The Appeal
The XJR is something a bit special in the Jaguar lineup, with its 4.0 supercharged engine and firm suspension it offers the performance of a sports car, yet has the elegance and refinement of a luxury car suitable for the most discerning of motorists.
The X308 XJR is 25 years old this year, but make no mistake, this is a car that can still show a clean pair of heels to a modern performance car. It is an animal.

This XJR is finished in Sapphire Blue, boasting a very modest 31,000 miles on the clock, looks fantastic and goes even better! If you’re looking for a car that provides an exceptional level of luxury, but that can also kick out the back end on a corner (and who isn’t?) then this is the car for you.
The History and Paperwork

- MOT until December
- Original vehicle handover document
- Historical MOTs from July 2002 until present documenting and verifying the mileage
- Fully stamped service history from new until November 2019 at 28,651 miles
The Interior
- Fully original interior
- Excellent condition throughout
- A very high level of luxury reflected in every piece of trim
The interior of the XJR is amongst the best Jaguar have produced, both the quality and luxury shows in every choice of material, every piece of design and in the finish. Of course the interior shows some design features that indicate the performance of the car; raised seat bolsters and the low seating position give you some clues as to what awaits when you put your foot down. However the design is primarily one of luxury, whilst the seats will hold you in during more spirited cornering they are supremely comfortable and the extensive wooden trim is almost opulent.
This XJR has been extremely well cared for and as such the interior is that of a much younger car. Everything works and the condition of the upholstery, headlining, dash and instruments is excellent.
