Why it matters

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.

History

Jaguar initially offered the XKR-S GT only in North America, with sales capped at 30 units. In July 2013 it announced 10 cars for UK customers at £135,000, with first deliveries planned for October 2013, after the car lapped the Nordschleife in 7 minutes 40 seconds. It used a 550PS, 680Nm supercharged 5.0-litre V8 with a six-speed transmission and an active electronic differential.
