Unfortunately no, they folks that traded it didn't take any. I can tell you I delivered the new car to their home and put about 30 miles on the car back to the dealership. It's an impressive automobile to put it mildly.

Teddy you should contact the body shop that did the repair work. They typically take before and after pictures.
As a buyer of many high end cars over the years, I am sure having that information will assist in attaining the highest price you guys can get for the car.

Not too worried about it, I was off today but I got a call to discuss the car with a customer that was there. We may sell it before we can get the pics up. The car is amazing and a bargain in today's market. A 13k mile s63 or 7 series is way more and nowhere near as nice looking. The car is unique enough to draw attention. Anyone that sees it and drives it will know it has never been hurt.

That is a stunner in the matte gray but man it must be murder for a body shop to paint match. Just look at the difference in color/gloss between the driver side front fender and the doors. We are way too susceptible to "love taps" here in NYC for me to ever dream about buying one in this matte finish.

Yes Matte Grey is very distinctive for sure as is the entire car!
A real unicorn.

Interesting,

I've never seen the Ivory leather on a 575 other than those in Velocity Blue (and not all those are Ivory).

Looks great in person, black leather is not super popular in Florida, gets pretty hot. Pics don't really do it justice. Will get more pics in the next day or two.

Yes, but, all light colored seats in the 575 are Ivory.

The whole front clip looks to have the paint variation. Makes me a bit skeptical of the "only a bump".

I have no doubt it is still a really good "go fast" car. My OCD would never handle that paint issue though. Especially at that price tag. (I could have three of the one like I bought).

The Carfax confirms the "little bump" and there isn't a variant on in person, will take some more pics tomorrow in better light. As far as having 3. This car isn't for everyone. I understand. Enjoy your car though. I'm sure it's very nice.

Funny, I'm just the opposite. I like to drive in "S" because I prefer that "go-cart" feel. Or at least Jaguar's definition of go-cart.

So no pics of the damage are available but there for sure has to be an invoice and report from the body shop that repaired the accident damage. Did they give you a copy of that?

Love the ivory interior. I have a '19 Carpathian Grey XJL R 575 with typical black leather. I just LOVE the car but I miss the ivory interior of my previous '17 XJ Sport.

I would love to know numbers sold in Canada, specifically Ontario. I purchased mine "new" in July 2020, built July 2019. I believe the last month of production. The dealer here in Windsor had acquired the last handful of XJ's from Jag Canada. I had signed for an XJ-R Sport to replace my 2017 same model but he brought in 4 XJL-R 575's on the same transport. 2 black, my Carpathian Grey and a bright blue one (which personally I disliked on such a large car). Naturally I had to try one and within 500m knew I had to have it :-) I believed it is quite rare but not aware as rare as it sounds from the numbers mentioned here. If only 200 really went to the US it was likely a fraction of that for Canada. Amazing car. Only concern I have had is multiple check engine lights over 3 years (just got one today) which prior times has been faulty O2 sensor. Warranty is up in 10 months. Really want to keep it but it is a worry. I guess buying that Jag Canada certified extended warranty might be worth the big bucks.

We do tend to get very region-centric in our knowledge and opinions/facts. I believe that only the LWB 575 was offered in the US. I also think that the color palate may have varied by region. In the US I have only seen Satin Grey, Black, White and my own Velocity Blue.

yes sorry did a bit of digging feel stupid on my paperwork its std wheelbase but putting it up next to a portfolio xjl same size in the uk they are just xjr575 no L very big car I'll give it that the colour on mine is storm grey as far as i know in Europe and the UK there's only 104 likely less than that on the road now due to idiots killing them but i hear on the jaguar grape vine that there's less than 400 remaining world wide so not sure how true that is but I do know that there's only 8 I know of 3 round cheshire uk and the rest dotted around likely more about one had a kit upgrade jaguar vrs kit so I would have thought it would be in the double digits rather than the 100s

Questions for 575 owners:
1. Does your car have 575 illuminated door sills?
2. Are your rear side window shades electric or manual?
3. Does anyone have carbon fiber engine cover but Black interior door panel trim?

here is a white 575 that I’ve had my eye on.

Still seems a bit pricey though. Tough car to buy with virtually no warranty left on it.

Prefer the velocity blue personally
I looked into buying this car and had a PPI done on it from Lemon Squad.
The exhaust has been completely hacked. A muffler shop cut the resonators out
The rear mufflers were added and the pipes going to it have been welded and it looks like a 15 year old did the welds.
I wouldn't pay a dime over $63K for it.

1. Yes
2. Electric
3. Carbon/Carbon

To be brutally honest, I didn't know I even had the rear window shades. (Hey, I can't drive it from back there) Just before I put her to bed for the winter my daughter was messing about in the back seat, (she's 9 before anyone gets any ideas) and the blind went up! Something else new to me!
