Replacing the pretty but ageing XK8, the XK was a much more modern machine, both in construction and in styling. Sharp of line, with clean design and attractive proportions, it was – and still is – a very elegant sports coupé.
Offering a compelling blend of power from its sonorous V8 engine and opulent comfort from its well-appointed interior, it makes for a very fine grand tourer.
Presented in an attractive specification and having had just two owners from new, this example has seen little use over the last few years and is now ready for a new owner to enjoy.KDUom0Z26aYP34KYaOIAB1I27JrtrdWJzXaHvY0T.jpg1.2 MB
The History and Paperwork
First registered in March 2008
Two owners from new
Current owner since September 2020
The car has only covered about 4,500 miles since June 2017
120,453 miles indicated, verified by the service and MOT record
Good history file, with a number of invoices and old MOTs
Bright red paintwork with modern, contrast black grille and trim
The paintwork has a nice shine and looks to be in fine condition, with a few blemishes, chips and marks commensurate with the age and mileage and a scratch to the rear off-side haunch
All of the body panels look straight and tidy, with no significant dings or damage
We did note some bubbling to the windscreen surround, and near-side door surround
Tinted rear windows
Underneath the floor and sills look straight and tidy, with no damage apparent, although we did note surface corrosion to the drivetrain and some of the underside bracing
20-inch alloy wheels are in reasonably good condition, with a few kerb marks to the rims, and are shod in a set of tyres that look to have good tread depth
Jaguar’s X150 series offers a modern and stylish take on their traditional grand-touring coupé formula. This example has clearly been cherished and, with its V8 soundtrack, good history and high specification, could be a very enjoyable way to cruise about this summer.
