My 2007 XJR with every option offered, 100% original 97K miles
This has to be the best car I have ever owned. The paint is without flaw, has all options, 97K miles. I am the second owner and it sits out in the sun all year long in Palm Springs and still has not defects in the paint. No dried out leather or even any wrinkles. I am telling you this car is the best car ever built!!!!!

Just bought an '07 sister ship, though green (JRG?) exterior. 88K mi. $11K
Only discernable interior wear is dr door pull. Believe I may redye with Leathertique
Took my church friends to lunch yesterday. They all thought it was a new car
Drives great, though I'm guessung ~$2K in maint and repairs to bring it up to snuff (eg, coolant tank, trans pan/filter, fluids, plugs, trim bits)
Love the looks of the X350 XJR...

Yes, you are right, my car doesn't have those two items (which if I had ordered it I wouldn't have bought them anyway) as for the rear console, I believe that was Portfolio only. I do however have Jag voice, have updated to the latest Bluetooth module, factory Sirus radio, Wood and leather wheel, BBS two piece 20" factory wheels , Audio Connectivity/USB/Audio/Video inputs, leather bound mats with contrasting stitching and Logo and compass in the mirror. Quite a long list of extras. I opted for an 07 because I find the X358 to be a very odd looking car, it looks very fat all over. The only thing I would have loved would have been the side ports, but you can keep the rest of the car. The X358 wasn't well received.

Another rare option are the rear picnic tables and rear memory seats. You can see the whole brochure of options for the x350 here:
Jag-lovers brochures - the 2004 XJ8 [X350] and LWB option choices brochure
I am quite partial to the X350, but love the X358 facelift shape too, I have owned them both and like them in different ways.
The rear console is not specific to the Portfolio, I have fitted the split rear electric seats with console to mine from a 06 Super V8.

You could not have that option of the split seat on a XJR or the picnic tables. That was reserved for the VDP or the Super V8 or Portfolio models. If I could buy a 2009 X358 and put on the front and rear bumpers and grille, then for me, it would be the most perfect XJR made in the all aluminium body style. I just am not a fan of the revisions. The car looks over sized in every way. Since 2002 I have owned 3 XJR's but this used one is the last one, I will ever own. Again, I'm not a fan of the new design language. The red was my first brand new one in 2002 and the green one was a one off car built for the Auto Show and it toured the world before I was able to buy it from a Jaguar executive. They never offered the XJR in this color and as being a show car, it did come with every option offered. The red optioned the same but I wanted the wheels that came on the car and I had them chromed..
