Found it online! Great Video too! Enjoy guys
2015 Aston Martin V12 Vantage S vs. 2014 Jaguar XKR-S GT Comparison - Motor Trend

 

does the XKR-S GT still have a back seat?


I'm a little biased but I think the XKs are much better looking than the Vantage.

 

I believe the back seat is gone and a roll bar is added???

 

Yep here it is. I wonder if you can get a kit to match your interior to reduce weight??

 

The car in the video clearly has rear seats, you can see it when both are in the car. You can also see the rear seat belts.

 

Hawaii, that was a very entertaining video. Thanks for posting that. Two magnificent cars, side by side. I want their job.

 

I am pretty sure that the roll bars weight far more than the removed rear seats.

 

Don't know if the roll cage is an option but there is none in the test car. You can clearly see the rear seats and seat belts.

 

Just wanted to post as a new member and owner of a gt in the US. All cars shipped to the states do not have the roll cage as promised by jaguar. They are also missing the changes to the cat converters that the 10 gt's for the UK have. These where promised by jaguar in paperwork they gave me when I ordered it back in April. Actually have a case with jaguar trying to get myself the cage and the exhaust changes that they originally advertised.

 

Bummer. Can you give us a picture of what the back seat area looks like on your car?

 

Will try to get you a picture later tonight when I get back home. But the back seats are identical to my xkrs with some suede cloth in place of some of the leather.
