SUMMARY
A low ownership, low mileage Supercharged XKR immaculately presented and correctly maintained - Offered Without Reserve.
DESCRIPTION
Offered here is a supercharged Jaguar XKR that was supplied new to the UK and first registered in December 2006. It was thoughtfully specified in Platinum Silver Metallic with an Ivory extended-leather interior, a timeless colour combination that suits the profile of the XKR perfectly. Since delivery in 2006, the Jaguar has had just two previous keepers and the speedometer indicated only 38,414 miles at the time of cataloguing.
The condition of this example can only be described as remarkable, and belies the mileage shown on the speedometer. The paintwork gleams across the entire bodywork, the panel gaps are uniform and all trim presents beautifully. The interior shows only minimal wear including the driver’s seat, and the cabin feels clean and fresh. In fact it’s a fabulous place to be. The car has formed part of a private collection for the last five years and has been dry stored correctly in a humidity and temperature-controlled storage facility. The large alloy wheels are immaculate, and the brake calipers also present well, peeping through the alloy spokes. On test, the supercharged V8 fired into life on-the-button, sounding keen and healthy, and on the road the car felt well planted, swift, comfortable and purposeful.
Accompanying the Jaguar is a history file that contains the original Jaguar book-pack with a fully-stamped service book showing 13 stamps, all from Jaguar main agents, with paper invoices to support, the most recent being March 2022 at 38,792 miles. The file also contains old MOT Certificates to help corroborate the indicated mileage and the current V5C is ready for transfer or export. The appropriate registration number, M444 XKR, does form part of the sale and will remain on the car.
Undoubtedly the best example currently available, presented in classic colours with unquestionable provenance, sensible mileage and relatively low ownership. This is a modern classic Jaguar with design cues from the iconic Jaguar E-Type and fitted with a glorious supercharged power unit – rare to find in such lovely order.
