Program: Jaguar, Land Rover, Rolls-Royce and Bentley tuning.

Founded in 1972, Arden has been involved in vi­sual and mechanical Jaguar tuning since 1982 as well as Land Rover, Rolls-Royce and Bentley ve­hicles since 1998. The standard model is an A-T-ype coupe based on the Jaguar XKR, launched in 1999 and with a V8 4.0-liter 460 hp (top speed of 320 km/h; 0-100 km/h in 4.9 s). The 2003 Frank­furt/Main Motor Show witnessed the debut of the Lightweight RS (on the basis of the Jaguar XKR, V8 4.5-liter 500 hp) as well as tuned versions of the new Range Rover (V8 4.8-liter 350 hp, 225 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 7.3 s) and the following Jaguar mo­dels: the new XJ (4.5-liter 380-480 hp) and S-Type R (V8 4.2-liter 440 hp, 275 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 5.2 s). In 2004 Arden presented its own versions of the S-Type Diesel (2.7-liter 207 hp), X-Type Esta­te (V6 2.5-liter 156 hp) and XJS (based on the XJR, V8 4.2-liter 455 hp), and in Essen in the same year a new A-Type Lightweight RS (V8 4.5-liter 540 hp, 323 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 4.4 s) and XJR AJ 14 (455 hp).
