This is a good opportunity to buy an enthusiast-owned Jag. I'm moving to AZ so it's for sale.
This GT car has a 4.2 liter super-charged V8 (390 horses and 399 ft/lbs of torque), power to the rear, and a big trunk so she can bring whatever women bring in those giant suit cases; or your golf clubs, if ladies aren't your thing.
Couple cosmetics issues; nothing distracting. No mechanical issues. It's got 138,xxx miles. Feel free take it to your mechanic or brother in law for a pre-sale check; whatever you think you need to do.
Price is negotiable.
Two new Nitto rear tires (front and rear are different sizes).
Other noteables:
-OEM Alpine sound w/ 6 CD changer
-OEM GPS
-Rain sensing wipers
-Adaptive cruise control
-Rear parking sensors
-Power convertible top
- Halogen headlamps and fog lights
-Traction control
-Lower ride height from factory than the xk8
-Huge disc brakes on all 4 wheels (not an option on xk8)
-Good enthusiast support on the Jaguar forums (what kind of oil?, best tires?, etc.)
One more thing; if you're looking at these specifically, this was the first year of the upgraded motor and 6 speed transmission so no timing chain tensioner trouble or transmission issues to worry about like pre-2003 models. I believe this is the AJ-34 motor but don't quote me on that.

Beej, I have been admiring your beautiful XKR since you have posted it here.
I have been asking my XKR friends about this specimen. All have asked about the suspension. Have you or PO replaced any upper bushings shocks other suspension parts? Also, have you or PO upgraded the top hydraulics?
Unfortunately life just tossed my family a hick up. I was about to contact you and have a drive down (6 hours) to see if we could come to an agreement. But as mentioned, my wife will have to wait a little longer than expected to replace her S Type.
She is a beaut! GLWS

@joycesjag Excellent! Thanks for your interest and compliements.
Yes, PO did replace suspension components. It rides beautifully but let me see if I can reach out to him for some specifics. I don't know that these specifics will be available but I would absolutely work with you (or other potential buyer) to get the XKR to a mechanic of your choosing to evaluate whichever components you wish, as soon as those hiccups let up
Thanks again.

beej, Are you coming thru Albuquerque on your way to Florida? I went to both Cargurus and C/L to see more pictures. and wow! You could drop the Jag off at my place on your way to AZ. LOL
On a serious note, I am curious about the Cargurus comment "No mechanical issues. Burns a bit of oil. It's got 138,xxx miles..."
Can you be more specific about how many quarts of oil per miles it is burning? Have you done any research into the oil burning, such as a leak down + compression test and a blow by measurement? Does it have a puff of smoke when starting, or if you let off the gas, let it slow about 20 mph or so, and then get on it, does it blow smoke then? Thanks for the info. The car looks great.

Thanks for your interest, and good eye. I removed the "burns some oil" language because it stopped when i switched from Synthetic to conventional on my most recent oil change at 136,000. It used to burn a little more than a half quart every thousand miles depending on driving conditions/foot weight. Anything more than a quart per oil change (3k-4k miles) is a nuisance. I didnt think that solution would work but it did.
Every few morning starts it will have a puff of white smoke but the oil level has been steady; i checked it this morning after reading your comments. It never blew smoke when i got on the gas from low speed.
I asked for a compression test when i first brought the XKR in for service but didnt go through with it since that big ol' supercharger (im told) makes the test more difficult ($$)

Thanks!
