Top Gear: Jaguar XFR vs BMW M5

Posted: Wednesday 22 July 2009 by Alison


I love the style of the new Jaguar “design direction” and in case you were wondering if it’s all style and no substance, here’s Top Gear to the rescue. In this video the new Jaguar XFR is compared to the ultimate in sports sedans - the BMW M5.

Apparently 155 mph is not actually the top speed (Jeremy gets at least 162 out of the Jag), the XFR is really comfortable and you can do corners like an F1 driver “wearing brogues”. Really impressive features include the suspension and electronic differential. “Perfect, even when you’re driving like a complete lunatic”. I’m sure Jaguar is thrilled…

The M5-XFR challenge is an interesting one, and you’ll have to watch the video to see who wins around the track (although the XFR is voted better on the road).
