2011 Jaguar Cars XJ Sentinel Luxury Sports Saloon


2011 Jaguar has announced that it will debut its XJ Sentinel armored car version of the new XJ – Jaguar XJ Sentinel, the armoured version of the new XJ luxury sports saloon which will make its official debut at the 2010 Moscow International Motor Show from August 25-29. The XJ Sentinel luxury sports saloon has armor plating that it’s earned B7 levels of ballistics protection, which the new XJ Sentinel luxury sports saloon is promised stop attacks ranging from .9mm guns to explosives.

Constructed from specialised high strength steels with Kevlar backing, the armoured inner cell was engineered in partnership with Centigon, a leading global specialist in vehicle armouring. The Jaguar XJ Sentinel offers ballistic protection up to B7 level (BS EN 1522 level FB7 and BS EN 1063 BR7-), blast protection against 15kg TNT equivalent detonated within close proximity of the vehicle, and substantial under floor grenade protection.
The 2011 Jaguar Luxury Sports Saloon XJ’s aerospace-inspired lightweight aluminium body structure also makes it possible to offer a very generous 500kg payload for passengers and luggage without compromising vehicle performance. The 2011 Jaguar Luxury Sports Saloon XJ Sentinel is the ultimate armoured luxury limousine. It offers governments, security organisations and private individuals, the highest level of security, with advanced design, refined performance and a beautifully-crafted cabin.
Despite being equipped with so much anti-weapon systems, Jaguar says the Sentinel is “virtually indistinguishable” from the base XJ luxury sports saloon mode. Long wheelbase of the XJ Luxury Sports Saloon forms the basis of this unique Jaguar too. 245/45 19? Dunlop Self Supporting Technology Run on Flat tires supported 19-inch Aleutian Alloy Wheels make the car highly competitive for the role it is designed. The weight of the car has been seriously increased, and Jaguar XJ luxury sports saloon decided to put its most powerful engine available in this baby, the 5.0-litre 385PS AJ-V8 Gen III naturally aspirated direct-injection V8 petrol engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. As a result, the car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 9.7 seconds while the top speed achieved is 195 km/h or 122 mph.

“The Luxury Sports Saloon XJ Sentinel was designed and developed in partnership with industry leaders, and incorporates the very latest armoured vehicle systems to deliver extremely impressive levels of protection, while maintaining a very discreet appearance,” said Mike O’Driscoll, Managing Director, Jaguar Sports Cars. The Luxury Sports Saloon XJ Sentinel comes with a three-year/50,000-mile warranty and can be serviced at any Jaguar dealership. So it’s a practical choice, too. To enhance passive safety, the Sentinel retains full functionality of the standard XJ luxury sports saloon restraint system, including dual-stage driver and front passenger airbags, side thorax airbags and side curtain airbags.

Citroen DS3 Racing

The Citroen DS3 Racing will cost £23,100 when UK sales start in early 2011. That’s a lot for a fancy three-door Citroen C3 but, with right hand drive production limited to just 200 units, demand should comfortably outstrip supply.





Based on the existing DS3 DSport THP 150, the Racing version has an uprated 1.6 lire turbo engine which produces 204 bhp (152 kW / 207 PS) and 275 Nm of torque. Consequently, performance is rapid with the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint taking only 6.5 seconds. Top speed is 146 mph (235 km/h).



To go with that extra power, the chassis has also been tweaked. The DS3 Racing gets bespoke dampers, wider (by 30 mm) front and rear tracks and a lower (by 15 mm) ride height, all of which is claimed to sharpen the handling and enhance control. The brakes have also been beefed up, with Citroen fitting four piston calipers and upgraded front discs.



As would be expected given the price, equipment levels are fairly generous. Standard specification includes climate control and Bluetooth connectivity, although not throwing in satellite navigation too is just being stingy.



Available to order from the beginning of September, the DS3 Racing comes in two colour schemes: Obsidian Black pearlescent body with a Sport Orange roof, or Polar White body with a Carbon Grey roof. Whichever is chosen, the roof colour is carried across to the dashboard fascia, tailgate spoiler, door mirrors, alloy wheels, Citroen chevrons and the grille surround.



Completing the look are plenty of carbon fibre bits to emphasise the Racing’s sporty credentials. On the outside these include the wheel arch extensions and rear diffuser, while inside the centre console, steering wheel and door inserts all get the carbon treatment.



The DS3 Racing is going to be up against other expensive superminis such as the equally fast £21,875 Mini John Cooper Works, or the marginally slower £19,650 Renault Clio Gordini 200. But it’s also worth considering that on price it will actually be competing with hot hatches from the segment above, for instance the £23,160 Renault Megane Renaultsport 250 Cup and the £21,500 Seat Leon Cupra.



However, perhaps what really puts the DS3 Racing’s steep price in perspective is knowing that an extra £3,000 would buy something like a BMW 125i M Sport Coupé, with its rear-wheel drive and 215 bhp (160 kW / 218 PS) six cylinder engine.
