2008 Jaguar XJR

Highlights

  • Last major service at 52,498 miles by a local independent specialist
  • Previously maintained under a Jaguar main dealer contract
  • Current ownership since July 2015
  • Always garaged and dust-covered in present ownership
  • Special registration included along with original number plates

The Appeal

Handsome, innovative and with impressive levels of performance, the XJR has become a highly prized piece of Jaguar's back catalogue. Still loaded with classical styling, and carrying plenty of creature comforts, it's of little surprise that they're now so clamoured for, with that 4.2L V8 powerplant garnering plenty of rightful admiration. 
This particular 2008 Supercharged XJR has been meticulously maintained, with a comprehensive service history that includes recent major services and new parts. The vehicle has been in its current ownership since 2015 and comes complete with its cherished licence plate. With no advisories on the most recent MOT and a commendably low mileage, this is a great opportunity for any enthusiast to take on a highly-prized 'Big Cat'.
