The Appeal

Big Jaguar saloons really came of age when the new XJ8 range was launched, still using fine quality leather and wood trim inside, the range now used the V8 engine for added refinement and performance, whilst maintaining that fabulously smooth and comfortable Jaguar ride.

Now very much a modern-day classic, the Jaguar XJ8 offers plenty of grace, space and pace.

The Interior

  • All original full leather interior
  • Electric windows, seats and sunroof
  • Cruise control
  • Air conditioning
  • CD auto-changer
Inside the luxurious cabin of the XJ8 there’s plenty of leather and wood to be found that is all in particularly good condition with only the leather seats showing any real obvious sign wear with the rest of the interior looking clean and very presentable.

Door cards, carpets and headlining are all good with the sunroof working smoothly and the air conditioning providing plenty of ice-cold air.

The Exterior

  • Emerald Green Metallic paint
  • Alloy wheels with good tyres
The paintwork although still in mostly good condition has a few areas where it would benefit from some attention. The bumpers at both ends of the car are fairly badly scratched and there is some light damage to the passenger side rear door and rear wheel arch. Elsewhere on the car there are some stone chips and some light scratches but what a picture this car would be when those small irritations have been sorted out.

The wheels and tyres all look good and all the rubber seals and trim all look in great order, which is a look continued under the bonnet where the engine bay is very clean and nicely presented.

The Mechanics

  • Considerable service history from Jaguar
  • Recent major service
  • Recent tyres
Starting easily and quickly purring like a big Jaguar V8 should do, the car is reported to drive very nicely with no obvious issues to report or advise on.

Fully serviced only last July, the car has done very little mileage since and offers the next owner real turnkey motoring.

The Summary

The Jaguar XJ8 delivers great executive luxury and extreme comfort to all its occupants and is certainly a car worth considering as your first or next classic car.

The safest way to buy a classic car online

About Max Bids

The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.

Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.

Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.

Auto-bidding increments

  • If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
  • If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
    • Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
    • We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Bid Amount Increment
£0 to £9,999 £100.00
£10,000 to £49,999 £250.00
£50,000 to £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Automatically outbid immediately

When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.

You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.

Matching max bids

When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.

Pre-authorisation

We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.

What are pre-bids?

A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.

Problem with your bid

Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
