The Appeal
Smooth, comfortable and quick, there are good reasons why the X100 XK is currently one of classic motoring’s most popular purchases. If you want to stand out from the XK crowd, here’s the perfect opportunity.
This 4litre, 400bhp XKR convertible is fitted with the distinctive Arden Sports pack, that adds neatly integrated skirts and spoilers and big wheels that pump up the svelte aesthetics of Jaguar’s big GT. But it is much more than a cosmetic makeover - Arden also lowered the suspension via a set up that can be easily electrically adjusted from the driver’s seat.
The appeal of this distinctive car doesn’t end there. Its three registered keepers have kept on top of the servicing and maintenance, confirmed by a run of 20 stamps from new. All work has been done by Jaguar main dealers and well regarded marque specialists. It was serviced at 89,202 miles in February 2024.
A long MOT to March 2025 underlines the sense of a well cared for and solid car. There are some minor cosmetic areas the buyer may wish to consider, but none require urgent work. Instead, this is a car to jump in and enjoy as the warmer weather plays to its strengths.
