Is the Jaguar Xkr ULEZ Compliant?
Based on 8,781 MOT tests, around 57% of Jaguar Xkrs still on the road are likely to meet London's ULEZ standards, and about 15% are likely to be charged. For the remaining 28%, it depends on the exact Euro standard or month of registration.
The fuel mix matters: tested cars were 100% petrol. Petrol Xkrs are generally compliant from 2006, while petrol cars from 2000 or earlier are likely to be charged.

Buying a used Jaguar Xkr for London: what the MOT data shows
The Jaguar Xkrs in this data were first registered between 1998 and 2012. 2007 was the most common year, with 1,285 tests (15% of the total), and half were registered in 2007 or later.
Xkrs from likely-compliant years passed their MOT first time 78% of the time, at an average of 64,302 miles. Older ones likely to be charged passed 76% of the time with 84,578 miles on average.
On a budget, the oldest petrol Xkrs likely to comply are from 2006. 391 of them were tested; 2006 cars passed first time 73% of the time and averaged 72,996 miles. Check the Euro standard on the V5C before you buy one from around then.
Whichever year you choose, check the Xkr's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were suspension: "ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt" (3.2% of tests); lights and electrics: "not working" (2.1%); visibility: "does not clear the windscreen effectively" (1.6%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 11.4% of tests.
Overall, 76% of Xkrs passed first time, noticeably above the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 71,557 miles on average, close to the 73,145-mile average.
