Description
Jaguar XKR 4.2 Supercharged • R Performance Pack • 20” BBS Detroit’s •
Metallic Midnight-Blue/ Black with Ivory leather.
Comprehensive history, and many of the expensive X100 jobs already done.
138k miles but mechanically far stronger than many lower mileage cars. In many cases an XKR that has been driven regularly and well serviced generally fares better than the weekend car.
Comes with the desirable private registration S7 XKC (XK Coupé), included in the sale.
A properly sorted XKR that drives exactly as it should. Current owner 8+ years.
Reasons for a very reluctant sale are age related health issues.
Additional Spec & Highlights
In 2004 with a new price of around £60,000 the R performance pack was a very rare option at £5,900, featuring factory uprated, Brembo brakes, lowered CATS active suspension and trim changes.
• New headlining
• 4 months mot to 28 June; no advisories.
• HPI clear
• 2 Keys and original handbook, tools, radio code, CD changer
• Aircon
• Comprehensive 2 stage factory alarm system
Major Mechanical Work Done
This is where the car stands out:
• Supercharger rebuilt
• Front suspension rebuilt
• Brakes rebuilt, including recent new Brembo rear pads.
• Gearbox overhauled at 106k, Complete exhaust 2023.
• The usual X100 welding points repaired (sills, jacking points, rear chassis ends above the suspension mountings. etc.)
• Good tyres all round (see photos) Dunlop Sport MAXX
• Heater pump rebuilt; a very common item to fail from 60,000 miles on, or lack of use on a low mileage older vehicle. This is an expensive replacement being located on top of the gearbox under the transmission tunnel.
These are the big ticket items that separate a good XKR from a money pit — all done.
Condition
Presents well for its age. Straight body, Interior exceptional with no tired trim, and the new headlining lifts the cabin nicely.
Rear arches have light bubbling (new arches professionally fitted 5 years ago) (photos)
Other equipment
6 speed Auto, Cruise control, 5 way electrically adjustable heated seats, headlamp wash, rain sensor, easy entry system, door deadlocks.
Declared actual Faults
Rear lamp warning light fault shows (lamps work correctly)
Doesn't affect drivability or MOT, just a typical X100 niggle.
Aircon needs a recharge.
One foglamp missing, broken by a stone.
Why This Car
The X100 XKR is now firmly in modern classic territory.
R Performance Pack cars with Detroit’s and major mechanicals sorted are getting harder to find.
The private plate S7 XKC suits the car perfectly and adds value.
This one has been maintained with the right attitude: fix it properly, not cheaply.
Viewing
Car was SORN and uninsured directly before purchasing a replacement vehicle, so it cannot be driven on the road.
Full static viewing available — you can see it start, hear it run, check gearbox engagement, and inspect the vehicle. On site inspection, by appointment, welcomed. Location; Chesterfield, Derbyshire
Price
Included private plate S7 XKC. Realistically priced for a quick sale.
Remember due to reg. date this vehicle falls into the lower tax group, £430 not £735.
Experience from low speed the instant blistering acceleration and the spine chilling scream from the supercharger if you are brave enough to open the throttle wide. Pure adrenalin.
