I had a 4.2 XK and then changed to a 5.0 XKR - there is a significant performance difference between the two. Fuel consumption is noticeably different too. Would I go back to a 4.2 ------absolutely no way ..... having way too much fun. 

Seriously though - it depends on what you will use the car for. When I had the 4.2, it was my daily runner and went everywhere throughout europe. My 5.0 is used for pleasure driving only - not sure I would be prepared to use it as a daily runner - just a little too expensive on fuel for me.

Either way - they are both fantastic cars  

I have just bought a 2014 XKR 5.0 ltr and it has a 6 speed box and it also goes like stink. I also have a RangeRover Sport Firenze red 2013 3.0 lt and a Porsche 911 996 1999 Carrera 2 and the KXR is way faster than the porsche.

Driving dow to Spain in it come July and looking forward to it
