Introduced at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show, the second-generation Jaguar XK range (codenamed X150) was styled by Ian Callum. Deliberately evoking the E-Type via its oval grille, speeding teardrop glasshouse and muscular haunches, the newcomer featured bonded / riveted aluminium construction, all-round independent suspension, power steering and four-wheel disc brakes. Powered by a supercharged 4.2 litre V8 engine developing some 420bhp and 413lbft of torque, the range topping XKR variant was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.9 seconds and 155mph (limited). The standard fit six-speed automatic transmission could either be left to its own devices or made to swap cogs by the steering wheel mounted paddle shifts. A rival to the Porsche 911 (997) and Mercedes-Benz SL (R230), the Jaguar (X150) XK / XKR remained in production until 2014 by which time a mere 54,000 had been sold (compared to 212,704 Porsche 997s and 169,443 Mercedes-Benz R230s).
Finished in Black with Ivory leather upholstery, this particular example is variously described by the vendor as being in ‘very good’ (paintwork, interior trim) or ‘excellent’ (engine, automatic transmission, electrical equipment, bodywork) condition. Entering the current, third ownership in 2015, ‘NH58 VYB’ is warranted to have covered just 14,600 miles from new (at the time of cataloguing). Accompanied by a service book with five main dealer and three subsequent stamps in it, this low mileage modern classic is offered for sale with book pack and MOT certificate valid until October 2021.
Vendor Condition Ratings:
Bodywork: 'Excellent'
