Just read this from the following link:

http://www.fantasycars.com/1/2001/Jaguar21st/jaguar21st.html

Here's the excerpt:

When in makes its debut in late 2003, the X-Type R will be powered by a substantially re-engineered, supercharged version of the 3.0L AJ-V6, which will provide 330hp and 330lb-ft of twist. The R also picks up an extra gear over its lesser sibling for a total of 6, in both manual and automatic guises. The suspension, brakes, wheels, and tires will also receive upgrades, while the interior will be furnished with green suede trim, red instruments and brushed aluminium across the dash. Not to be outdone by the BMW M3 and Mercedes C32 AMG, the X-Type R will likely reach 60mph in 5 seconds and a top speed of 160mph, while still remaining reasonably affordable at approx. 35,000 GBP.

Hopefully this isn't based on rumor...
