2005 Jaguar XKR-S Convertible - 16,380 miles - Exceptional For Sale

The X100 model of Jaguar XK was launched in 1996. It was a departure from the dated XJ-S with new alloy V8 engines and blistering performance from the supercharged XKR. 2002 saw a revision with increased displacement from 4. 0 to 4. 2 and a new 6 speed gearbox. Power for the supercharged XKR rose to 400 BHP. This 2005 XKR-S was the culmination of years of development and some special features were added including Brembo brakes, a lowered ride height, carbon fibre trim, special 20" BBS wheels and the removal of the speed limited giving a 174 MPH top speed. A very special car indeed and one of just 200 made.

This exceptional example is finished in Satin Silver metallic with black leather complemented by white stitching. With just 16, 380 miles on the clock the condition is exceptional both inside and out. The underside is in fantastic condition, a real time warp example. Supplied new by Hartwell Jaguar in Bristol the car went to its first owner on the Isle of Man in June of 2005. It was used for trips to Portugal and was serviced by the Jaguar dealer in Faro at 4, 484 miles, 6, 000 miles, 12, 568 miles and 14, 104 miles. It returned to the UK in 2014 and was serviced by H A Fox in Norwich at 16, 023. It was then purchased by a good customer of mine and put into his private collection in a heated garage along with several other Jaguars. The result is this exceptional example that looks like a 12 month old car! If you are after the best then this is worth your attention.
