Default X358 XJR's Where Are You

I bought my 2008 XJR about 5 years ago, after a while I wondered how many had been built so, I sent an enquiry to Jaguar Heritage to see if they could help and I received the below response.

Now I started to wonder with so few being built where are they all.

Lets start an X358 XJR Registry, My info: is below the following response.

Subject: Re: General Enquiry - rkrisel@msn.com Dear Mr Krisel, thank you for your email. Unfortunately, Jaguar's production figures make no distinction between X350 and X358 (they are all recorded as X350s). However, working from the date of manufacture from the first X350 off the line (May 2007) until end of production (March 2009) I have a record of 614 X358 XJRs being built.Best wishes,
Ms. Faye McLeod

Hello, I'll chime in here, as the owner of a 2009 XJR. My wife found mine (at a Carmax no less) in Feb. 2013, with only 16K miles on it. It was in immaculate condition, and has largely been trouble-free, other than some air suspension issues that were rectified under the Jaguar Extended Warranty that I was able to purchase since the car was under factory warranty when I bought it.

Unfortunately, this pristine vehicle was rear-ended on the freeway last spring at 65mph, and spent 6 weeks in the body shop. The rear quarter panel was replaced, and the rear valence panel was supposed to be, but was NLA, so it was "repaired." As with all body repair, none of this was perfect, but it is back on the road. Sadly, it is now a car with a collision repair history, and will never be worth what it could be as a very scarce model. This scarcity has been evident as I deal with the at fault party's insurance company on the diminished value aspect of the claim, and they have had a very difficult time establishing value based upon any comparables.
