Spy Shots: Jaguar XKR-based prototypes wander the English countryside - Click above for high-res image gallery</div>
<br />
<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/jaguar/">Jaguar</a> testers have just been caught running around the British countryside with a pair of camouflaged <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/xk">XK</a> coupes. One looks to be the upcoming facelifted <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/xkr">XKR</a>, while the other appears to be a mysterious - and as-yet unnamed - more powerful XKR variant.<br />
<br />
Rumor has it that this super XKR could be named the XK-E in honor of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/01/26/jaguar-e-type-turning-50-doesnt-look-a-day-over-25/">50th anniversary of Jaguar's legendary E-Type</a>. We really only know two things about it at the moment: it's based off the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/16/report-hotter-jaguar-xkr-confirmed/">530-horsepower XKR Goodwood Special</a>, and we're dying to see it in Jaguar's booth at the upcoming <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/geneva-motor-show/">2011 Geneva Motor Show</a>.<br />
