The Appeal
The X100 was created to restore Jaguar to the fast-moving, diminutive sports cars that brought the likes of the E-type, re-envisioning that iconic silhouette and performance for the rapidly approaching millennium. To this day, it's become one of the best-reputed modern classics out there, and still garners plenty of well-deserved admiration.
This particular 1998 example presents in metallic blue with cream leather interior, a timeless and sophisticated colour combination. Having benefited from the crucial timing chain tensioner modification and a comprehensive service to both engine and gearbox, this Italian market XKR offers its next owner both performance and peace of mind.
