The XK8 was launched in 1996 to replace the XJ-S. Two body styles were produced, a coupé and a convertible and the car was the first in the Jaguar line-up to use Jaguar's newly developed V8 engine. Introduced at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show, the second-generation Jaguar XK range (codenamed X150) was styled by Ian Callum. Deliberately evoking the E-Type via its oval grille, ‘speeding teardrop’ glasshouse and muscular haunches, the newcomer featured bonded / riveted aluminium construction, all-round independent suspension, power steering and four-wheel disc brakes. The range-topping XKR variant was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.9 seconds and 155mph.
The standard fit six-speed automatic transmission could either be left to its own devices or made to swap cogs by the steering wheel-mounted paddle shifts. A rival to the Porsche 911 and Mercedes-Benz SL, the Jaguar XK / XKR remained in production until 2014 by which time a mere 54,000 had been sold compared to 212,704 Porsche 997s and 169,443 Mercedes-Benz R230s.
First registered 22nd May 2007, this stunning red 4.2 litre Supercharged XKR boasts one of the best modern-day powerplants, just three former keepers from new and a fabulous specification. The interior trim is cream leather with a contrasting black hood, figure-hugging comfort electric seats and wood veneer round of the classical look that and XK provides whilst accelerating to 60mph in under five seconds in comfort. The stamped service booklet shows the first five stamps all from main dealers before two further service invoices from Stratstone JLR with the last at 38,440 miles.
In the history file are various other invoices, MoT test certificates including a current MoT test certificate valid until April 2027. These are wonderful gentleman/lady cruisers which with the supercharged engine are capable of incredible performance and with a low mileage of just 41,300 and low ownership coupled to a good service history; this car is incredible value.
