Nope because it's a 2002 it had larger exhaust tips on as standard, I know the earlier models are smaller as my mates 2000 hard top are.

Default Not actually photo
I found the video from google with part of VIN from my car 8-) There are also some small faults/details in interior that match my car. So I'm 99.999% sure this video is from the same car!


Would be great if some previous owner from US would see this! And maybe we could have a small chat about history of the car.

Now car is in Northern Europe with some 24k Miles. And it still is stunning

Looks great.

Have you contacted Autos of Palm Beach to check it is your XKR 100 in the video?

Yes, I used their web form to ask if they still remember something about car. I think it was sold by them around 2011. And after couple of owners it ended up here.

Default Sunny Day, had to be top down :)
Love spending time on this car, takes the stress of the day away when I sit in her. After 6 weeks of owning my 1st Jaguar, just love it.


Have silly issues with her, but worth spending time to resolve, like Alpine Sat Nav a little difficult to manage, and I so want the Star-Tac in phone to work properly, I like the idea of bringing this girl back to her full glory as she left the factory.


Thanks to the forum for all your help and advise

I wish mine had a shadow from the Marbella sun underneath it today instead of the rain running off it.

I assume its some sort of replacement cover for the light? Do they do bat signals too?

Just found how you do it http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_fr...light&_sacat=0

I just dont fancy cutting a hole that size into my door...

Third time edit. The no drill solution. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-2014-6...item35dca3d605
