The XKR is a touring car, not a race car. People often get caught up in statistics when evaluating cars in this category. The XKR is heavier than other sports cars so it is slower in 0-60 times and around a track. You do get something though from the weight - leather and wood everywhere. Sitting in an XKR is a thrill in itself let alone driving it. And it is plenty fast with 400bhp. There are some quirks and design flaws on the XKR that you wouldn't find on a German car but the XKR seethes passion unlike its rivals. It is gorgeous to look at and a very rare car, the coupe especially; people will stare. In short, when I feel like getting out of town for a weekend, this car is perfect.

The 03' XKR coupe coupled with the 20" wheels and the Brembro brake kit makes this car one the most appealing car on the road. In the past I had a 01' XKR coupe and I've noticed hardly any differeces on the 03' car except cosmetics. The 400Hp gives the exact same result of the 01'.
Awesome British motoring

Owning one of these Jags is like owning a piece of history. Most people don't realize that the XJ and XK series are still hand assembled over in Conventry. All the leather and woodwork is still done by hand! Only the British can produce something so beautiful. I can't tell you how many people have come up to me on the street to comment on it's beauty (can you blame them?) I am very impressed with Jaguar's realiability improvements. I don't have to pay for anything for 4 years, not even oil changes! I absolutely love this car and seeing them made in England has made me a fanatic. I would highly recommend a tour in Coventry for all of you Jag lovers.

OK, so I'm biased. I'm a Brit, work both in the US and the UK - but the XKR is the second I've had - and the 2003 model is my latest purchase for my UK travels. I've driven stacks of different and very nice cars - but something just keeps me in these Jaguars. Perhaps it's the feeling that any moment the waiter will come over and ask if sir would care for another Pimm's.. All that leather and walnut combined with neck snapping acceleration make this a seriously quick tool for demolishing distances in style, grace and comfort. I guess (proudly) it's something that us Brits still do well
