The Appeal
It took over two decades, but this was it - the successor to the E-type. The XKR had it all, on paper - evocative, nostalgic styling combined with a fabulous cabin and a strong turn of speed. This new curvaceous GT really did feel like a smashing return to form for the Coventry factory, and has become one of the best-reputed Jags of the 21st century.
They've become an exceptional modern classic - perhaps one of the most eminently enjoyable out there - and continues to seduce generation after generation of enthusiast. Is it little wonder they're still clamoured for? The brand image of modern Jaguar may have taken a shaking lately, but the glory days are a perfect fit for the zeitgeist.
This 2003 example has been in its current ownership for nearly seven years, and has clearly been a prized possession for the vendor. It boasts a beguiling, best-of-British colour scheme, a set of impressive Jaguar two-part alloys and a valid MOT until August 2025. The underside has been diligently coated and we understand the car to be ready and waiting to drive away.
