Description

Welcome to my 2003 XKR; this is the half-facelift version - it has the updated 4. 2 engine and 6 speed ZF gearbox, but came before the full set of styling changes seen in 2004/ 5. A bit of a sweet spot, I feel, as the earlier styling is a little more elegant. Current mileage is around 69750, this will increase a little as the car is in use. Whoever ordered this car new must have selected an 'all of the above' box on the options list, as it has everything: - Radar cruise-control/ forward alert - 20' Detroit alloys (in perfect condition - no kerb marks on any of them) - HID (xenon) headlights, auto height-adjusting and come on automatically - Electrically-adjustable seats - Full leather interior - Recaro sports seats (more on that later) - Electric folding mirrors - Spacesaver spare wheel The interior is of the 3 dial layout rather than built-in satnav, so has aged well. All electrics work without fault, and the air-conditioning is very effective. An aftermarket head unit fitted by the previous owner pops out and up to provide a satnav screen, which is Android/ Apple compatible (see pictures). I think it's also hands-free integrated and can do lots of other things, but I'm not very tech-minded with cars so can only speak for the navigation and stereo bit. Aside from stainless exhaust/sports cats, the only non-standard aspect of the car is a mod called RealGauge, by JagWrangler. This system means that the temperature and oil pressure gauges show actual live data instead of the three position 'dumb gauge' setup which Jaguar coded them for; it's easily-reversible should a fully-standard setup be preferable. Personalised registration included. Recent maintenance (invoices available to send, if you'd like): August 2026: new hand brake shoes November 2025: major service, new rear tyres, pulleys and belts, chest plate seal, refresh of coolant system, replacement of the thermostat and housing, replacement of front lower suspension arms; £4436 in total July-September 2025: full gearbox rebuild (also over £4k), including the Mechatronic system and oil cooler. £4622 in total. The previous owner addressed all of the usual rust areas, and had rust protection professionally applied; also did extensive mechanical work (over £20k, in total). I had the underside of the car cleaned and checked for new rust in March 2026 (see pictures), with none being present. The car has never had an MOT fail or advisory for rust - highly unusual, for an X100.
