XJR number plate included in sale4 new wheelsHPI ClearSubject to 6.5% + VAT Buyers feesSupercharged, understated and effortlessly quick, the 1998 Jaguar XJR remains one of Jaguar’s finest modern classics.

Blending old-school craftsmanship with serious performance. History & BackgroundIntroduced in 1997, the X308-generation XJR took Jaguar’s luxury saloon formula and injected it with real muscle.Its all-new AJ-V8 engine received an Eaton supercharger, and an electronically limited top speed.

The result was a big performance saloon capable of both B-road poise and long-distance comfort.Mechanicals4.0-ltr (3996cc) supercharged AJ-V8Approx.
