The Appeal

The X308 XJR was created with one purpose in mind: to beat the M5. Where the BMW was clinical, the Jag was characterful, including its brutal V8 with its distinctive supercharged whine.

So drivable are these cars that it is surprise to find a XJR like this one. It has covered a mere 16,000 miles from new. The result is a car that is in remarkable ‘timewarp’ condition, the British Racing Green bodywork and Oatmeal leather interior showing barely any signs of use.

The car has recently arrived in the UK. We are told it has full service history, including a recent service. The MOT runs to August 2025 with no advisories.

This is a remarkable find for enthusiasts of super saloons. As a LHD example it would be perfect for blasting across Europe on a road trip, to a holiday home or a classic venue like Le Mans or Spa.
