Before the 2013 introduction of the F-Type, Jaguar’s sports lineage was epitomized by the XK. Jaguar crafted two generations of the XK, spanning from 1996 to 2005 and from 2005 to 2014. Throughout its tenure, the XK boasted V8 power, albeit with variations in engine specifications.
Pictured is a 2012 Jaguar XKR featuring a 5.0-liter supercharged engine mated to an automatic transmission, producing over 500 horsepower—an impressive figure even by today’s standards. Despite its age, the XKR’s performance remains formidable, sprinting to sixty-two mph (100 kph) in approximately four and a half seconds.
With three owners over twelve years, this California-based XKR boasts nearly 51,500 miles (~82,800 km) on the odometer. Featuring a black exterior, matching ragtop, and unmodified interior, it is described as impeccably preserved, promising a thrilling driving experience.
Available at Garage Kept Motors for $29,900, this XKR offers a compelling value compared to its contemporary counterparts. While newer models may command higher price tags, this well-maintained XKR presents a compelling option for enthusiasts seeking timeless performance and style.
