Default New XKR owner



Just purchased this XKR Portfolio from a member on this site. Previous owner did an incredible job of maintenance and tasteful modifications. Absolutely love the car and am looking forward to getting some miles behind the wheel.

I was going to buy that car in the spring. My wife finally gave me the OK but I had to put mine up for sale first. I was about to commit and then the ad disappeared. Oh well, there's always another but I agree, his mods were tasteful and the car looks well cared for. Very glad that it went to someone who appreciates it. Congrats and welcome.

You got yourself an awesome car. It is built right, a very cohesive package with perfect suspension, brakes and exhaust mods.

My wife and I were thinking to go out for a drive this morning and my first thought was ‘lets take the Jag’. Guess that won’t happen anymore!

Very happy it went to a good home and will be appreciated and loved. Congrats!!

I’m forging ahead on my Corvette collection, the search is on for # 4, a C7 Z06 7 spd manual.
