His appointment as Menteri Besar came in his first term as a member of the Selangor State Assembly, having been elected as the member for Sungai Panjang in the 1999 election.

In 2000, at the age of 35, he became the Menteri Besar of Selangor at the insistence of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, following the resignation of Abu Hassan Omar.

Khir subsequently served as a member of UMNO's Supreme Council and Chairman of Selangor Barisan Nasional from 2000 to 2008.

He was the Menteri Besar of Selangor until the 12th General Election in March 2008.

The state of Selangor fell to opposition hands following its worst defeat in Malaysian history.

He was succeeded by Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) secretary-general, Abdul Khalid Ibrahim.

However, he remains the state assemblyman of Sungai Panjang constituency and became Selangor opposition chief.

After the election, he ran for the leadership of UMNO Youth, but was defeated by Khairy Jamaluddin.

He resigned as the opposition leader in December 2010, after he was charged with corruption over allegations that while he was the Menteri Besar, he was sold a lavish mansion for less than its market value.
