    “Matured” Jaguar XE SV Project 8 Owners To Be Treated To Exclusive Racing Series

    Series Elite, an ultra-exclusive racing series set to kick off in May next year, is giving owners of the limited-run Jaguar XE SV Project 8 an opportunity to race each other in their 600 hp (447 kW) sedans in a 12-race season.

    Described as “a one-make racing series exclusively for the mature driver, appealing to amateur and experienced racers alike,” it seems as though the series is only open to drivers over the age of 50 who obviously own a Jaguar XE SV Project 8. As you would expect, the cars will be slightly modified to be better suited for racing. However, once the season is over, owners can get rid of the racing harnesses and have their cars converted back to normal road cars.

    During race season, cars will be kept in “centralized” team facilities while drivers will be given all the needed training, testing and race experience they need to compete in the race. Although the Series Elite website clearly states that the series is of its own, Jaguar also had some involvement in it.

    Only 20 cars of the 300 that exist worldwide will be taking part in the race, and seeing the kind of car you have to own to even be considered, it does make sense that the exclusive series is for individuals of “high net worth” who apart from the racing experience, will also be treated to dinners with racing legends, ice driving, exclusive Jaguar customer events, and a Formula E weekend to list a few.

    Racing will take part in either Europe or the UK.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • Look what’s arrived in South Africa 🇿🇦 

Nothing confirmed by Toyota SA as of yet but here is the 224 kW GR Corolla!

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
