“The XKR “Silverstone” is a celebration not only of Jaguar’s return to racing through Formula One but of our long association with the world famous British circuit, the scene of over twenty Jaguar racing victories. But above all, the XKR “Silverstone”, with its supercharged engine, finely tuned chassis and distinctive style, is a sports car for the true driving enthusiast”.
Jonathan Browning, Jaguar’s Managing Director
The Jaguar XKR Silverstone was also to be given an upgraded chassis and braking system designed by the Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations team (SVO), this included Brembo brakes and sophisticated CATS system (Computer Active Technology Suspension). More noticeable are the superb but enormous 20in diameter BBS “Detroit” wheels with ultra low profile Pirelli PZero tyres. Being ten inches wide at the rear and nine inches wide at the front meant this particular XKR had a menacing stance whilst maintaining the best handling production car of its class. The engine remained the same 370bhp supercharged 4. 0 litre AJ-V8 as in the existing XKR which could accelerate the 0-60 in around 5. 2 seconds.
Jaguar built just 100 models in this Limited Edition package, 50 of each in both coupe and convertible mode. To celebrate the launch Jaguar invited buyers of these cars to the Formula One test day at Silverstone on 13 April 2000. They were given the opportunity of watching the Jaguar F1drivers make their final preparations for the forthcoming Grand Prix. Cost New £74, 000 . A Very Rare and beautiful Jaguar XKR with low mileage , Low ownership and Full History. A Stunning example
