I have an 02 XJR 4dr US model.
Black on black. 65k miles nice vehicle maintained by British and German Vehicle Mechanic.
Some stone chips up front otherwise excellent body. Clean interior no damage clean engine compartment and trunk area. Original vehicle.
Rear view mirror was replaced before I bought Car doesn't switch for dimming. Antenna makes noise when extending had a switch installed to stop it from moving. I only listen to CD or MP3 through tape adapter.
Nearly new Goodyear eagles. 1 year old NAPA battery top of the brand.
Rebuilt ASI Throttle Body New Spark plugs runs well.
Ideas on value would be appreciated.
Thinking of selling as It is rarely driven.

 

Hmmm, always difficult to price a car unseen, low miles are in its favor, could be priced anywhere from $5,000-$10,000

If the timing tensioners haven't been done, deduct $2,500, and deduct another $500 for the stone chips, antennae and rear view mirror.

Obviously really clean examples sell for high dollar, examples with some problems can be hard to fetch good money.

There's a 2000 65K mile example that bid to $8,800 but didn't meet the reserve.

And a 2003 45K mile example that sold for $18,000

Check eBay, cargurus, autotrader, craigslist, etc, for a mixture of comparisons.

What do you think it should sell for?

That 2000 65k mile off BaT was re-listed. Sold for $10,100.

Also, OP's car is a 2002. It most likely already has the 3rd timing stuff.

 

Ah, interesting stuff, thanks for posting.

It may have the MKII tensioners, but I don't think the MKIII metal tensioners were fitted until 2003 and on..........so much confusion over this, I read that the metal tensioners were not fitted until the 4.2 variant. I also don't remember, or am confused about, when they upgraded the single-row timing chain to the dual-row with corresponding dual-row toothed CVVTs. I guess the only sure-fire way is to remove a valve cover.

Aug/01+ cars use a Morse type kinda-sorta multi row primary chain (not the double row on the 4.2) and MkIII tensioners on them. The Ford AJ30 got the same updates soon after.

 

Get some good pics up as I'm about to enter the XJR market & black on black was my 1st choice.

 

I'll get some pics up as soon as as soon as possible.

 

My dad's 03 xjr r1 has the metal tensioners and Morse chain.
When I bought my 02 xjr, I wasn't sure what tensioners had. And on top of that, bought it site unseen on an online dealer auction. Anyways, got the car to my house. Took off a cam cover. Luckily, it has the 3rd gen timing parts. Which was fitted on engines built after August 13, 2001.

 

I bought my 38,000 mile R last summer for $11,500. Florida snow bird car. Slight wear on driver seat...new headliner@ $200. Otherwise pristine throughout. Tires about 50%.
