Default Newbie with a question

Hello to fellow members and enthusiasts, I am very new to this group and to the jaguar family. I live in Northern NSW Australia. I have sold my Boxster 981 and have put a deposit on a 2011 XKR with a pickup next Tuesday. I am not very familiar with the variants of the XKR and have a couple of questions which some members may be able to assist with??
I understand that this XKR was built in November 2010 and dispatched on the 3rd of December. I understand that it achieved Australian compliance in March 2011 and sold through a Brisbane dealer in June 2011. (I further understand that it's registered number was 'BOMBERS'.
I have found the following: Stratus Grey paint and Warm Napa Charcoal interior

I believe the 'build sheet' includes the following features:
Speed pack BODY KIT....Automatic Transmission....Super Performance breaks...red Calipers with 'R'.....Adaptive Dynamics....10/Limo front suspension...LESS spare wheel...20" Kalimnos Gloss Black Wheels...Gloss Black Grill...Dvr Pas 16 way (seats) ...Eng Torque 625nm...Speed limiter 174mph/ 280kph....Canvas Alston Head liner...Alston upper...Piano veneer...lots of other things that mostly relate to interior trim and body colored things..

The vehicle has a red sticker on each front fender behind the front wheel. This sticker depicts a signature and the words 'Ian Callum' under the signature.

The used car yard has advertised this vehicle as an 'Ian Callum Special Edition with Black Pack'...(also state it has a Jaguar Branding package and sports exhaust

I have googled this and I have not found any reference to this model???

Do any members believe this is a genuine model from JLR or have any thoughts???

Thanks in Advance

Welcome.

I reckon a quickie repost in the XK/XKR (X150) Tech section will get the exposure and answers you seek.

Not all members come in here.

I dont know the answers.

Nice sounding beast just the same.
