Default Stype 3.0 To Stype R

I got an 05 S type 3.0 with 20000 miles as a graduation present. I want to know if its possible for me to put the Stype R engine in it. I really love the car as it is and don't want to sell it and buy an R. I also wanted to know if I could add factory navigation in it. See if you guys can help me ou. Thanks

In reality, no. Way too many other changes also needed.

For nav see existing very detailed threads.

So you think its impossible or possible to a certain extent or its better to sell it and buy another one. And the navigation is possible right.

Sell and re-buy. The cost will be astronomical to convert to an R.

Sell it, and buy an R in the color your like and equipment (nav) you want,

There is so much more to an R car than just the motor!

You can, all the info is here https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...ed-pics-77246/ and here Retrofitting touch screen sat nav controls

I'd have a serious look at aftermarket if it was me.
