Stunning 2001 Jaguar XK8 4. 0 V8 Convertible – Facelift Model & Collector Quality
Introduction
Introducing a breathtaking and meticulously maintained Jaguar XK8 4. 0 Convertible, presented in a highly desirable and sophisticated color combination: deep Black Metallic paired with a luxurious red leather interior.
Originally delivered in Germany, this Jaguar was imported to the Netherlands in 2006. It has been cherished and kept in absolute top condition. The previous owner enjoyed the car for 7 years, maintaining it to the highest standards, after which we sold it to its last owner in early 2025. As a 2001 model, this XK8 benefits from the sought-after factory facelift updates.
Condition
This convertible is in exemplary, near-mint condition. The paintwork around the vehicle is flawless, and the luxurious leather interior feels and looks like new. It is an exceptionally clean car with little to no signs of wear, reflecting the true pride of ownership of its past caretakers.
The Drive
From the moment you turn the key, it is evident that this Jaguar has been maintained without compromise. The handling is tight, solid, and refined. The powerful V8 engine runs whisper-quiet yet delivers effortless performance when called upon. The automatic transmission—which was recently flushed—shifts seamlessly. This is a magnificent and rare specimen, ready to offer its next owner endless hours of open-top touring accompanied by that glorious V8 soundtrack.
Maintenance & History
This XK8 comes with a comprehensive history file, including various maintenance documents and mileage records. Both the Carfax and the Dutch NAP report verify that the mileage is fully accurate and transparent.
The previous owner had the car serviced and inspected exclusively by Jaguar specialists. Crucially, the timing chain tensioners have been checked and upgraded to the modified versions.
Recent service items include:
Engine oil & filters
Thermostat
Stabilizer links
2 new brake calipers
New battery
Bonus: This beautiful XK8 has recently been professionally polished and protected with a high-end glass/ ceramic coating, ensuring a deep gloss and long-lasting protection.
