According to Autocar, a team of development drivers have been seen at the track testing the car and they are aiming to lap the German track in less than 7:32 minutes. The current record holder is Alfa's Romeo's Giulia Quadrifoglio.

 

Strictly limited to only 300 units globally, the Jaguar wants the record on their hands before the first customer deliveries.

 

The XE SV Project 8 is powered by a supercharged 5.0-litre V8 and is paired to a eight-speed ZF automatic transmission and is Jaguar's fastest-accelerating model with a century sprint timing of 3.3 seconds.

    Why oolong tea could be the superior drink of choice at lunch

    Coffee - without sugar! - has long been (and still is) my go-to option to accompany my lunch.
