Vehicle Description
You can always recognize a Jaguar. Nothing else comes close.
Literally every inch of this XKR is part of a curve.
Beauty is only part of the attraction of an XKR. She is also a
ferocious performer and a rare find. With nearly 400 supercharged
horsepower and 400 ft lb of torque. She is capable of sub 5 second
0 to 60 times and triple-digit quarter mile speeds. All of this is
done while you're wrapped in silky smooth luxury. The interior is a
classy blend of leather, burlwood and English carpet.
Under the hood is a 4.2 litre DOHC 4 valve supercharged V8. This is
backed up by a six-speed automatic and Jaguar's active traction and
suspension control system.
She sits on the very desirable Jaguar / BBS Sepang 20" 3 piece
wheels.
Stopping power is courtesy of massive red Brembo calipers clamping
huge cross-drilled vented rotors.
During the nine years of production Jaguar built 9,660 XKR coupes.
That is barely more than 1,000 cars per year for a worldwide
market. They made several times the number of convertibles as
coupes which creates a situation that is rare in the automotive
world in that the coupe is worth more than its drop-top
sibling.
This is an extremely clean example. It has all of its original
paint and the leather, wood and carpet are all in exceptionally
good condition. Under the hood is also neat, clean and orderly.
If you are looking for a very rare, beautiful and easy to live with
performance car you will be hard-pressed to find a better value in
the under $20,000 market.
