Minor facelift for the Jaguar S-Type 2008
For the 2008 Model Year, all S-Types gain the sporting S-Type R bumper and mesh grille. An upgraded range of alloy wheels adds to the sporting appearance of the 2008 Model Year cars.
A multi-spoke 17-inch Antares wheel is now standard on the least expensive models, while all SE versions now feature the 18-inch Triton alloy wheel.
The Limited Edition XS model has also replaced the existing S-Type Sport model with a dynamic Exterior Styling Pack, Sport interior and 18-inch Mercury wheels.
At the top-of-the-range, the S-Type R now comes with a 19-inch wheel – the Barcelona – as standard.
The S-Type's interior is also upgraded, with the introduction of multi-function seats with non-perforated leather in a more contemporary style instead of the previous Classic seat for all SE models.
The entry-level cars now come with Jaguar's six-speed automatic transmission, leather seats and a leather-trimmed steering wheel as standard, while a new Satin Mahogany veneer is available as an option across the range (excluding XS).
UK Managing Director, Geoff Cousins, said: "These specification enhancements offer our customers a real value-for-money proposition – whether petrol or diesel, the S-Type delivers a combination of bold, athletic styling and unrivalled emotional appeal underpinned by outstanding driving dynamics."
