The Appeal
Elegance, poise and grace, the fantastic Jaguar XJ8 V8 has everything that you need under one roof.
The outstanding 3.2 V8 engine, the black, leather interior and that infamous badge, that is instantly recognisable wherever you go.
The History and Paperwork
- MOT until March 2023
- Original, Correctly Registered V5
The Interior
- Original Interior
You open the door and find the luxurious, black leather interior which is in really good condition considering the age of the car.
In the 90’s Jaguar were regarded as a ‘luxury’ brand and this shows in the quality of the 24 year old interior. The seats have very little wear on them (with exception of the usual edging on the seats that is caused by “shuffling” onto the seat).
The rear seats look like they have never been sat in, the dashboard is, as you would expect well equipped and in good condition.
Everything works as it should (the radio does say that it requires a radio code, however the owner has said that they are sorting this out ready for when the car is sold). The kick plates are a little worn, especially the nsf and nsr doors.

The Exterior
- 87,500 Miles
- Underside recently rust proofed
The unusual Spindrift White makes this Jaguar stand out.
You don’t see many of these cars in this colour and with a shade over 500 of these V8 Jaguar’s left on the road currently (according to how many left.com) which has decreased from over 3,000 in the last 10 years, it is rapidly becoming even rarer.
There are a few points to raise, regarding the bodywork. The normal door chips and bonnet chips as you would expect, the roof has blistering over it and the rear door has paint flaking off it, which would require attention.

The Mechanics
- MOT till March 2023
- Correctly registered with matching vin plate
During photographing there were no untoward noises, smoke or leaks that were visible.
The car started first time, everything without hesitation and the engine ticks over nicely.
The owner has mentioned that on the last MOT the MOT person wrote that there was corrosion on the underside of the car, however, the owner thinks that the person carrying out the MOT was “overzealous” with that statement, and since has apparently ‘’ barred and undersealed the underneath with both subframes suffering just a little bit of surface rust’’

Summary
This car does seem like a nice genuine example.
Yes it requires a little bit of tlc, but with a bit of knowhow, it could continue to make easy work of motorway miles. Furthermore, it also would make a lovely wedding car and wouldn’t take much to get it to that standard where you could be part of someone’s special day.
The lovely V8 seems like it has many more miles to explore and will gladly take you wherever you’d like to go, with a whirl of V8 goodness.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
