  Beautifully styled, like the big cats themselves, the fully updated third edition of this well-received book provides a brief historical overview followed by authoritative descriptions of the cars - saloons, sports cars and GTs - from the Mk V and XK120 of 1948 to today's XKR and XF. The importance of the new cars introduced in the 1990s in making Jaguar a volume producer for the first time is analysed, and with technical specifications, driving impressions and buying hints, this adds up to a veritable feast of information. This title is a must-have purchase for all Jaguar enthusiasts.
