After owning my 2010 Jaguar XF S V6 Diesel Portfolio for just about three years, I’ve finally decided it would be time to share it with my YouTube community. Enjoy this presentation, as I have in mind to make a bunch of content with this car.
This week I happened to walk past the BMW dealership in Blackrock, Co. Dublin in Ireland. I looked at all the new and used cars they parked outside and first thought: Wow that’s a lot of high performance cars. Many of them have M packages (M for Motorsport, of course), meaning that they have the front and rear bumpers of the M variant of the respective model. M badges on the sides, the wheels and on the steering wheels.
Upon closer inspection I quickly realized that most of them are actually pretty reasonably powered cars and that most of the aggressive looking cars are much lower powered diesel cars. For example, instead of the X5 M comes with a 4.4l V8 engine, delivering 575 hp. The white x5 here is actually a sDrive25d M Sport diesel delivering 231 hp. Same story for the 420d convertible and the 5 Series Touring; They are literally sheep in wolf’s clothing.
However, rest assured that there are also some properly powerful and fun to drive cars available. Check out the video below and discover for yourself:
