Styled by Jaguar's Chief Designer, Ian Callum, the second generation arrived for 2006 and underwent a further facelift for 2009, a move that coincided with introduction of a new 5.0-litre V8 engine and new ZF automatic transmission. A higher performance variant, the XKR-S, debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in 2012. The 'S' gained an extra 40 horsepower over the regular XKR and now produced a mighty 542bhp (same as the Jaguar XJ220 supercar); the 0-60mph time dropping to 4.4 seconds while the top speed was now limited to a more generous 186mph (300km/h).
Explaining the design philosophy behind the XKR-S, Callum said: "The styling of this car isn't about image, it's about performance. Like other iconic Jaguars before it, the styling has been driven by geometry and aerodynamics for genuine design purity. The physics to achieve 300kph have led the aesthetic, if you don't like the way it looks, you probably won't like the way it drives either."
One of only 394 delivered worldwide between model years 2012 and 2015, this particular XKR-S convertible was designed specifically for Ian Callum and used as his daily driver in 2012. While at Jaguar, Callum was also responsible for the XF, later XJ, F-Type, XE, F-Pace and I-Pace. His earlier credits include the Aston Martin DB7 and Vanquish among many others. The bespoke red leather interior was designed specifically for Ian Callum's XKR-S, which is the only car completed with this trim.
This car has travelled far and wide, residing in Monaco with the previous owner and spending time in Scotland and Sussex. It is also a regular attendee at the Jaguar Forums Great British Day Out at Denbies Wine Estate, Surrey.
