Latest Jag upholds the legend
The rear section displays narrow wrap-around taillights, a chrome boot beading below the emblem of a leaping Jaguar and dual large squared chrome tailpipes. Pride of place within the well appointed interior is the placement of a large red start button and a retracting rotating P-R-N-D drive selector positioned within the curvature of the centre console, and to the left of the driver. Upon the engine starting, four facia air vents open-up and one settles into the deep comfortable Bond Grain with multi-adjustment power leather seats. Satin Walnut woodgrained veneer abounds, as does the use of leather on the majority of interior trim. However, it is the amount of luxury fitments within that puts the Jaguar XF into the prestige class.
R32: A jackrabbit hatchback from Volkswagen makes a return
The designers made artful work on the placement of the chrome treatment along the front end and dual-exhaust system in the rear. Eighteen-inch wheels and performance tires distinguish the R32's muscle. The blue-painted brake calipers are a departure from the customary red seen on many performance cars, but it worked well on the VW. I think the 18-inchers are a great way to announce to the public that this diminutive hatchback - standing just 58 inches tall and 69 inches wide - is muscular, aggressive and capable. The list of safety content on this all-wheel drive compact vehicle includes electronic stability control; antilock brakes; side-impact, dual-front and head-curtain airbags; plus height-adjustable head restraints in all five seating positions. Of course, at this price-point you'd expect the R32 to be loaded with luxury convenience amenities.
