i agree I have been searching across the US, ideally I would like to pick it up myself but I am not opposed to picking up a super clean example and having it shipped to me. I have checked the marketplace, just haven’t seemed to find any that fit the bill. Thanks!

Thanks for the replies guys. Yeah I should have been more specific, I am not looking to spend anywhere near $50k for this car, i was hoping for A LOT less, to me, this car is not worth it for $50k, I would love a 5.0 XKR for the sake of the power and differential but will settle for a 4.2 XKR in terms of reliability. I really want the extra power and a differential though. I had my S-Type R for under two years and drove it almost 30k miles in a single year. Needless to say I drive a ton and I think a a more modern XK would improve the driving experience in terms of performance, reliability, and mpg. My STR was kinda a nightmare for me and this is the reasoning for desiring a low mileage example. I’m looking for a great deal not just a fair deal and I have been browsing cargurus, cars.com, Facebook marketplace and autotrader for weeks. Was hoping someone within the forums wanted to get rid of theirs.

i am honestly looking for an insane deal on one and hope I don’t get laughed at but I have seen a handful before and lots of people are asking wayyyy too much versus what the actual value is. I really would like a 2010+ xkr coupe in non-black and ideally wouldn’t like to spend more than $20k for it. Ideally under 30k miles. I have seen one or two get swiped up immediately costing 22 or 21k with close to that mileage. For the 07-09 xkr ideally wouldn’t like to spend more than $15k for the same mileage also not black or red. My str was black and the summers here in Philadelphia were miserable plus the paint never stayed clean ever. Must be a coupe. But everyone lists the 4.2 xkr for nearly the same exact price as the 5.0 xkr so unless it’s a steal I really would prefer the 5.0. My str has the 4.2 and I trust it’s reliability 100% versus the engine in the 2010+ as well as the finicky electronics and so on. This car will be driven year round nonstop so I do find reliability important but I do desire the facelift for all it has to offer.

Hello neighbor,
i recently purchased my 2010 XKR with 40k miles on the odometer after numerous weeks looking near and far. I bought mine at 26,500 from a Jag dealer and I don’t think I could have done any better on the price. I then had the wheels powder coated and had a oil leak fixed under the extended warranty I purchased with the car. I think your 20k price range is unrealistic for 10’ and newer, but wish you all the best of luck in your search.

i only want an R model because I would modify the 4.2 xkr to meet my standards of power and performance. I do not like the NA 5.0s

See now sub $25k especially if it had an extended warranty I’d highly consider, slightly out of budget, but I would strongly consider it.




Yes I agree, I am just setting expectations low. I have seen clean car fax perfectly maintained sub 40k mile 5.0 xkrs (in black which at that rate I’d consider) for under $25k.

If if I could have a 4.2 XKR with an LSD installed and some performance mods, I would be in a strong search of a 4.2, but it seems like my budget is only allowing for that. My logic is why pay close to 5.0 money for a 4.2 when I would buy a 5.0 and leave it alone...well other than exhaust modifications of course...but is the 4.2 much more bulletproof than the 5.0? I just really want that LSD for poor conditions and spirited driving. Why spend the money on a Quaife unit and other modifications when a stock 5.0 xkr has everything provided, plus mods don’t add value.

my 4.2 was amazing in my STR and other than the typical things like coil packs it never skipped a beat. But an extended warranty is much more attractive with a 5.0 in my eyes and a lot less headache. I am willing to stretch my budget slightly if the right car pops up.

as you all can see I am very torn but a good deal on either would make me very happy.

Thank you I appreciate it! honestly I said that about my STR, but I think the most intelligent action is to buy with very low miles and sell before 100k miles.

if I am spending 30+k on a car that involved a loan which I would like to avoid at all costs, plus for that money there are so many other cars out there I could choose from which would be just as fast, more reliable, newer, and with lower miles. I’ve just been surrounded by jags for decades and love them too much to move on just yet!

From reading the forums and so on, it appears that the 2007 XKR seems to be the superior choice in terms of reliability. Performance can be reached as the 5.0 with minimal modifications and the kbb for the 2007 seems to be under &15k if it has 35k miles. With that being said, anyone know of any cars for sale?

Anyone agree with my logic in terms of reliability? Only thing that is making this car not the perfect car is no LSD as well as just a bit down on power. But reliability and gas mileage is much better. I have also heard that the 2007 cars are more reliable than the 2008-2009 cars too?
