A Jaguar XJ saloon has travelled the length of the UK on just one tank of
fuel - and then went on to top 1,000 miles in total.
The luxury XJ TDVi completed the trip from John O'Groat's to Land's End, a
distance of 840 miles, with the average fuel consumption of 53.5 mpg.
Having reached Land's End the driver headed back to Jaguars Midlands HQ
without refuelling and reached a total of 1000.2 miles before the tank ran
dry.
Jaguar claim the achievement is testament to the XJ's technological
strengths, which include advanced aluminium body construction and a
state-of-the-art, twin-turbocharged V6 diesel engine.

I've known several Jags capable of doing the same thing......

.....half the time driving under their own power and half the time on the
hook behind a wrecker.

Thanks, in no small part, to the "Prince of Darkness" - Lucas electricals.
