Looking @ 2003+ S/Type R's. Wondered if any of you have experience with these, or have information; such as, does the super charger contribute to maintenance issues, costs to operate, etc.

Appreciate your thoughts & opinions.

Hi Dave,

Up front, I don't have any direct experience with the "R" Jags.

I have a good friend who has an '05 XK-R and LOVES it.

Last August we bought a 4.2L '05 S-Type from THESE PEOPLE , here in Dallas.

It has been a wonderful car.

I send this link (click on INVENTORY at the top) for your comparison for price and availability.

Tim
