While awarding the top gong to Jaguar's Ian Callum, 'Top Gear' magazine editor, Michael Harvey said: "We feel justified in handing our big one to the fabulous XK, a car everyone now recognises as magnificently beautiful, that reclaims the lost role of the Grand Tourer and, we suspect, might reclaim the art of ride/handling compromise in the portfolio of skills any purveyor of so-called luxury cars must possess."
