There’s something about being British that suits the character of a villain so well. Is it the accent? Is it the unflappable demeanour? Is it the old-world charm? Or is it… the cat?
You watch this dark commercial and be the judge – “It’s time for a change. A new plan needs a new boss. It’s time for something more surprising, more British, more Jaguar. Unleash the cat,” snarls actor Tom Hiddleston as he releases a sinister pack of Jaguar XEs into the wild, erm, we mean London’s streets.
Along the way, he manages to feed a bow tie to his pet big cat (presumably belonging to the old boss?), while his partner-in-crime Nicholas Hoult transforms an electronic F-Type blueprint into that of the XE with just a touch of the palm. Oh yes, it is good to be bad.
We recently danced with the new compact cat in northern Spain – find out what we think of the 180 PS 2.0 litre Ingenium diesel, 240 PS 2.0 litre petrol and 340 PS 3.0 litre supercharged V6 versions here.

but Jaguars are now Indian.
Jaguar Land Rover has been a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Motors since 2008.
Yes… and what that means is that Tata gave full freedom to JLR to develop products with less financial restrictions. Hence, we see exciting new line-up like the Evoques, Range Rover sports, the F-types and the XEs.
I reckon everybody knew how is the new Boss, not English by the way.
And that is the thing, the XE represents the more unique choice of the 3 Germans.
To be honest, I’d actually buy both the XE and the 3. The former for being rather good looking and looks classy yet simple inside, while the latter for being more of a heritage icon, and lets face it, nothing drives like a 3.
Half a million dollar cars, dashboard interior like Preve.
