Why Have I Sold One Of The Best Cars I Ever Had? Jaguar XK

[@nicholasdavis657]

Glad you enjoyed your time with the XK. I have the same car, a 2007 model with about 85k miles on it. I've had it for 6 years now and I really love it and just can't think of a good reason to change it!

[@stevemawer848]

I thought that way about my 2010 XKR but after 5 years the F-Type itch finally won! 🙂

[@johnbeckett2624]

I think you should keep the Jaguar theme going with an XJR but with the later X350 aluminium bodied car with the 4.2 supercharge engine I have owned one of these for almost 3 years and am very happy with it, it out performs pretty much anything I meet on the road anywhere, if you are ever in the North Suffolk area near the coast you are welcome to come and give it a try, Jack😃

This past May I bought an F-Type, a 2016 3.0 S manual transmission coupe. Quite a car, it has all the options, is triple black and has very good presence. 380 HP is more than enough for the hilly and twisty New Hampshire USA roads where I live. I'm interested in getting an x358 Xj Vanden Plas to join it.

It's good to see Jack blowing the myth of Jaguars being expensive money pits, though if too many people see it the used values might not be such a great bargain any more.

[@GetOffMyyLawn]

I purchased a 2011 XK in 2015. At that time, I paid around $32k for the car with about 47k miles. I have had a few minor issues over the years, oil level sensor and bad led brake light unit. The biggest repair was for a stuck fuel injector where it made sense to replace all 8, and the spark plugs. The only current issues are a sagging headliner (fabric on the way) and the same water leak in the trunk (need to spend some time to track it down). After 9 years of ownership, the car still feels special every time I drive it... and every time I think about selling it... I can't find anything comparable. N/A V8, RWD, heated and cooled (not just ventilated) seats, leather everywhere... its a tough act to follow.

[@paulhart1218]

The 5.0 litre naturally aspirated facelift version is the sweet spot in the range. Power almost identical to the 4.2 supercharged but with worthwhile updates. Had mine for a year and still loving it.

[@samhunt8240]

The 5.0 engine isn't as good as the 4.2. It has timing chain issues and to really make things spicy sometimes it can drop a valve seat into the cylinder. The 4.2 though, is bullet proof.

[@adrianfowles7250]

@@samhunt8240 Other way around - It was the 4.2 that had the timing chain and water pump issues that got fixed later. Its well know that the 5.0 is a better & stronger engine.

[@samhunt8240]

@@adrianfowles7250 I don't know where you are getting your information from but it's not the other way round at all. I work at a Jaguar specialist and the 5.0 engine is far more problematic with the issues I have said. Fuel injectors are common problem on them as well.

[@stephendavies6949]

Yep. Totally agree

[@markguppy2715]

That's the exact conclusion I came to when I bought mine. Had it 2.5 years and it's been fantastic (it's going to be on fire when I look at it on the drive now). Plenty of power and so comfortable. To make the Jag info system slightly more tolerable I bought a Bovee 1000 for phone connectivity.

[@marpass8763]

Twelve years ago I bought a black Xkr registered in 2008. black leather interior, black dashboard. It had all original Jaguar services, 25,000 miles and official Jaguar recalls had been issued. Now it has 42,000 miles, I always had it serviced in the official Jaguar garages and the car still runs very well, engine with good power and, despite being a sports car, it is a comfortable car. Two defects due to the poor quality of construction materials and accessories : the pedestrian protection system which is positioned under the bonnet went off, the compressor of the air conditioning system broke, despite the low mileage, the engine oil sump started to leak oil, the fabric of the internal covering of both the roof and the pillars which came off four years ago, and the lights that illuminate the license plate which came off from the rear bonnet when I lowered it to close it. However, my overall opinion regarding my 2008 Xkr is good, probably also because I drive this car very little, and therefore it still has low mileage. I will only sell it when spare parts will be no longer available in Italy and it will be no longer possible to repair it. I still like it today as much as the first day.

[@mikeroz6549]

Seen a number of people saying X350 XJR. I'd love you to get one of those next. Should be easy to find one for £7k or under. Keep up the excellent content Jack. 👍

[@tedgeldberg6498]

As I've previously commented, I like your taste in cars as I have both a De Tomaso Pantera like you and I've a 2010 Jaguar XKR. I told you when you first purchased your XK that you would love it, and even though you had it for only a very short time, it seems that you did like it very much. Your next car ought to be the next progression in the line, a 5.0L XKR. First off, the power of the 5.0L supercharged car is astonishing in comparison to the 4.2L naturally aspirated version.. And if for about a $1000, you add a reputable tune and pulley, you are pushing 600hp and the stoplight races with the Porsche you mentioned will belong to you. The 5L XKR is still no light weight sports car, but is so much fun in a civilized comfortable package. I could sell my gorgeous Pantera in a minute given the right price, but I will never sell my XKR as long as I can still drive, it's been that good! And I have 209,968 miles on my car as of the end of this evening, and it's still that good and enjoyable. And by the way, it will outperform your Pantera as I learned in my experience, and which is why I stopped driving mine for several years until the goodness of the Jag forced me to make the Pantera an all around better car. You will miss the package that the X150 offers, and my guess is that you'll be back in an R version sometime soon. I predicted your Pantera ownership, and I'm predicting you'll take the plunge with an XKR. I'm 11 years into mine and would not ever want to be without it. Good luck with whatever you choose.

[@jamespatrinos4708]

Great review that I stumbled across as I am interested in an XK. A suggestion for your next car could be something from AMG. I'm sure there are plenty out there that are in a reasonable price band, but the cost of ownership may be a different matter altogether!

[@philipmulville8218]

Brilliant channel, Jack. Of course get another Jag!

[@robertmellor7059]

E34 are so hard to come by, they've all rusted away. Why not look at E39 Alpinas, both the B10 (V8 and 6cyl) variants are out there and both really interesting propositions for something a little special/unusual but with mostly 5 series parts still so not crazy to run.

[@leccybadger]

Seconded. The E34 is a fantastic motor however parts are scarce and in some cases non existent. The E39 makes a more sensible option, 530i Sport for me, avoid the V8 cos it's just not that good...

[@MarcosCodas]

In my personal experience (maybe I just don't buy well), old BMWs really like getting repaired. They are immensely unique in what they offer, but they require too much maintenance for my taste.

[@FROOB202]

For me the 4.2s always look a bit pedestrian to me in the pictures but every time I see one in person I certainly take a second look, especially in that light blue colour! The big benefit of the 4.2 is the fact a small number of them slipped into the old £395 tax bracket!

[@jamescameron314]

I had a (caviar) 5 litre XK and found it tended to "run away" with me! I changed it for an XJ diesel which is to all intents and purposes just as fast and much more satisfying to own, especially in the colour combination of silver, with parchment seats, wood rim steering wheel and CLEAR windows, instead of the near ubiquitous blacked out ones from B post backwards. It is simply a delicious car and so very much more practical than the XK. I cannot recommend the XJ too highly !

[@matthewdavidpope]

Shame the ended production

[@davidmarle]

I was going to suggest you could try this car's direct competitor, some would say close cousin, the Aston Martin DB7 but I doubt they can be found in good condition in the same budget. The predecessor of these cars, the XJS or the successor, the F-Type would be nice too as a way to see how they progressed but the budget might be tight on both. Whatever you go for I wish you good luck with the next one!

I suggest, to US buyers, that they opt for an XK with the 5.0 litre, but skip the supercharged version. I have driven them all, and the best daily drivers (and easier on your pocket book) are the normally aspirated vehicles with the larger engines.

Previous car was a BMW 640d which was a great car but didn’t have the V8 engine note! For you what about a Maserati 4200? Plenty sub £10k and low mileage and what an engine!!!

[@gmggunnarson8300]

Lovely Jaguar and please get another Jaguar !

[@ianmarks4481]

I live in Arizona, where older Jaguars are somewhat rare, and drive a 2007 XKR. I think that in buying a high-mileage, plain-Jane XK, you've missed out on a great deal of motoring pleasure. The true "sweet spot" is the supercharged 4.2-litre, which offers superlative performance combined with outstanding reliability. My car, with approximately 66k miles on it, has required absolutely no repairs in the nearly two years I've owned it. Of course, this in part is due to my buying a very well cared-for example. My understanding is that the 5.0-litre, despite its impressive power output, is somewhat more problematic (although there may still be one in my future). I'm aghast to think that your next car might be some boxy, soulless BMW. I suspect that with Jags being more commonplace in England, you simply don't see them for the gems that they are.

[@Alphachanel]

They really are a great car, I bought one ('06 model) with the intention of keeping it a year so I could say I've had a V8 then move it on... several years and 69K miles later (it's now clocking in at just over 162K) I've still got it (and I really missed it while it was off the road getting a replacement radiator). Of course with that kind of mileage it's virtually worthless so I'm keeping it. As for replacement? Heart over head I'd say, the one time I bought a car with my head it turned out to be the shortest time I've ever owned a car (nothing wrong with it generally but I hated the damned thing all the same). So go with the XJR if that's what's taking the fancy.
