New 2016 Jaguar XF High Wire Drive over The Thames – LIVE on Cars UK at 7pm

The new 2016 Jaguar XF will be revealed in London tonight with a high-wire drive over the Thames in London. Tune in at 7pm UK time to watch.

The all new Jaguar XF began its official tease (although we’d already seen spy shots of the new XF) last week as Jaguar geared up for a launch at the 2015 New York Motor Show.

But the NYIAS isn’t going to be the new XF’s first outing, as that will take place tonight in London as Jaguar drive the XF across high-wires strung across the Thames. And you can watch it live on Cars UK.

Jaguar has enlisted the help of British stuntman Jim Dowdall – a veteran of stunts in Bond films, the Bourne Series and Indiana Jones – to perform a world-first high-wire water crossing in London, with a pair of wires not much more than an inch thick stretched across the Thames near Canary Wharf and the Excel Centre.

We’ve seen Jaguar practising the stunt today with a camouflaged car, but we assume the wraps will come off the new XJ for the stunt itself, when we’ll get the first look at the new XF and its design which we’re expecting is strongly influenced by the new Jaguar XE.

The new Jaguar XF will be on show here – hopefully staying on its high-wire – at 7pm UK time, Tuesday 24 March 2015.

Note: The 2015 Jaguar XF has now been revealed – Check out the new XF details and photos.
