Hi Everyone,
I just purchased 2007 XKR Jag convertible victory edition, how do I know if it is the aluminum body? Thanks

 

All X150's have aluminum bodies.. Welcome to the forum. Go to the new members page and introduce yourself.

Take a kitchen refirgerator magnet and try placing it on the car.

 

I never heard of an X150 Victory Edition. This is Wikipedia for the X100:

Victory Edition

Introduced at the 2005 Los Angeles International Auto Show, the Victory Edition was offered in model year 2006, to "celebrate Jaguar's four championship wins in the North American Trans-Am road racing series and add to a successful lineage of special and limited edition XKs introduced since its launch," according to Jaguar's press statement. The statement went on to explain that "All four XK models – XK8 Coupe and Convertible and supercharged XKR Coupe and Convertible – will be offered as ‘Victory’ editions when the line-up goes on sale next summer. The new exterior styling changes introduced for the 2005 models continue to give the car a bolder, more aggressive and more muscular look." The Victory Edition was offered in all standard XK colours, plus four unique Victory Edition colours: Black Copper Metallic, Frost Blue Metallic, Bay Blue Metallic and Satin Silver Metallic. Victory Editions offered carbon fibre interior trim on XKR models, and a new Elm wood veneer on the XK8 models. Victory Editions also received special badging and accents. The "growler" badge on the hood (bonnet) had a unique checkered-flag background, and door sill plates featured checkered-flag emblems.[14] Production of Victory Edition models was 1,050 cars.[15]

Also, does it look like an X150 or an X100?

 

I just got back from Ontario Can. with the Jag, I will post some pictures and will be asking some questions. Thanks for your replies to my first question. Hey Sean, where do I find the new members page? Thanks

 

So is it a steel bodied X100 (right in Cee Jay's photo) or an aluminium bodied X150 (left in the photo)?
