Mine has 20" Nevis wheels, straight out of the factory.

 

That is generally what happens when the original owner ticks the option list. My 07 has factory fitted 20" wheels as well.

This is from the USA 2010MY Press release and excerpt from 2010 US brochure attached:

Stylish new wheels

The new XK range introduces five new alloy wheel designs, some of them replacing earlier designs, some introducing completely new additional choices. Together, they bring the total number of alloy wheel options on the new XK range to six.

The new 19-inch ten-‘V’-spoke Caravela wheel is now standard on XK Portfolio. The all-new 19-inch 10-fan-spoke Artura design is available in painted or chromed finishes and in conventional or run-flat types. These Artura wheels are offered as options on XK Portfolio and (in run-flat form) on XKR. Another all-new wheel, the 19-inch ten-spoke Tamana design, becomes standard equipment on XKR and is unique to the model.
A new 19-inch mini-spare is introduced as standard equipment for the XKR, while the weight and space-saving Instant Mobility System still takes the place of a spare wheel on the XK Portfolio.

Distinctive 20-inch wheels continue as a very sporty option across the new XK range - emphasizing the cars’ sporting dynamics and assertive, muscular looks. The new designs include two 20-inch wheels: the twin-five-spoke Kalimnos is optional for XK Portfolio and XKR while the twin-seven-spoke R Performance Nevis design is a unique option for the XKR, and an addition to the wheel range.

 

Cold you post the 2010 US brochure to the stickies

 

Just checked: My 2008 XKR Portfolio convertible does not have a heated steering wheel option. There is a blank space between the R & L seat heater icons.

I also do not have powerfold mirrors when parking. There is no option on the Vel Settings/Security screen to set this on or off. I also tried to push both mirror buttons at the same time and nothing happened.

I do have the option under Parking to "Dip" the mirrors when backing up.

I wonder if there are different options for the Coupe and Convertible.

 

Dave,

As I said in my post #15, the heated steering wheel was not available in the USA-market 2008 and 2009 XKR Portfolio models. You confirmed it.

Powerfold mirrors were an option in 2008, so I guess they weren't part of the Portfolio package since you checked the Vehicle Settings/Security screen and the Mirror Fold Back On/Off choice wasn't there. Just like the heated steering wheel wasn't part of the Portfolio package. I think it's the same for coupe and convertible.

That's a difference between model years since my 2009 XKR Portfolio convertible has the powerfold mirrors. They automatically fold in when I lock the doors and fold out when I open the doors. They can be enabled/disabled in the vehicle settings. Another difference between 2008 and 2009 is iPod connectivity, which first appeared in 2009.
