After spotting a first gen green-bottle XKR the day before, I saw this (so !) pure XKR ! After doing a hundred pics, I asked a man (who was preparing his bar terrace) if he knew the owner : it was him ! He explained to me that he bought it new (this car is from 2004, he changed the plates because of reglementation) and that this is a special series dedicated to France called "Spirit of Legend", and limited to 50 cars, who explained the presence of the special badge in front of the car (according to this page : https://www.motorlegend.com/actualite-automobile/jaguar-xk-4-2-s/847.html ). He showed me the certificate of authenticity : he has the number 1 of 50 ! He also said that he changed the wheels who were previously the same as "basic" 4.2-S, that he made 220k km with this beauty and the only problems he had with were about the electronic principally. But, honestly, who cares when you drive such a british lady ? Then he started of the car. What a pleasure it was earing a motor who sounds like a flying carpet ! Big thanks to him for the lil discussion we had ! Spotted on April, 14th.
