With 542bhp, the Jaguar XFR-S finally has the firepower to go directly up against the German elite. Steve Sutcliffe pitches it against the mighty Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG in the ultimate supersaloon battle.

Drifting off again
A decent enough review,but as is so often the case Steve cannot resist smoking rear tyres in childish drifting. It may be fun on a closed circuit,but for how many cars of this type and price is it of any relevance,safety or legality in the real world?
There is also the ever more apparent issue of JaguarLandrover charging truly premium prices for their new products - I think £80k is simply too much for this car,which is probably £10k overpriced.

Driving over sheep
Would never dare driving so fast with so many sheep around. But in one part of the vid. one can see a sheep entering the road just after him passing clearly intent on crossing.
