The Armoured XJ Long Wheelbase Jaguar

This luxury saloon has enhamced potentials that go far beyond daily transportation needs consolidated with added benefits of ultimate security.

The luxurious Armoured XJ Long Wheelbase offers protection from firearms and blast attack, robbery, kidnap and car jacking, and is an ideal selection for heads of state, high profile business people, diplomats and celebrities throughout the world.

Heavily reinforced with significant modifications, The Armoured XJ Long Wheelbase has been extensively adapted to compensate for additional weight and a potentially more aggressive driving style with reinforced springs and dampers to ensure an agile and safe drive.

A fully retuned variable assisted steering system (VAPS) with an increased pressure flow power steering pump realigns the increased mass of the Armoured XJ to the steering effort inputs of the driver.

The car is fitted with opposed 6 piston Alcon mono-block brake callipers to the front of the vehicle and 4 piston Alcon mono-block callipers to the rear, along with performance friction material brake pads and larger ventilated brake discs to increase braking performance. In order to cope with the extra weight, XJ's air suspension has been replaced with tough new Bilstein shock absorbers and bespoken Eibach springs- a combination tuned to optimise the balance between ride, comfort and body control.

Mark Gravener, General Manager of Mohammed Jalal & Sons, the exclusive dealers for Jaguar in the Kingdom of Bahrain, commented:
