The Appeal
The X308 continues to garner adoration. Traditionally styled, with a handsome silhouette and a plush cabin, they have a fanbase like few others, with dedicated owners and a touch of sporting appeal underneath all of the creature comforts. With its 4.0-litre V8 and five-speed automatic, the XJ8 remains one of the most rewarding and comfortable ways to travel in classic Jaguar style.
This example has been in the hands of a single devoted keeper since May 2002, when it was acquired directly from Jaguar. Over the ensuing 24 years, it has been cherished as a high-days-and-holidays car, maintained regardless of cost by marque specialists. The vendor states that both the exterior and interior present in very good order, noting that the car has always been hand-washed and polished. Recent preventative work includes welding and Waxoyling to the sills by a marque specialist.
Accompanying the car is an impressive history file - which we're told is approx. two inches thick - along with a comprehensive spreadsheet documenting every journey, refuelling, and maintenance activity since purchase. For those seeking a carefully kept, single-owner XJ8 with thorough documentation, this is a compelling proposition.image.png1.56 MB
