I've always liked these as well. There always a few for sale near me but they're either trashed or have very high mileage. The good ones are pricey.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And some beholders are just plain nuts!

Nice ride though.

Simply stunning.
Frankly speaking, I am no fan of dark interiors, but this one looks sooooooo good, hope it finds an other good owner soon.

I agree Eric, fabulous looking, if I can complete and unload my Corvette quick enough, I'd seriously consider snagging it. He' probably just down the street from me.... Hey Paul, what side of town are you in?....I'm on the East side off Curry Ford by the 417.

That XJR 100 is beautiful! I'm just starting out on a refurb of one I bought and hope it looks as good as that one day.

One question though, I notice there isn't a line painted down the side but mine has a light coloured one. Did that come as standard or is it optional? I ask because I'll probably need a full respray and want to get it done right.

Thanks for posting the pics.

This is my first Jag, not a great photo but the only one I have. It was waaay before smartphones! I think the XK8 flute wheels really set it off too but I guess there will be different opinions on that.

It broke my heart to sell this car, I sold it to buy my engagement ring!

Some came with the coachline/pinstripe some didn't, it was down to the initial owners preference.
They were all hand painted in the SVO shop, along with the 100 trim fitted. All coachlines were the red option, if yours is light coloured I'd like to see what you mean.

Paint code is PED Anthracite pearl. ICI paint scheme. If you need any info on the 100's I can help.

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you like it!
What do you people think of my Jag?
Got the OEM XJR grille!
Red wheel logos and new exhaust tips.
Was challenging to find great ones, but I believe those big ovals fit perfectly.
