Default XKR-S in the house
Just picked up my dream Jaguar. Here are a couple of crappy night shots, I'll post some better ones soon. I'll be taking it to the Houston Coffee & Cars event this coming Saturday if any locals want to meet up.

Always loved the old Ford grabber blue, I restored and sold a 1970 Mach 1 original grabber blue mustang just last year. Anyway, cheers and happy driving.

Default Beeea-utiful!
What a looker! The color really does "grab you". I really like the carbon fiber engine cover too, nicely done.

Congratulations!

Nice! I test drove a French racing blue xkr-s like yours, but ended up getting a white one. I really like the carbon fiber engine cover. Your car will get a lot of attention!

There's something to be said in buying the color they advertise the car in.

I would never have imagined Grabber Blue as an appropriate color for an XK/XKR.

But ------ damn! Seeing is believing!
