Spare wheel question
Am I right in thinking that ALL 19" equipped XKs do NOT come with a spare wheel?
The 2008 XKR I owned had 20" wheels and a donut, but I have this vague memory that the 19" cars had runflats and no spare, or regular tires and an inflator kit. No spare is a "no sale" deal breaker for me living here in the desert SW.

If the car that you happen to buy did not come with a donut spare, why can't you just buy one and put it into the spare tire well, along with the scissors jack and jack handle/tire lug wrench?

It may depend on what model year you are talking about but the 2010 brochures state this:
Jaguar tyre repair system is not available with 19" or 20" wheels. The space saver spare wheel is required and must be specified instead

My 2009 XKR Portfolio convertible has Alcons and the inflator kit. I added a compact spare. Here's how to do it:

Hi there!
I discovered that my spare tire is not hold in the trunk. I have a holder, but it doesn’t hold tire, as if a threaded part is missing from the floor. Can you send me a photo of what should be there? I found a holder online with the number T2R3168—it looks like the one I have in my trunk. And I found this item, T2R12247—maybe this is the missing part that should be on the other side?
