Jaguar XKR Cabrio

L'histoire de cette pièce de collection...
This cat is not one of Joe’s, but an absolute king. -
A long-stretched coupé style with a convertible roof, beautiful lines, a big V8 with a supercharger in the nose and rear-wheel drive. We as enthusiasts notice that we cannot think of much comparable in terms of budget technology that gives the same ‘supercar’ feeling. The already well-known 5.0 is a father of the SVR Range Rover branch, which with 900 kilos more, also knows how to move like a fire brigade!
Thanks to the twin-vortex supercharger, the two water-cooled intercoolers and direct injection under high pressure, Jaguar managed to squeeze no less than 110 HP more out of the 'R' block, making it a scandalous spectacle every time you 'accidentally' step on the gas in the tunnel on the A9. Jaguar had also made enormous gains in internal friction, which would reduce fuel consumption. We have to assume the latter, because when used for what it was made for, it still drinks like an average German at Oktoberfest.
Our Jaguar XKR Cabrio? As it should be! 41,000 kilometers, second owner, fully dealer maintained and almost completely original. Her limiter has only been removed, which means she can easily exceed 300 kilometers per hour. Topless, of course. See you soon?
