Description
1998 Jaguar XKR (X100)
Pretty supercharged
Coupe in Pheonix red showing 93,920 miles; in the same ownership since 2002;
nice registration A1OAW included
Supplied new by
H.R. Owen of Colchester, Essex at the Jaguar Cars Ambassador launch, Packington
Hall, Coventry on the 6th May 1998 this early X100 series XKR is
finished in the launch colour of Phoenix Red and sits upon its original 18”
staggered fitment Double-Five alloy wheels.
Under the sleek, vented bonnet we find the thumping 4.0 litre
supercharged AJ26S engine which develops 370bhp and a monstrous 525NM of torque
giving phenomenal performance and a zero to sixty time of just 5.4 seconds.
Power is delivered by five-speed automatic transmission to the rear
wheels.
Inside this big cat, we find cream
leather interior boasting heated electric seats with driver memory function,
contrasting black carpets and dash top roll, dark wood trim, cruise control,
electric windows and mirrors, Harmon Kardon sound system with CD changer,
automatic digital climate control with AC, XKR embossed timber and leather
multi-function steering wheel, automatic lights and wipers and electric lumbar
adjustment.
The car comes to us from a deceased
estate, and shows 93,920 miles the car having been in the current ownership
since August 2002 and includes the rather attractive private registration ‘A1
OAW’ which must be worth c.£700-£1,000 alone surely.
The history file for this Lot includes the V5C revealing three
former keepers, the owners pack and Service Book recording 12 stamps, the last
in November 2009 at 77,852 miles by Hartlebury Specialist Car Care of Worcs,
with eight of the stamps all Jaguar main dealers. In addition, we also find one old MOT
two old style V5C’s, recent invoice for a lube service dated June 2021 at 93,617
miles, a historic service bill from 2009 and correspondence between the first
owner, a business (WH Group) and the 2nd, the user who purchased his former
company car from his employer and subsequent purchase receipt dated May
2002.
The car looks ready to be enjoyed, and
bar the usual minor sagging of the head-lining the car appears in attractive
order (and an intermittent ABS/ASC warning light) with a clean MOT valid until
22nd June 2022 (the date of the sale, so please bare this in mind if
you intend to drive this home after purchase, you will need a booked MOT slot)
recording no advisories and showing the car has covered only c.1,500 miles in
the last four years.
