So we got a Jaguar XKR
I believe the borrowed car I am driving right now is the only new XKR I’ve ever seen on local roads. This was our ride to the Supercar Show in Abu Dhabi, although we went on the last day of the show simply because Jaguar postponed our date with the car. It’s interesting how this car made us feel invincible. Power to excite. Handling to break backs. And looks that make pedestrians stare at us like we are celebrities.
We were banned from running this car at the track (although we don’t have track access anyway), but we still managed to push its handling limits enough to figure out how this thing handles. Too bad we couldn’t run it against our M Roadster, because it is in need of some parts to become 100%, and the useless BMW does not sell the parts I need.
More on this car and the show later.
