Long time lurker here and figured this car may interest the folks here.

I have to sell my XJR due to a short notice upcoming PCS move to Texas this August. I bought the car in October from a horse trainer who has a lot of Jaguars. His cars were maintained by a Euro mechanic in Corona who specializes in Jags, Rolls, etc. I hate to see her go and I really love the car. But, I'm only taking two with me.

The Car:

2000 Jaguar XJR (Silver/black)
162k miles
4.0l supercharged v8 (370hp/390ft lbs of torque)
Mercedes 5 speed auto transmission (the same behind the 55 AMG cars; very strong)

The x308 XJR is a somewhat rare and very handsome car and one of the best looking Jaguar sedans in my opinion. Very subtle and gets a lot of compliments from everyone. With that said, this thing is a sleeper! Very fast when you want it to be, yet composed. The XJR is known to be reliable as compared to the regular XJ8. There are some common issues they are known for but this car has had all that taken cared of.

The tires are practically new Yokohoma Neova Ado8's which are some of my favorite tires.

I've only had one issue with the car. The coolant hose under the supercharger burst. Caught it in the driveway so it didnt overheat. In order to replace it, everything on the top portion of the engine has to be removed including the supercharger. While in there I did the following things:

-Upgraded to metal timing chain tensioners (must be done on these cars, do not buy one with plastic tensioners)
-Coolant hoses under the supercharger (known to burst, $17 hose but a PITA to replace)
-Rebuilt Supercharger and upgraded upper pulley (Done by Powerhouse Automotive in UK)
-Replaced supercharger outlet seal
-Valve cover gaskets
-Intercooler hoses, clamps, etc
-Bosch 010 intercooler pump upgrade (flows better than stock and cheaper too. Can be found on every boosted AMG car)
-Revised intercooler duct seals
-Charge air cooler seals
-Coolant hoses
-Thermostat
-Coolant level sensor
-Part load breather hose
-Throttle body seal
-Throttle body arm to supercharger gasket
-EGR gasket
-Knock sensors (they're under those coolant hoses mention above)
-Windshield wiper
Basically every hose and gasket from the valve covers and up have been replaced. Well over $1,000 in parts.

I'm not looking to make any money from the car. I expect to lose money with every car I own because I like to do things to them. I chalk it up as paying for the experience.

$6,000 obo; only trades that ill accept is a 2000-2006 full-size GM SUV (Suburban, Tahoe, Yukon) 5.3 or 6.0.

More pics coming soon

 

Love those things. What color is the interior?

 

Black leather interior. When I get home next week ill take more intimate pics. I love the car as well

 

To the top. Price drop to $5000. Willing to trade for a v10 Ford Excursion. Preferably 4x4.

 

Could I get some more pictures? Interior and exterior. Where are you located ? What city ?
