A limited edition of Jaguar's all-wheel drive X-TYPE compact sports saloon is available in Australia for $79,990 and includes an impressive array of special features giving the car a striking appearance and performance.

The enhanced specification of the 'Limited Edition Sport' emphasises Jaguar's stylish design and the sporting driving characteristics of the X-TYPE. One of its most striking features are the distinctive 18 inch Indianapolis R Performance BBS alloy wheels. This exclusive X-TYPE is available in a new Jaguar colour called Ultraviolet blue.

Maintaining Jaguar's philosophy of combining performance, innovation, craftsmanship and luxury with outstanding value for money, the "Limited Edition Sport' also features full leather sports seats, grey silky oak veneer and a distinctive black mesh grille.

The 'Limited Edition Sport' is only available with Jaguar's 2.5 litre V6 engine and also includes as standard an automatic transmission, cruise control with steering wheel and audio controls and trip computer.

A key strength of he Jaguar X-TYPE is its Traction-4 full-time all-wheel drive system. Directing 40 percent of the engine's driving torque to the front wheels and 60 percent to the rear, Traction-4 helps maintain optimum tyre grip for control and reassurance in all weathers. But conditions do not have to be hazardous for Traction-4 to come in to its own. In the dry, on a fast, winding road, the X-TYPE's agility, poise and balance will reward the most enthusiastic of drivers.

Since its launch in October 2001, the Jaguar X-TYPE has attracted a significant number of new customers, many of whom previously may have regarded a Jaguar as beyond their reach. Delivering practicality as well as performance and style, the X-TYPE is at the vanguard of Jaguar's thrust to broaden its appeal across a more diverse customer base.

The 'Limited Edition Sport' is available now at Jaguar dealerships for $79.990.
