X-Type

Based on the Ford Mondeo, this was Jaguar's smallest saloon, created to compete with the 3-Series. It was FWD because neither Jag nor Ford had a suitable RWD platform to build it on.
Available as a saloon or an estate, with FWD or AWD, buyers could be had with a 2.1-, 2.5- or 3.0-litre six-cylinder petrol or a 2.0- or 2.2-litre four-cylinder turbocharged diesel, with either five- or six-speed manual or automatic gearboxes, the 5-speed variant of the latter having a "J-Gate"-type gear selection movement.

The model was discontinued in 2009, enjoying an eight year production run.

Jaaag

The sort of person who would go away for a weekend with his wife to a hotel somewhere romantic and spend the entire night flirting outrageously with a waitress and it's OK because he's got a Jaaag.

A7

A slightly more practical A6 from Audi to rival the Mercedes-Benz CLS. A 5-door hatchback (liftback), available with 2.8- (204PS) and 3.0-litre (300PS) six-cylinder petrol engines (the latter being supercharged) and a 3.0-litre six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine in three states of tune (204PS, 245PS and 315PS), with the most powerful engine having two turbochargers for extra oomph.

A high-performance variant - the S7 - is equipped with a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged eight-cylinder petrol engine; the same engine in fact, as the second generation Bentley Continental GT.
"Is that a CLS over there?"
"Nope. It's an Audi A7."
"Really? they look similar in profile."
