Default XKR Emissions Inspection

Does my recently acquired 2006 XKR (which is fantastic!) have a receptacle for plugging in an emissions test device? If so, where is it? I don't see anything on the left below the dash where other cars have it. Thanks in advance.

For the location of the OBDII diagnostics port, see the photo in my post #3 in this thread:

Please post future technical questions about your 2006 XKR Victory Edition in the XK8/XKR forum.

US Federal law states that the OBDII port must be within 18" of the steering wheel.

The weirdest place I saw was a BMW Z3 that is on the RIGHT side of the center console.

Thanks Graham. If it was a snake it would have bit me. No excuse how I missed seeing it. This is my first car new enough to have a port;
being one of those old guys who sometimes keeps a car for more than 50 years.

Thanks for mentioning the XK8/XKR section of the forum. Will post there in the future.
