The Jaguar S-Type has been on the market since 1999, and is due to be replaced by an all-new model for the 2009 model year called the XF. In the meantime, Jaguar has revised the aging S-Type for one last time.
The 2008 S-Type, which goes on sale early next year, gets an assortment of new wheel choices, new front and rear fascias, and a number of new standard features. All S-Types now feature the S-Type R bumper and mesh grille. While there are no new engine options, all models now feature Jaguar ’s acclaimed six-speed automatic transmission, leather seats and a leather-trimmed steering wheel as standard. A new Satin Mahogany veneer is available as an option across the range (excluding XS). Choice is further extended with the availability of a new Ivory and Charcoal leather colour combination for SE models.
Models include the S-Type Spirit, XS, SE, and R. The 2008 model year sees Jaguar Racing Green replaced with new Emerald Fire. All other exterior colours remain unchanged. Gallery after the jump…
