I'm surprised you still have this Jag. It checks all the right boxes on maintenance. The airfare from Tulsa is 3-400 depending on the travel day. I just need to convince my wife. someone needs to buy this Jag.
Thanks for your comments Nickhand,
If you would share your email with me, I can forward a photo gallery, plus invoices for work completed. Or continue with private messages on Jag Forum.
You should have no issues driving this car from Menifee CA to Oklahoma.
That might help. I can meet you at Ontario Int'l Airport with the car and with my wife as follow-on driver.
As indicated, I have owned Jaguar cars for over 55 years, starting with an XKE. Have had many body styles and usually two or three at one time.
I'm the second owner of this car, and have used it for only about 15,000 miles over nine years of ownership.
Jaguars have been my hobby for many years, have rebuilt XJ6 C engine and XKE engine in my home shop, well informed on Jaguar Cars history.
This car has been serviced by the dealer only because I'm at the point in age where it becomes challenging to do the work.
I believe this Jag to be unique in terms of condition, maintenance and mileage, plus beautiful color combination.
Regards, and Happy Holidays to you and your family,

We live in the desert in a retirement community. Advertised locally but not really in the wheelhouse of car buyers in this area.
Just FYI, the first owner of this car was a woman living in Rancho in a wealthy community. This wasn't her only car, hence very low mileage. I'm second owner.
I'm interested in selling because I'm out of garage space. Still have 2005 Jag Estate Wagon X Type, and 2001 XK8 convertible in Roman Bronze w/tan top.
Very hard decision as to which one to offer. My wife made the decision for me.
I can get by the wheels. I would think a set from a salvage yard could be found for a reasonable price. I just cannot get by my wife she is not being reasonable about this good-looking Jag.

I’ll let you know if my 2002 XKR is ever for sale. No airfare needed as I’m only 50 miles north of Tulsa in Bartlesville .
But don’t hold your breath, it’s my daily driver and still has plenty of life left in it @ only 193,000 miles and counting.
Thanks ZRay
Currently interested in selling two of my three Jaguars: 2000 XK8 Coupe ( Phoenix Red), 2001 XK8 Convertible (Roman Bronze) or 2005 X Type Estate Wagon (BRG),
Reason: retired and moving to senior facility.
Will keep one for daily driving.
Let me know if any one of the cars is interesting to you.
By the way, your pics are great!
Regards,
