The Jaguar XK launched in 1996 as the successor to the XJS, bringing modern performance and classic E-Type inspired lines to the brand's grand tourer. Initially offered with a 4.0L AJ-V8, the lineup expanded to include a supercharged XKR in 1998. The second-generation X150, introduced for 2007, featured a revolutionary bonded and riveted aluminum chassis which saved weight and increased structural rigidity.
Enthusiasts appreciate the XK's blend of effortless V8 power, elegant styling, and luxurious comfort, making it a compelling modern classic GT. The supercharged XKR models are particularly sought after for their significant performance increase. Special editions like the 550 hp XKR-S and the ultra-rare XKR-S GT are the most collectible variants, representing the peak of the model's performance.
The XK market offers a broad range of options, from affordable early X100 coupes to pristine, late-model X150 special editions. With over 800 sales tracked, the average price sits just under $20,000, indicating a healthy supply of driver-quality cars. The top of the market is reserved for low-mileage XKR-S models, which can exceed $100,000.
Buying Tips
- Check for updated metal timing chain tensioners on 4.0L V8s; the original plastic ones are a known failure point.
- Inspect the cooling system carefully, as water pumps and thermostat housings can fail. Look for leaks or recent replacement records.
- On X150 models, test all electronic systems, from the central touchscreen to the power convertible top, as repairs can be complex.
- Examine first-generation X100 cars for rust, particularly in the sills, floor pans, and around the wheel arches.
- For convertibles, check the hydraulic lines for the power top for leaks, which are a common issue.
Prices range from $897 for project cars to $177,500 for the most desirable, low-mileage examples.
