Controversial Jaguar TV campaign to Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Drifting

Do you remember a few years back when the new Jaguar XK came out, the company launched an ad campaign which critics had to question. The message in the ad was subtle, where is showed that older men were able to have fun with ladies of a younger age. Well it seems as if Lamborghini have learned from that Jag ad and taken their ad for the new Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 a little further. The ad was shot in downtown Los Angeles, where you could see the supercar drifting around on the roads.

This car shows you what the car can do, but I also love the messages that the new ad gives, about what will happen when you drive around in the vehicle. It shows that if you were to drive the Gallardo LP560-4, then it will help you collect the names and phone numbers of tall brunettes, now I have to get one. The ad also puts the message across that if you own one of these Italian supercars, then you will be guaranteed access to all the trendy bars in town.

Also in the video you get two see two Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4’s facing up against each other, one black and the other white, it’s as if two bull’s are facing up for a fight. The two cars then drive out of LA and then start on their long journey on long winding roads, just to show you how well they handle.

The ad is pure genius, check it out below.

Jaguar XF AJ 21 has official details from Arden the Jag-specialists

The Jaguar XF AJ 21 will become the automakers flagship vehicle; many of us have been getting exited to know just what this cat has to offer. Details of these cars have been very scarce however; Arden the Jag-specialists have decided to give us the official details of this much anticipated car. This sedan is not your usual XF; it is much more as it has that sporty edge that will help to feed the hunger of those power hungry Jaguar fans. For those who can’t wait until this summer to get their hands on the Jaguar XF AJ 21, just check out the details of this vehicle hopefully it will be just enough to wet your appetite until you are able to get your dirty little hands on this cool and sporty sedan.

The Jaguar XF AJ 21 certainly has a great choice when it comes to its power units; there is a choice of four engines all of which has received upgrades. The best of the bunch has to be the old 4.2 liter V8 Supercharged 416hp engine, which has now had a displacement increase to 4.5 liters, now this beast of an engine pushes out 500hp. If you thought that Jaguar had already done a great job with their XF range wait until you see what Arden have done with the car.

When looking at the exterior of the AJ 21 you can see that Arden have worked very hard getting the aerodynamic perfect, the car looks aggressive when looking at it head on thanks to the larger front grille as well as the larger air intakes. This is not just for looks, as the cars in the range are more powerful they need extra cooling to the engine and brakes. Arden realizes that Jags have always been for the older driver, so adding cool looking LED-day lights has helped to give it a pimped out look.

When you take a walk around to the rear of the Jaguar XF AJ 21 you will come across a small opening on the rocker panels, this are just near to the rear wheels. These are not there just to make the car look good; they provide extra cooling for the rear brakes. Not much has changed to the rear of this Jag, just a few little changes which include a marked rear diffuser as well as a subtle rear lid spoiler. The car itself sits nicely on a set of 21 inch rims from Ardens Sportline range. As the cars in the AJ 21 are more powerful you need to know that the car will handle the extra horsepower, Arden have included their special sport suspension which are more than up to the job.

You no longer have to be old and wear a flat clap to own a Jaguar.
