Later XK8's had chrome, later XKR's were painted to match.

A 2005 XKR should be the same color as the paint. If it's not, someone changed them out.

eBay Motors is full of scammers now. Two of the last three cars I tried to buy on eBay were wire fraud scams.

There can't be too many French registered XKR 4.2-S in Frost Blue. I wonder if he asked permission to use this photo ............?

also my car is present at the site of ADAMESH :
jaguar accessories | jaguar xk8 xkr | led reflector lights

but, unlike Dave, Geoff asked me many pictures and information in exchange for a gift!
very reliable and accurate Geoff!

RE why id want to change it to chrome.... nothing to do with making it look older / newer, simply because I think the chrome 'lifts' the back hugely and ends up making the rear a lot prettier!

Where you able to find it on their site I cant? Can you post a link?
