The wonderful thing about premium cars is that you really can spend as much as you feel like to make it feel like you’ve spent a lot.

The HSE version of the E-Pace really allows you to let your hair down and spend up big on your Jaguar, with the prices jumping by around $5000 over the SE range, or a whopping $10K over the genuinely quite well-specced S.

That means a base D150 (and why are you cheaping out on the engine when you’re willing to spend this much) is $65,590, the D240 go-fast diesel is $74,410 and the P300 petrol tops out at $77,493.

This is quite serious money for a small SUV, and on top of all the goodies you already got for an SE, the HSE spec adds very serious 20-inch five-spoke wheels, gesture control to your powered tailgate and keyless entry (how very high end).

Your leather is now of the perforated 'Windsor' style, and noticeably nicer it is too, and the front seats are now 18-way adjustable. Only your spec level gets the 12.3-inch 'Interactive Driver Display'.

Stephen Corby stumbled into writing about cars after being knocked off the motorcycle he’d been writing about by a mob of angry and malicious kangaroos. Or that’s what he says, anyway. Back in the early 1990s, Stephen was working at The Canberra Times, writing about everything from politics to exciting Canberra night life, but for fun he wrote about motorcycles. After crashing a bike he’d borrowed, he made up a colourful series of excuses, which got the attention of the motoring editor, who went on to encourage him to write about cars instead. The rest, as they say, is his story. Reviewing and occasionally poo-pooing cars has taken him around the world and into such unexpected jobs as editing TopGear Australia magazine and then the very venerable Wheels magazine, albeit briefly. When that mag moved to Melbourne and Stephen refused to leave Sydney he became a freelancer, and has stayed that way ever since, which allows him to contribute, happily, to CarsGuide.
