I like it even more, than my combo of warm charcoal/ivory plus grey stained birds eye maple (which is kinda rare too)
Finally found some pics of the Heritage Tan & Charcoal, but in an STR.

Seems like 2-tone interiors are more rare than Portfolios. Anybody know how many 2-tone interiors were made a year?

Well, nobody at Jaguar can't remember the exact numbers, but they claim that there were less than 2000 of them made from 2004 to 2009.

There is a mention of two other colours for the X350 2005MY in some documents that do not show up in the parts catalogue; Rioja which is a darker red, and Evergreen which is, um green, but very dark.

I don't think they ever built any X350's in these colours, if so they would have to be the rarest and special orders. Evergeen was an option in the first XK8's apparently.

I did find there was an option on non-supercharged Sport models to have a full Heritage Tan seat, not the two-tone contrast, would also have to be rare...

Here are the options from the JEPC;

Comfort Trim, solid colour
(Would be the regular XJ6/XJ8 models, "Executive" in EU)
Champagne SEL
Dove LHJ
Ivory NED
Sand ADX
Warm Charcoal LEG

Sport - Solid colour, non-contrast
(to G34527, i don't think the Sport models was available in the US, XJR spec seats without the R branding)
Cranberry CGT
Dove LHJ
Heritage Tan ADY <<== Hello!
Ivory NED
Warm Charcoal LEG

XJR - solid colour, non-contrast
Cranberry CGT
Champagne SEL
Dove LHJ
Ivory NED
Sand ADX
Warm Charcoal LEG

XJR Contrast Two-Tone &/or Contrast Stitch
Ivory Outer, Warm Charcoal Inner, Warm Charcoal stitch, RFD
Warm Charcoal Outer, Cranberry Inner, Cranberry stitch, RFB
Warm Charcoal Outer, Heritage Tan Inner, Heritage Tan stitch, RFC
Champagne with Warm Charcoal stitch, LJG
Ivory with Warm Charcoal Stitch, LGJ
Warm Charcoal with Cranberry stitch, LEG
Dove with Granite stitch, LHH
Warm Charcoal with Dove stitch, LHN

Concept 8 / Portfolio
Conker leather AMR

Super V8 / VDP / Daimler
Champagne with Mocha piping AMC
Champagne with Warm Charcoal piping LJG
Cranberry with Cranberry piping CGT
Dove with Granite piping LHH
Dove with Dove piping LHJ
Dove with Warm Charcoal piping LEY
Ivory with Ivory piping NED
Ivory with Mocha piping AMD
Ivory with Warm Charcoal piping LGJ
Ivory with Sable piping AES
Ivory with Navy piping RHD
Navy with Champgane piping RHC
Sand with Sand piping ADX
Sand with Sable piping ADZ
Warm Charcoal with Dove piping LHN
Warm Charcoal with Warm Charcoal Piping LEG

Generally speaking, all have plain leather, except for the X358's with cooled front seats which have perforated leather.

Just popped down to the garage and took these quick snaps. I have a platinum XJR with the cranberry interior. Didn't realise that this is an uncommon combination as I think it looks great.

Very nice. Thanks for sharing!

Yes almost every XJ with full Cranberry leather i.e. not two-tone, has been in Ebony or Midnight so Platinum with full Cranberry would be very very very rare...

Only a handfull of Cranberry XJ's out there it seems...

1. VDP amcdonal saw online in 2010 (USA)
2. XJR that was in Springfield MO, 2010 (USA)
3. the "Angelina Jolie" Super V8 in Black (UK)
4. Cambo's '05 XJR in Black (ex-UK)
5. a 3.5L Sport in Black, seen on ebay (UK)
6. tofecali's VDP in Black, (USA)
7. The "Devonshire" XJR in Black (UK)
8. The "Cinque Ports" LWB Sovereign in Black (UK) Jaguar XJ8 V8 Sovereign Lwb for sale in Rye East Sussex | Cinque Ports Motor Company
9. Bobchuwah's XJR in Platinum (UAE)
10. '03 XJ6 Sport in Black "Pace Motors" (UK) Used Car Finance - Find the best deals on Used Cars with Pace Motor Company
11. '06 XJ6 SWB Sovereign in Black MV06FPG (UK) https://www.hafoxjaguar.co.uk/vehicl...06fpg-2425559/
12. '05 XJR in Black with Aluminium Veneer (UK) JAGUAR V8 XJR 350Series 4.2L SUPERCHARGED 420BHP EXCELLENT CONDITION JAGUAR FSH 55Plate FULLY LOADED | United Kingdom | Gumtree

There's no doubt more out there but for sure the Platinum with Cranberry would be extremely rare..

It's not a factory item, probably a beige leather one that's been dyed Cranberry.

Yeah good shout actually, as beige is the only other colour I've been able to find.

The full on Cranberry is amazing the two tone is a little on the "Ghetto" side no offence, I love two tone interiors but not the way the black and red are configured on this. Go with your wife's instinct on this she is right.

Um, this is my car;



This thread has been going so long, I ended up buying one of the cars I posted, nearly three years ago...

Default cranberry Int

My 04 XKR is the only one I have seen with its color combo. I see the one I the earlier post that was identical in design but it appears to a much earlier car, as it didn't have the nav package on it. Also its a right hand drive so its not in the states. What does such a rare color combo do for collectability?

Came across another XJR with Cranberry, in Ukraine https://www.drive2.com/r/jaguar/464120626710315805/



What's odd about this car is that it's got the 4-zone climate, and rear entertainment, but no satnav.... anyhow, the more Cranberry the better!
