Jaguar's flagship supercharged grand tourer; showing just 43,719
miles; rare specification and presented in imressive condition; single
family ownership for the last 10 years; new Kumho tyres all round; 4.2
litre supercharged V8 420BHP
Introduced in 2006,
the X150-generation Jaguar XKR marked a significant evolution of Jaguar’s
performance grand tourer, combining a lightweight aluminium body with the
effortless performance of a supercharged 4.2-litre V8. Producing 420bhp and
capable of 0-60mph in sub five seconds, the XKR offered serious pace while
retaining the refinement and elegance expected of a Jaguar. Available in both
coupé and convertible forms, the X150 remains a highly appealing combination of
British style, V8 performance and long-distance usability.
Manufactured in 2007, this X150-generation XKR Convertible is
presented in excellent condition, having covered just 43,719 miles and enjoyed
the last ten years within the same family. The car benefits from a comprehensive
service history, with seven stamps in total, numerous from Jaguar or recognised
specialists. Most recently serviced at 42,816 miles, it has covered less than
1,000 miles since.
Costing a substantial £76,277
when new, this XKR represents a particularly well-specified example of Jaguar’s
flagship performance convertible, combining low mileage and excellent
presentation with a highly desirable factory specification.
The car is finished in ‘Frost Blue’ metallic over Ivory leather, a
particularly elegant and timeless combination complemented by aluminium interior
trim and a dark blue hood, which operates as it should. Together, the colour
combination and specification suit the XKR wonderfully, giving it a suitably
understated yet distinctive appearance.
Both the
paintwork and interior present in excellent condition, with no major
imperfections to note, suggesting that this has been a genuinely cherished
example. The alloy wheels are also in very good order and are shod in near-new
Kumho tyres all round. Of the car’s five previous keepers, the last three have
all been members of the same family, with the car effectively being passed down
through the generations.
Driven to the sale and
starting, running and driving around site as expected, this XKR presents a
particularly appealing opportunity to acquire a low-mileage and beautifully
specified example of Jaguar’s supercharged V8 flagship. With its impressive
original specification, excellent presentation, strong service history and
genuine family provenance, this is an XKR that should prove difficult to
overlook.
