Comments from the dealer
1998 JAGUAR XJR X308 — BRITISH RACING GREEN, 26 YEARS OF SINGLE OWNERSHIP, FACTORY SUNROOF & EXCEPTIONAL ORIGINAL CONDITION. 310,829 KILOMETRES.
An extraordinary example of the iconic supercharged Jaguar XJR, finished in classic British Racing Green with a beautiful cream leather interior. Carefully maintained by the same owner for the past 26 years, this vehicle has been exceptionally well preserved and presents in a condition that genuinely needs to be seen to be appreciated. Traded directly into our dealership against another vehicle in stock, this is a remarkable find for anyone who appreciates these classic British performance sedans.
Powered by Jaguar's legendary 4.0-litre supercharged V8 producing 276kW, the XJR was the flagship performance model of the X308 range. Complete with its factory electric sunroof, original Jaguar alloy wheels, woodgrain interior trim and beautifully preserved leather upholstery, everything remains fully functional. Importantly, the vehicle has undergone a comprehensive mechanical inspection through our workshop, passing with excellent results.
Finding an X308 XJR in this condition today is exceptionally difficult, regardless of kilometres. After nearly three decades, most surviving examples simply do not present anywhere near this standard. With 26 years of careful ownership, its classic British Racing Green colour combination and remarkable preservation, we genuinely believe this is one of the finest examples still in existence. An opportunity that will be impossible to replicate.

- British Racing Green Paintwork
- Cream Leather Interior
