Basic information and History
German-imported Jaguar XK8 from the year 2000 with barely 115.000 km on the odometer. The car was brought to Sweden in 2003 and had one owner from 2007 to 2023. The 4-liter V8 with 285hp/375nm connected to a 5-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive is the perfect combination for a 2-door grand tourer. Stylish, comfortable and fast enough, perfect for nice rides during the summer! This example of classic British youngtimer with V8 also comes with good history such as fully stamped service book.
Equipment and Options
This Jaguar comes with good equipment level, including a multifunction steering wheel with cruise control, xenon lights for dark evenings, A/C for hot summer days and a CD/cassette stereo to play old Dire Straits cassettes on those long drives!
Condition
The body is described by the owner as undamaged and glass parts are in good condition. The paint has small stone chips in the front and a small paint chip on the right rear fender. The paint has cracked just above the numberplate. Moldings, emblems and chrome are in fine condition with no remarks. The original rims have marks on the left front wheel and the right rear. The tread depth of the newly installed tires is measured at 8mm.
Interior condition looks good. Stylish wooden interior combined with black leather. The leather seating looks fine but has the usual wear and tear from getting in and out of the vehicle. Dashboard and panels are in good condition. The inner ceiling is unfortunately sagging, but according to the owner, a new one costs approx. £180. The electronics in the car work without any complaints and the controls and buttons are in good condition. No updates or renovations have had to be done on the inside of the car.
Mechanically, the car is in good condition. The owner informs that the engine and gearbox are in very good condition, as are the brakes. The chain tensioner has been replaced on the vehicle, which is often an occurring problem with this model. Everything looks tidy and clean beneath the bonnet. No leakage can be spotted.
Service history
The vehicle comes with full-service history and documents can be viewed in pictures. The last service was carried out by Ucars Eslöv on 07/31/2023.
Summary
British grand tourer from the 00s in a nice color combination, with low mileage and fully stamped service book. Perfect entry into Jaguar's fantastic model range!
