12 XK it's about time

Got my 12 XK and absolutely love the lines. The wide hips in the rear with growl of the exhaust makes me happy. Absolutely love the car, don't care for no Bluetooth car play, but making due. 83K om the odometer and paid 12 for it, not bad. Will enjoy beefing up suspension, PowerPlant and make this egg plant colored exotic my baby!

This "cat" always lands on it's feet!

After searching for months, this jewel fell into my lap! I have been a "Jag" junkie since I was a kid. Everything about this car was well thought out (less the rear seats). Available driving options, comfortability, handling, and exterior design is second to none! I have the convertible version which just screams sexy! Combined 5.0 litre power plant with the factory exhaust system makes this jem an absolute pleasure to drive. I personally recommend this car to everyone.

Sex on wheels

My 2012 black XKR convertible is sex on wheels, it’s as fast as you want or as slow as a Morris minor, it sounds glorious under the pump and , I love the look of envy when others see it then hear it,

Drop Dead gorgeous car!!!

Such fun to drive! Sound system is awesome even with top down! Fast, responsive, and sounds like a dream. Just LOVE this car. Interior is plush but back seat is a joke.

Most Beautiful car i've ever owned.

I have been looking to replace my 97 XK8 and have finally found a replacement! After searching for several months this car is a perfect replacement.

High performance car

Fine example of a classic British sports car. Beautiful lines, gobs of power, no room for back seat passengers with legs. Not practical for family use but provides serious driving enjoyment.

Very reliable

I’ve had my 2012 XKR a little over a 1&1/2 now. Only 39k miles. No problems really. Just a faulty TPS module. No worries though. Great car! My Aston Martin Vantage Roadster previous has better leg room but this Jaguar makes up in reliability.

Most Beautiful Coupe anywhere

This is the best car we have ever owned. It runs and looks great! Never had any problem with it. It is comfortable like a sedan but handles like a super sports car.

Beautiful, luxury and stunning performance

Looks beautiful, sounds awesome....really...awesome, great GT ride and it is 520hp, 0-60 in 4.2s. It has everything in a car you could want unless you want to haul family or stuff. I 've owned it 4 years and it has been very reliable. No issues, breakdowns, faults etc.

Fast, beautiful and classy: Jaguar XKR

Perfect sports car. Gorgeous, fast and comfortable. Looks like a $250,000 Aston Martin. Very reliable and fun to drive. Maintenance costs are minimal per year.
