The Purist’s Choice: Supercharged 1999 Jaguar 4.0 V8 XKR
They say you don’t choose a Jaguar; it chooses you. After vetting 60 examples and personally inspecting five across the UK, I found "the one." This July ’99 XKR is a masterclass in Grand Touring, finished in striking Carnival Red over a pristine Ivory interior with the full timber slab dash.
With only 57,000 miles and the iconic BBS alloys, this isn't just a car—it's a time capsule.
Performance & Pedigree
If you’re comparing this to an XK8, let me save you the Google search: the XKR is the superior beast. From the more robust gearbox and upgraded tensioners to that addictive supercharger whine, it offers a level of visceral engagement the naturally aspirated models simply can’t match.
Better Than Factory
Being an enthusiast with three XKRs in the stable, I’ve addressed every "Jaguar quirk" to ensure this car drives better than it did in 1999:
• Engineering Flaws Fixed: Custom over-axle exhaust removes the restrictive factory "U-bend," offering a richer tone without losing that refined Jaguar purr.
• Rust Prevention: The notorious wheel arch "dirt traps" have been professionally reshaped and sealed with no expense spared.
• Mechanical Peace of Mind: New AC compressor, fresh differential oil (and breather service), and an engine bay restoration including a freshly painted supercharger.
• Aesthetic Perfection: New rock chip protection along the sills and fresh interior trim pieces sourced from Europe.
Condition & Provenance
The interior is, quite frankly, unblemished—a rare find that speaks to its pampered life. Beneath the skin, it’s just as impressive; the chassis and mechanicals have passed rigorous examinations for wear and corrosion with flying colours. The exterior has been treated with a ceramic coating to protect the longevity and lustre of the original paint.
It arrives with a meticulous pedigree, including the original UK MOT reports, an original Jaguar stamped service book, and a comprehensive record of its seamless Australian ADR compliance and engineering.
Viewing the Cat
Currently residing in the Balingup, but I’m frequently in Perth or Busselton on weekends and can easily arrange a viewing.
The first person to put their foot down and feel that supercharger engage won’t want to get out. Don't say I didn't warn you.
