Jaguar Bucks County

Used Jaguar XJ 

 
Jaguar's XJ flagship sedan has a stately presence on the road, and a luxurious cabin inside. The used XJ some new options, including a Bluetooth system that's able to store information for up to five cell phones, for 2008. Standard running gear includes a 4.2-liter V-8 with 300 horsepower and 310 pounds-feet of torque, coupled with a six-speed automatic transmission. A supercharged version of the same engine powers the XJR; it makes 400 hp and 413 pounds-feet of torque. It also pairs with a six-speed automatic. The XJ's all-aluminum structure is a rarity even in the luxury segment, where many cars utilize a heavier steel frame. When the aluminum underpinnings arrived in 2004, Jaguar said they weighed 40 percent less than the steel frame they replaced. The used XJ in bucks county's air suspension can automatically lower the car and maintain its balance for the best mix of performance and comfort.

2007 Jaguar S-Type

The Jaguar S-Type got a full redesign for 2005; the S-Type's changes for 2007 mostly have to do with option packages. The biggest of those changes is the addition of an up-level SV8 package to the high-performance R trim level. Used S-Types have an elegant cabin with high-tech aluminum rather than traditional wood materials. Positioned between the company's compact X-Type and full-size XJ in size and price, the S-Type comes in three versions with distinct engines: a 3.0-liter V-6, a 4.2-liter V-8 or a supercharged V-8 for the S-Type R. Jaguar's 4.2-liter V-8 turns out 300 horsepower, while the supercharged R delivers 400 hp. Like other Jaguar models, the S-Type gets a chrome mesh grille. A Conti-Teves foundation braking system promises improved stopping distance and pedal feel for the 2007 Jaguar S-Types in bucks county. Sirius Satellite Radio and Bluetooth wireless technology are available. Jaguar's 3.0-liter V-6 produces 235 hp, and the 4.2-liter V-8 generates 300 hp. The supercharged V-8 in the S-Type yields 400 hp - sufficient to yield a 0-to-60-mph acceleration time of 5.3 seconds.

2009 Jaguar XF

All new for 2009, the Jaguar XF is a midsize four-door that will replace the Jaguar S-Type. It competes against luxury sedans such as Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, Cadillac STS, Lexus GS sedan and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The XF comes in Luxury, Premium Luxury and Supercharged trim levels. The standard drivetrain of the 2009 XF in bucks county is a 4.2-liter V-8 with the XK's six-speed automatic transmission with shift paddles on the steering wheel. Dynamic and Winter modes optimize the accelerator progression, shift schedules and stability-system operation for sporty driving and foul weather, respectively. Jaguar says the 300-horsepower engine propels the XF from zero to 60 mph in roughly 6.2 seconds. The interior combines traditional cues with contemporary touches, like a rotary knob in the center console that serves as a gear selector. With its continued dedication to ease of use, Jaguar does not use this knob as a multifunction controller like the German and some Japanese makers do.

2010 Jaguar XK

The Jaguar XK is a high-end luxury sports car that drives as well as it looks. The XK comes as a coupe or convertible. There's a higher-performance XKR version and an XKR Portfolio edition that's only available in limited numbers. Competitors include the Cadillac XLR and Mercedes-Benz SLK. The XK's interior isn't the roomiest in its class, though its front-seat legroom is far better than average and its dimensions are more than workable for adults. The backseat is such only in name. There's no legroom at all unless the front occupants slide forward and the seat cushions have oddly shaped contours. The 2010 XK in bucks county can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph. Jaguar's XKR builds upon the XK with a 420-hp, supercharged version of the 4.2-liter V-8. There's also a modified suspension that firms up the ride but sharpens the handling.

Bucks County Overview

Bucks County, located in the southeastern edge of Pennsylvania along the Delaware River is full of farmland and rolling hills in the north.  As open space is preserved, Bucks county has found a fine balance between conservation and commercial and residential development. The southern third of the county between Philadelphia and Trenton, New Jersey, often called Lower Bucks, resides in the Atlantic Coastal Plain, and is flat and near sea level, and the county's most populated and industrialized area.

The Seal of Bucks County

 In March, 1683, William Penn's Council ordered "That the seal of the County of Bucks be a tree and a vine." Penn had written that in Bucks County "the woods yield us plums, grapes, peaches, strawberries and chestnuts in abundance." The shield came from the Penn family crest. Used to certify official documents until the American Revolution, the seal was eventually supplanted by one with the official device of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The old insignia is still used on County stationary and vehicles to denote Bucks County's rich heritage. Large replicas of it in tile, made by Dr. Henry Chapman Mercer, may be seen at the Mercer Museum in Doylestown and the State Capitol in Harrisburg.
