Introduced at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show, the second-generation Jaguar XK range was styled by Ian Callum. Deliberately evoking the E-Type with its oval grille, ‘speeding teardrop’ glasshouse and muscular haunches, the newcomer featured bonded and riveted aluminium construction, all-round independent suspension, power steering and four-wheel disc brakes. Powered by a supercharged five-litre V8 engine developing some 510bhp and 413lb. ft. of torque, the range-topping XKR variant was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4. 6 seconds and 155mph. The standard fit six-speed automatic transmission could either be left to its own devices or made to swap cogs by the steering wheel-mounted paddle shifts. The X150-type Jaguar XK and XKR remained in production until 2014, by which time 54, 000 had been sold.
This XKR is beautifully presented in what we think is one of the loveliest colour schemes Jaguar offered, though it is by no means common—Kyanite Blue with an Ivory leather interior. It’s an extremely summery car, and there’s still time to squeeze in a last-minute holiday to the French Riviera before the best of summer is past… It also happens to be in very good order, thanks to the fact that it is has had just one very sympathetic former keeper and has covered only 67, 000 miles from new. It has been properly maintained throughout that time with services at appropriate intervals, the most recent having taken place at 66, 308 miles in February, 2026.
The excellent state of the paint and interior may be seen from the photographs, but the soft top was starting to get worn out, so an entirely new one was fitted in 2025. The MOT history provides further evidence of the level of use and upkeep that the Jaguar has received, and the current certificate is valid until February, 2027. With such a car as this, we anticipate many happy summers of motoring.
