It has a nice (not really, more of a growl) purr when you drive it.
I love jaguar, it is the best car ever! It is a nice, soothing ride, it is expensive, but it is worth the investment! It even sounds good when you drive it! Consider buying the jaguar xj! It was my favorite when I was test driving all of the jaguar cars.

2001 Jaguar supercharged 4 door
Very fast. Performance restriction when not connected properly. Comfortable and lots of perks for it being a 2002. My husband dropped a supercharged motor in his Jaguar and he has a lot of misfires so I think he doesn't have a sensor or plug hooked up correctly. Other than that the repair on it is a lot cheaper than expected because we usually go to the junkyard. Most people have these cars and I didn't even know how popular they were.
