The seller offers for sale a Jaguar XKR Cabriolet from 2001. This cabriolet is powered by a 4.0-litre supercharged V8 petrol engine combined with an automatic transmission. According to the seller, the engine starts without issues, produces no blue or white smoke when warm, and does not make unusual noises. The gearbox shifts smoothly and operates without abnormal sounds. The car has not been involved in an accident and shows no visible rust. The vehicle has been used sparingly in recent months, and a service is recommended, during which attention can be given to an intermittently illuminated engine management light and minor coolant loss. The car is fitted with a neatly installed G3 LPG system, integrated into the spare wheel well, allowing petrol or LPG operation. The interior shows normal signs of use, with wear to the front seat upholstery and a driver’s seat backrest adjustment that does not operate correctly, while climate control, instruments, and most electrical functions work as intended.
As a cabriolet, the Jaguar is equipped with a fabric soft top that is present and functional. The roof shows normal signs of use and benefits from a mechanism that operates properly, with only minor resistance or sound during operation. It needs some attention. No hard top is included.
The Jaguar XKR represents the performance-focused evolution of the XK series, combining classic British styling with modern grand touring comfort. Introduced in the late 1990s, the XKR added a supercharged V8 to deliver effortless power, refined cruising, and a distinctive exhaust note. The cabriolet version enhances the experience with open-top motoring while retaining the elegant proportions and luxurious character Jaguar is known for. Today, the XKR Cabriolet is appreciated as a capable and charismatic GT, offering strong performance, comfort, and timeless design.
