2013 Jaguar XKR-S

A brutal and uncompromising offering from Jaguar, designed to take on the Porsche GT3 - the XKR-S is a car with no reservations about its performance driven design.

Paint

The black paintwork is in excellent condition for its age, as usually with a ten year old black cars we typically see a myriad of scratches, chips, and swirls visible in the paintwork, however short of one or two minor scratches on the lower half of the car, the paintwork is otherwise very well presented and has obviously been well looked after.

Again, we have taken high resolution images and videos of the car for you to assess the condition of the bodywork for yourselves. The images are taken from a few different angles to show off the car as you would see it if you were standing there for yourselves. So please take the time to fully assess these high resolution images and videos of the car, for you to make up your own minds about the condition of the paint.

Bodywork

The bodywork of the car is in excellent condition, with no visible knocks, bangs, bumps, or other such defects to worry about. All panel gaps look nicely aligned and all body lines are undamaged too.

We've highlighted in more detail our observations through our high resolution images and videos, so please take time to look through all the media files for a detailed view at what’s on offer, and for you to assess the condition of the car for yourselves.

Dashboard

The leather wrapped dashboard is in excellent condition, with no damage to be seen on the upper or lower sections.

Likewise the centre console is in good condition too, with all switchgear present and correct and no damage to the infotainment screen either.

The drive

The XKR-S is one of the most exciting cars Jaguar has released in recent history, with supercar horsepower, classic Jaguar build quality, and an exemplary driving experience to boot.

The supercharged engine provides linear and exact power delivery in every gear, free of any losses or lag associated with similar turbo charged drivetrains - the XKR-S is a powerful and succinct sports car that blurs the lines between grand tourer and supercar in a delightfully British package.

Glass and trim

The glass around the vehicle is in good condition, free of any chips, scratches, or cracks, and the surrounding trims are also in good condition.

Trim around the car is limited but where present it is also in good condition and free of major damage.

Wheels and tyres

The black wheels are in good condition overall with just some minor marks to the outer lip.

Likewise the Pirelli P-Zero Tyres are in good condition and look to be free of any damage to the outside sidewalls or treads - they are DOT marked 2015 making them approximately 8 years old.

Seats and carpets

The embossed leather seats in the car are in very nice condition, with no major wear or damage to the leather on either side. The seats are both comfortable and moderately figure hugging through the corners, making them the perfect fit for the performance focused XKR-S, without sacrificing on typical Jaguar comfort and luxury.

Likewise the carpets are in good condition too, with no visible damage, stains, or colour bleaching to be seen anywhere, along with four genuine Jaguar floor mats.

Engine and gearbox

The V8 engine is the crowning jewel of the XKR-S and during our ‘On The Road’ video, it can be seen to start from cold without issue and perform flawlessly out on the road, with blisteringly quick acceleration and general all round performance.

The automatic gearbox is also in fully working order, changing gears quickly, efficiently, and smoothly without issue.

Electrics and other

During our time with the car we noted all electrical systems to be working as expected, with all interior switchgear in fully working order and all lights around the car working as expected too.

History and paperwork

Coming to market from ~2 years of ownership with current owner Michael with a clean MOT until March 2024, the XKR-S is ready to be driven, enjoyed, and cherished by its new owner.

The registration 'MVB 6' shown is not included in the sale and an age related plate will be fitted back to the vehicle before the new owner collects.

We’ve done all our usual seller checks including photo ID, V5 and also actioned a HPi check on the vehicle.

We've summarised our own view on the car based on information gained from the seller in the listing above, however, and as you can see, we go to great lengths to photograph and video the car in high resolution detail - this has been done for you to make your own assessment from the comfort of your sofa. So please sit back, have a cuppa and take your time to review everything on this listing in order to make your own assessment on the vehicle's condition. Viewings are also welcomed with all our listings, so please get in touch with us to arrange a suitable time - we just need to speak to you first and receive a valid photo ID before confirming.

If there's anything you're unsure about, no matter how small, then please first ask the owner in the comments area below before placing your bid/s, as bids can't be retracted and form a binding contract if you win the car - just like a traditional auction house.

Suspension and brakes

With 542bhp under the bonnet, stopping power is definitely important for the XKR-S and as such the brakes are not only big but capable as well, stopping the car with precision and ease during our time with the car.

The discs can be seen to be free of any major lipping or pitting, and plenty of life is left on the brake pads too.

Steering wheel gear stick

The steering wheel is in great condition, with no damaged or missing stitches, nor any damage to the leather or steering wheel controls.

The gear stick is also in good condition too.
