Arden is a well-known tuning firm based in Germany that specializes on Jaguars and Range Rovers. The company is getting ready to launch their first Jaguar XF product that bears the name “XF AJ 21”. For the time being, Arden has only released a teaser picture of the car featuring a luscious bodykit that includes a new front bumper with Audi-style LED lights, a redesigned grille, side skirts with air vents, new oval-shaped mirrors, different alloy wheels and new side vents. -Continued
Unfortunately, Arden hasn’t announced any details on the mechanical updates but it shouldn’t take long. From what we gather, the XF AJ21 will probably get the same heavily modified 4.5-liter supercharged V8 as the XK AJ 20 Coupe that delivers 480 Hp / 353 kW and an awesome torque of 640 Nm or 472 lbs-ft at 3,850 rpm/
It is nice they the tuner didn't forget about the leaping Jag emblem. Now it is more Jag.

the grill wasn't the problem with the design. It's those bug eyed headlamps that are nothing like the sleek cat eyes of the concept. That feature alone turned a sweet concept car into grandma's daily driver.

The Xf's headlamps are not its best attribute but as one reviewer has said the key to appreciating this design is the extremities of the front and the back as well as the detailing. In real life, the contours from the rounded lamp to the bonnet and the sporty bulge at the centre of the bonnet look gorgeous. This has been said many times before, the XF looks MUCH better in the flesh than any of the pictures I've seen. I was disappointed by the round headlamps at first as compared to the C-XF but seeing one in real life changed my perception of it.
When the 5-er came out people were dissing the way the headlamps were curved upwards like feminine eyelids but the design has matured and has been accepted: you hardly hear anyone referring to that these days. This XF in my book is beautiful when compared to the 5-er, E, A6 or GS. To call it "grandma's daily driver" is grossly unfair, might I suggest that label be attached to the E or the previous S-Type? ;)
