Arden, an established tuner with 30 years notched on its belt, chose the new model of Jaguar XJ series as one of its projects. The undertaking has the code name AJ22 and is based on the 2010 Jaguar XJ, which was actually presented at the most recent IAA in Frankfurt.

The AJ22 package seeks to enhance the aerodynamics of the car and to do this, Arden put in front and rear apron and side skirts an rear spoiler. In addition, Arden offers a 4-pipe stainless steel custom exhaust system with high-performance catalytic converters to raise the performance of the engine. As a result, the car has a deep sound and even more horse powers. The company also offers exclusive Arden Sportline wheels with dimensions 10Jx21″ fitted with high performance tires optimizing the handling and grip. Arden , which started in 1972, combines handcraftsmanship and tradition with future technologies. The Arden ’s headquarters is in Krefeld, Germany. Photo after the jump!

German tuner Arden does the unimaginable — it further improved the performance of the 2010 Jaguar XKR Convertible. Arden specialists raised the performance of the new 5.0-liter supercharged V8 that gains 30 horsepower and 50 Nm of torque for a total output of 540 horsepower and 675 Nm (498 lb-ft).

Other modifications under the hood include a sport suspension with new shocks and the removal of the electronic speed limiter. The XKR Convertible’s front grille and air-intakes are covered with handmade, chrome-plated stainless steel grilles. At the rear, there’s a new diffuser that houses the tail pipes of the new sport exhaust system. As a rule, it’s not an Arden model if it doesn’t have flashy wheels. The 2010 Jaguar XKR Convertible sports a new set of 21-inch Sportline alloys. Photo gallery after the jump!

The tuning specialist Arden Engineering came out with a specially prepped privateer Mini Cooper S which won the British Touring Car Championship 40 years ago. Today, Arden is commemorating that event with an extensively upgraded special edition Mini Equipe which receives a bespoke two-tone leather upholstery theme across the interior along with the dashboard and doors.

From the front to the back the car is embellished with hand-stitched casings and handcrafted stainless steel and chrome elements, plus a newly designed grill. Aside from these superficial upgrades, the car also gets 18×8inch aluminum alloy wheels, weighing 15 pounds each, are placed on each corner, and it also comes with an enhanced ECU that takes advantage of the latest intercooler and completely stainless steel exhaust that is equipped with racing-type catalytic converters. Because of this, the car comes with an extra 40hp (30kW) and 37lb-ft (50Nm) of torque over the regular model. With a special Arden suspension and lowering springs capable of lowering ride height up to 30mm, the handling of the Equipe is also improved. Stopping power is provided by six-piston brakes for the front rotors for precise braking action. These entire upgrades combine together to bring out the most high-end Mini Cooper S until today. The Arden Mini Equipe is Arden’s second custom Mini Cooper and currently offered by special order. Photo gallery after the jump!
