Arden Jaguar XKR 5.0L Convertible Revealed

In spite of car enthusiasts who thinks Jaguars are great cars by default, some people think that a couple of models could benefit from a bunch of changes, especially when talking about appearance and engine performance.

German tuning house Arden recently announced that its latest creation, the aftermarket Jaguar XKR 5.0-liter Convertible, will be displayed from August 7th to 9th in the motosportcenter at Nürburgring. The newest Jaguar from Arden is featuring a redesigned chassis, developed in collaboration with Bilsten and especially created to "improve the driving dynamics and agility" of the vehicles, as the company explained in a release.

The package also includes a high-performance stainless steel exhaust system specifically introduced to generate a sporty sound but also to increase performance and improve handling at low speeds. The four pipe system is rounded-off with the well known AJ20 Wild Cat Heck plus diffuser, Arden revealed.

The aesthetic enhancements continue with a new chrome-plated stainless steel grill plus Arden badge with "patented security fixing" and 21-inch sportline alloy wheels.

Beside all the visual upgrades, the German engineers also improved the final output of the car, with the 5.0-liter engine now generating a maximum power of 540 bhp. The maximum speed is now going as high as 320 km/h, up from 250 km/h on the stock model.

As we said, the car will be on display between August 7 and 9 at Nürburgring as part of the Oldtimer Grand Prix.
