Haven't seen many new car posts but I'm so excited I just had to share. Over the moon with my new XKR. It's nuts, can't believe I'm going to own a car like this.

 

Beautiful! What year?

 

From a Lexus dealer? What a downgrade.

 

I know the feeling!!! Nice Ride !!! Ranchero50 😂

 

I know right. What were they thinking? @110reef it's a 2012.

 

Mine came from a major Honda dealer.

It was a very funny experience buying a car that looked that expensive from a Honda dealer.

After the car had been pulled out front and I'd driven it, and was discussing things, every single female employee it seemed had to take a peak around the corner at me.

Enjoy the XKR.

There are few cars that will deliver that sort of performance in a comfortable and easy to use restful fashion.

 

Mine came from a Mazi dealer.....all they talked about was how much nicer it looked than anything else on their lot. In fact they had it sitting in front of the showroom as a draw.

Welcome to the coolest crowd here!

 

Superb color combo looks very exotic

 

IRR is my favorite colour for the XK and F Type, there is a reason that IRR was the hero colour for the brochures on the XK update. Both of our cars are IRR and we get comments on how nice it is.

 

I really love the color on the four doors.

 

Hey, that's a beautiful looking ride there!

 

Looking good!:-)

 

Yeah it was very weird buying from the Lexus salesman who happily admitting he didn't have a clue. Luckily it's not my first XK (first XKR) so was able to fill in the gaps.

Thanks for the kind words :-) I couldn't be happier.

 

What a GREAT , GREAT car! Those XKR's are such a secret. They cost 10 cents on the dollar compared to new, they have huge seating areas and LARGE trunk /hatch and with the v8 they are BULLET proof for the money.
I bought my 08 used and put 50,000 miles in 24 months , you coudnt kill it!
Enjoy

Love the color combo, enjoy!

 

Great color, always been a big fan of the Nevis wheels - Enjoy the ride!

 

Mine also came from a Lexus dealer. LOL!

 

Couldn't agree more. I know of very little else in the UK that has the presence, power and looks for the money. I really do hope JLR decide to bring it back one day.

 

You got a hot color combo inside and out with the right wheel design; well done!

 

Is the IRR paint harder on the older models than it is on '17 XE? The soft paint on the XE is negative for me. I remember the XK having harder paint.
