Very pretty. I'm curious about the interior. I have an 01 XKR but the seats have the separate headrests??

Yes,
this car is the same as it left the factory. All body lines clean,non-smoker, corporate executive, original factory top and paint, Jaguar Serviced only, I'm the second owner.

Sitting in a garage for years being treated as a family member lol, washed,adoraed and a car cover on her. The owner DID NOT want to let it go. But after explaining this forum and myself, let it go,knowing it would have a great home.

I had to get myself a Christmas present, no one ever buys me nothing anymore.

Nice dark rich-looking convertible top. Being an XK8 'noob I recently washed my top with a fluffy sponge and dried it with a fluffy towel. It now looks like a sheep up there

Has the original color Jaguar Coolant very clean oil. Tranny is brand new and updated from Jaguar with receipt.

This is the XKR, so I cant see the valley hoses, the blower is in the way.

I plan to remove refresh the blower, replace the coolant lines that normally fail replace instal updated valve cover gaskets, flush the rear differential just to be safe.

He's asking about tensioners I think. Make sure they've been changed to metal!
