New Chap with new toy!
HI I have recently purchased a 2006 XKR Coupe and have driven only a few hundred miles.
It's my second Jaguar with the first being a Replica XK 120 fitted with mostly
Jaguar parts including the engine.
The performance with the XKR is staggering compared to the XK 120 Replica.
It has been fitted with a Stainless Steel Exhaust with gives it an enviable Jaguar Growl.
The ride is superb and of course the acceleration is terrific.
My only concern is what are the tyre pressures for the low profile tyres. I will check this out on the relevant section of this forum.

Welcome to the forum Pat,
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.
You'll find the recommended tyre pressures on a label under the centre console lid:
I can see you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.
Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.
You can also visit the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.
Enjoy the forums.
