Jaguar’s latest addition to celebrate its 75th birthday is the Jaguar XKR 75. Limited to just 75 examples, these will sell like hotcakes.

The exterior features a stunning new Stratus Grey Finish, optional body graphic runs, red brake callipers and 20-inch gloss Vortex forged lightweight alloys. The interior has been dressed up too with charcoal leather and contrasting ivory stitching. Sounds good but there’s more to the XKR 75 than a fancy finishing though. Jaguar engineers have increased the power and torque of their 5.0-litre supercharged engine to 523hp and 483lb ft respectively, to deliver even greater performance. Top speed is electronically limited to 174mph (280km/h), but the XKR 75’s 0-60mph acceleration time is reduced from 4.6 to 4.4 seconds.
