Buyer’s notes
About the Jaguar XKR
The XKR arrived in 1998 as the supercharged version of Jaguar’s XK8, with a 370 bhp 4.0-litre V8 and a Mercedes-built five-speed automatic, as a coupé or a convertible. The engine later grew to 4.2 litres and 400 bhp.
What moves the price
- The engine: its bore liners, and whether the timing chain tensioners have been upgraded.
- Body: coupé or convertible.
- History and corrosion, which separate good cars from tired ones.
Before you buy, check
- On early 4.0-litre cars, whether the engine still has its original Nikasil liners or a replacement with steel liners.
- The timing chain tensioners: evidence they have been replaced, and no rattle at start-up.
- The steel body for corrosion, damp front footwells, and worn front suspension bushes.
