Description
Jaguar XKR which has the benefit of the improved 4. 2 litre engine that was made available for the 2003 model year which was launched mid 2002 and a big improvement over the previous 4. 0 engine. With just over 54, 000 miles recorded this car is finished in the sought after colour scheme of Midnight Black metallic paintwork and Warm Charcoal interior with Birds Eye Maple Veneers. When purchased new this car was sent to the Arden Styling House and at great expense it received upgrades including lowered sports suspension, revised nose cone, side skirts, deeper rear valance, revised tail light treatment, big bore sports exhaust, body colour fibreglass tonneau cover, aluminium air intake.
This highly specified car was ordered with: Interior Compass, Premium Sound System, Recaro Sport Seats, Air Particle Filter, Heated Front Windscreen, R Leather Steering Wheel, Aluminium Pedals and Instruments and Satellite Navigation. The standard car was also equipped with: Headlamp Powerwash, Xenon Headlights, Drivers and Front passenger Electrically Adjustable Heated Seats with Driver Memory, CATs Adaptive Damping, Cruise Control, CD Auto-changer, Power-fold Mirrors and a fitted in-car telephone which is still present in the centre console.
I searched long and hard to find what I truly believe to be one of the best examples of this model available, this car is not to be confused with the run of the mill examples available on the market. A real head turner and a regular prize winner at car shows, a testament to how special this car is comes from the attention it recieves from other XKR owners. The Jaguar Service Record is present with the car and shows Main Dealer services recorded at: 7, 000 miles; 18, 000 miles; 25, 000 miles; 32, 200 miles; 36, 250 miles; 41, 200 miles; 43, 800 miles. From 2014 to date there have only been a handful of miles added to the car but nonetheless services have been carried out regularly by a specialist garage. The current MOT expires in July 2025 but the car will be sold with a new test certificate for a full year.
