Lovely noise!

I was driving home through the Cotswolds this morning, and at one point had a Jaguar XKR in front of me.

What a LOVELY noise that car made each time it accelerated! Not particularly loud, but very sweet...

Too true.

Quite high-revving though - nothing like a Yank-tank rumble. Very quick gear shifts too - do they have paddle shift? Maybe it's an auto box...

Theyre all autos - thats what put me off the idea of getting one....no manual option at all - takes the fun out of driving it!
Does sound good, a mate at work has one, and it is nice, but still not as good as my new toy

You can't beat the noise of a V8 .....like mine
