Filed under: ARDEN Car News | ARDEN Headlines
As long ago as 1982, Arden was the first company in the world to tune a Jaguar XJV12 and it caused a real stir '“ with the Arden AJ 1. The company Arden Automobilbau GmbH has remained true to its roots over the years and is now presenting the latest Jaguar XJ 351 in the Arden design. The hand-made stainless steel grille gives the Arden Jaguar AJ 22 an elegant and sporty look, which is crowned by the Arden bonnet ornament. An exclusive feature for the XJ are the LED daytime running lights for the standard front-end that have been matched to the vehicle colour or can be delivered in a chrome-plated version if required. They have been worked into the silhouette perfectly and guarantee safety as well as being a real eye-catcher. The Arden high-performance exhaust silencer system is made completely of stainless steel. The chrome-plated twin tailpipes give the XJ a sporty touch that is emphasised by the powerful sound.

Arden offers different performance packages for ambitious drivers. For example, the 5.0l compressor combined with the Arden high-performance exhaust silencer system and Sport metal catalytic converters can achieve an increase in power of up to 95 hp and an increase in torque of up to about 120 Nm in the Jaguar XJ. For customers who do not want a complete system, the electronics can be optimised to increase performance by around 50 hp and 50 Nm. Pure driving pleasure is guaranteed in combination with the overspeed trip unit.

The dynamic appearance of the Arden AJ 22 is rounded off by the 21" light alloy rims in the exclusive Sportline design which also ensure improved handling.
