Just came across this ad, anyone going to be the lucky owner, if it was only in Ireland,

Jaguar XK XKR175 75th Anniversary | eBay

http://www.ecarlist.com/showroom/668...os/20766499#05

 

Seems a little high compared to what the rest of us have paid for our used 175's.

 

What is a fair offer?

 

It was for sale private party for less before the guy I guess traded it in. Without the Kasuga rims, It really loses the provenance that makes the 175 unique.

 

Dealer certified high price is $57k. From just any used dealer without the Kasugas I would think more in the $45-50k range.

 

Beautiful car and rare. I am not a fan of the wheels though but that should not deter anyone from buying it. Just need to hold back money so you can purchase the OEM wheels.

 

Not digging the wheels at all. Just ruined the car.

 

I like the wheels, but that's just me. It looks in excellent condition. It's amazing to see that the xkr has had many different changes from time to time since 2006. From the 2006 xkr -2008 xkrs-the 75 editions and the rs and rs gt.
Anyone looking to buy has a great choice.

 

I think you'll find the wheel's on the wrong side for Ireland

 

I could live with it, when i feel i want a change i will have to go to the UK to buy for my next one, as all xkr's seem to have been exported here. There still is plenty of xk's, but as i said no 75 editions , dynamic r's and definitely no xkrs cars.
What did you think of the F1 today, for me i was delighted to see Ferrari back at the top. Looks like a quick car, being a schumacher fan, it brought a tear to my eye of times gone bye thinking of the former legend.

 

Good race, nice to see some competition up front that wasn't Merc-on-Merc. Shame my McLaren boys both went bang, because the chassis looks quite good and the cars were doing OK despite being down 100+ HP. I'm hoping they'll have the Honda engine turned up to full power by the time we get to Silverstone (paid for tickets & camping this week).
