Though Jaguar lost its way periodically in the modern era, it has bounded back stronger than ever in the twenty-first century with a strong lineup, including the new F-Type sports car and F-Pace SUV. The Complete Book of Jaguar is the essential guide to this important chapter in the history of sports and luxury automobiles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Conservative’s privatisation programme was one of the most ambitious aspects of their attempt to redraft the political and economic map of the United Kingdom. Originally published in 1988, this book explores the processes of privatisation from a variety of standpoints. Its contributors include academics, enterprise executives and government officials, many of whom had been closely involved in the programme. Fiscal, legal and social aspects of privatisation are explored but the book treats the subject as more than an immediate political issue and takes the opportunity to discuss the success – or otherwise – of public enterprise and to explore the implication of the UK experience for other countries which have an interest in privatisation.
