1997 XJRs vs later models?

The shift to the AJ27-27S engines. Drive by wire throttle and cruise control.
CATS suspension fitted to most of the later R's along with R1 wheel/brake/suspension packages.
Full heated seats
Auto electronics on the Can-bus
Last of them, from 14th August 01 had the S engine with later 4.2 timing and oil pump along with steel liners. For me the pick of the bunch.

I found one that was black-on-black and had heated seats, cruise control, memory seats, a
I was hellbent on the heated seats, but I've heard they're not really powerful so I can live without them and install heated seat mats.
The HK system - I'll overhaul the speaker system in the car, so I'm not missing out on that.
Cruise control - apparently I can fit it myself so it may be a future project.
The XJR I've seen has had the following done:·
- Poly front suspension bushes,
- · 25-30mm lowered & uprated springs with bottom wishbone suspension mounting position changed to bring camber back into spec (2013).
- · Front wheel bearings replaced (2020).
- · Rear driveshaft rebuilt with new UJs & new Rear wheel bearings (2021)
- · geometry Lazer was adjusted in 2019 when 4 new tyres were fitted.
- · EBC Grooved brake discs and green stuff pads,
- · Brake fluid flush (2019)
- · Recon Prop shaft (2021).
- · Oils changed in the Diff and Gearbox.
- · Autonomous Super charger cooling system with high capacity Bosch 010 charge cooler pump and 35% Larger surface area Pre charge cooler radiator, 14% rpm increase bottom supercharger pulley (boosting low down power)
- · Supercharger rebuilt with SOLID coupling,
- · Valley pipes done at the same time (2020)
- · Bespoke fabricated Magna flow 200 2.5" cats pipework reducing to standard exhaust middle section. Both fuel pumps and fuel filters replaced (2019)
- · Cam box gaskets replaced when check carried out to ensure Metal tensioner upgrade has been carried prior to increasing the power output.
- · Real Gauge coolant module fitted (far more accurate than std).
- · bumpers/boot lid and rear qtrs painted due to age-related marks.
- · new headliner fitted
Am I really missing out on much?
