Rumor has it....

That Jaguar will be putting a diesel in it's S-Type auto. Don't know who will mfg. the diesel but it will be too rich for my blood.........and it probably will still leak oil.

Over here they are already selling the diesel Jaguars. Rather quick car.
(But nothing compared to the BMW 535D - twin turbo 3.0l I6 DI diesel)
Very british regarding oil leaks etc.

I think Ford's reputation on the 6.0 will keep them outta the market for a V-6 diesel. They've lost the touch (if in your opinion they ever had "the touch") and I'm sure quite a few followers.
