SkillanNaylor Car Company are pleased to offer this beautiful 2008 Jaguar XKR 4.2 S/C V8 2Dr Coupe Auto seen in Santorini Black Metallic with Charcoal Leather upholstery.

There are cars that simply transport you from A to B, and then there are cars like this. Our 2008 Jaguar XKR Coupe represents a chapter in Jaguar’s history that many enthusiasts believe will never be repeated — elegant, understated, beautifully engineered and powered by a glorious supercharged V8 that delivers both effortless performance and a soundtrack worthy of the famous leaping cat badge.

Finished in immaculate condition and benefiting from just 1 owner from new alongside a full service history, this XKR has clearly been cherished throughout its life. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find examples of this calibre, particularly as so many have either been heavily used or modified over the years. This one remains exactly what an XKR should be — refined, powerful and genuinely special to drive.

Under the bonnet sits Jaguar’s legendary 4.2 litre Supercharged V8 producing an impressive 420HP. Performance is still seriously rapid even by modern standards, yet the way this car delivers its power is what makes it unforgettable. Smooth, effortless acceleration combines with one of the finest V8 exhaust notes of its era to create a driving experience that feels mechanical, emotional and wonderfully analogue. Every journey feels like an occasion.

The X150 generation XKR was also hugely significant for Jaguar from an engineering perspective thanks to its advanced aluminium construction. Lightweight, incredibly rigid and beautifully balanced, it gave the car an agility and refinement that surprised many when new and still impresses today. It was a true grand tourer capable of covering huge distances in complete comfort whilst still delivering genuine performance car credentials when the road opens up.

There is also an undeniable sense that this was one of the last “real” Jaguars. Designed during a period when the brand still prioritised character, style and emotion above digital gimmickry, the XKR possesses a charisma modern performance cars often struggle to replicate. Long bonnet, muscular haunches, elegant coupe proportions and that unmistakable supercharged V8 soundtrack combine to create a car that feels increasingly rare in today’s automotive world.

Modern classics need to offer more than just nostalgia — they need presence, engineering integrity and a sense of occasion. This XKR delivers all three in abundance. A beautifully preserved example of one of Jaguar’s finest modern-era performance cars.
