About the Jaguar XJR X351
Introduced for the 2014 model year, the XJR (X351) served as the high-performance flagship of Jaguar's radical, Ian Callum-designed XJ range. It replaced the Supersport model, utilizing an uprated 550 PS version of the AJ-V8 Gen III engine paired with a bespoke-tuned ZF 8-speed transmission. Its all-aluminium construction makes it significantly lighter than German rivals, resulting in a surprisingly agile driving experience for a full-sized luxury saloon. Collectors value the XJR for its blend of traditional British luxury and aggressive, modern performance, though early models require attention to timing chain tensioners.
