Rarest Jaguar Supercar XKR Supercharged 4.0

Hello Everyone once again,

The Jaguar XK series is a series of grand tourer cars produced by British car maker Jaguar since 1996. The series was introduced in 1996. Jaguar’s rear-wheel-drive XKR earned some substantial re-engineering, including new 4.2-liter V-8 engines and a six-speed ZF automatic transmission, for 2003. Developing 390 horsepower in the high-performance XKR Series, the new supercharged V-8 replaced the previous 4.0-liter engine. Supercharged XKR models arrived for 2000.All XK models have Dynamic Stability Control to prevent wheelspin. Offered as a standard feature in the XKR, Jaguar’s Computer Active Technology Suspension consists of a two-stage adaptive ride control system that automatically selects firm or soft damping in response to driving style. Jaguar claims the XKR coupe will accelerate from zero to 60 mph in a brisk 5.2 seconds. Jaguar’s supercharged 4.2-liter dual-overhead-cam V-8 engine in the XKR coupe and convertible produces 390 hp at 6,100 rpm and 399 pounds-feet of torque at 3,500 rpm. The six-speed-automatic transmission is produced by the German ZF organization.

And now, let the pictures begin the story:
