Jaguar's ultra exclusive XKR 100


Jaguar's ultra exclusive XKR 100 was built to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Sir William lyons' birth, meant that it had to be more than a mere marketing ploy. The Jaguar XKR 100 is arguably the most desirable version of the XK8/R model which has everything so amazing, especially it's aesthetically pleasing design with Leather Recaro sports seats, 20 inch R Performance ‘Montreal’ BBS alloy wheel, and the perfect engineering with some new features like innovative adaptive cruise control [ACC].
Jaguar XKR 100 is superb in acceleration as its 370bhp and 386lb ft are delivered with fineness. Road holding is amazingly good and it's really easy to steer, definitely a firm controlled ride. Any XKR still draws admiring looks wherever it goes, but even more so in limited edition '100' guise. Mean, sleek and powerful looking, but you must like black. Very much a classic car in the making – the XKR 100 is, after all, a car that replaced the Jaguar XJ-S.
