Me, too. That's why I still have it. Photo taken today with rare original Ivory leather-bound floor mats, exclusive to the Portfolio edition.

Agree! Vapour Grey is the purr-fect color for an XK.
Also notice the wood steering wheel and adaptive cruise control.
Too bad it's not a convertible though.

They do look particularly good in Vapour Grey. I missed a well priced 2010 XKR in that colour when I was looking. It was 5000€ cheaper than the otherwise very similar black one at the same dealership. The one I got in the end was a better car still but white wasn't my colour of choice - at least it wasn't black!

The vendor is in Harrogate, about sixty miles south of me. It has rained in the north east of England at some time almost every day so far this year which is why we daily drivers here favour Coupes.

The coupes just look right even though an open top car has its appeal, when its not raining or too hot

There is no such thing.

I can't tell for certain as it may just be the quality of the photo but it almost looks like the seats have cloth inserts? My gosh that beast is a beauty. Since it's on the other side of the ocean, the only logical thing for me to do it move there:-)

Just poor resolution photo .........





....... and I can definitely say that XK's are NOT grown in a field in North Yorkshire despite the evidence of this photo. .





That must be commemorating a sunny day. Not often we see shadows under a Jaguar in these parts.
