Not often up for sale is the older 4.2 XKR-S, nice to see.
Jaguar Xkr-S 4.2 2dr

 

Does anyone know can the body kit be ordered from a dealer and is there part numbers, seems to be the same kit as on the 75 editions etc.

 

Yes

 

wow that car looks good despite having the wheel on the wrong side!

 

Wheel on the wrong side, well why is the steering wheel on the RIGHT side of the car in Britain? Because otherwise it would be on the WRONG side of the car, simple.

Now i feel a joke coming on,
A man walks into a bar with a steering wheel shoved down his pants. The barman looks at him curiously and says, ''Buddy, you know you got a steering wheel shoved down your pants?'' The man answers, ''Yeah, I know! It's been driving me nuts all day.''

And the man orders a glass of Lindeman's Cabernet, and the barman asks: "Buddy, do you know how they make Lindeman's wine?" And the man answers, "Yeah, sure do, they squeeze his nuts!"

Anyone else? How far can we keep this going? Or has it gone too far already?

 

Collector's item maybe? I think so because of its beauty and rarity, but only time will tell. See: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...ertible-45154/

I believe the 2008 4.2L XKR-S was a UK-only model, since it was not sold in the USA. Interesting to note that the XKR-S is similar to the USA 2008 XKR Portfolio Edition, which was also black (Celestial black) and was also equipped with Alcon brakes as standard equipment. I noted that this particular XKR-S is not equipped with Adaptive Cruise.

I think the original design Vortex (exclusive to the 2008 XKR-S) is the best looking wheel ever on an XKR. Too bad they're so rare and expensive.

[QUOTE=Stuart S;1334830]Lets keep going,

Rory McIroy brings his jaguar to be valeted. It gets the whole wash and wax treatment. There's a new guy on his first day on the job and is told to clean the inside. After a while he goes to his supervisor and says " i'm after finding all these plastic things all over the footwell". The supervisor looks at them and says " they hold Rory's ***** when he's driving", the young guy replies, " man, Jaguar think of everything".

 

Pretty cool!
