Exquisite early Jaguar XK8 4. 0 V8 finished in British Racing Green Metallic Coachwork, Cream Leather Upholstery, Burr Walnut Dashboard and Lambs Wool Tailored Carpets. Outstanding provenance and condition, they really do not come much better than this gorgeous example. Supplied new by RA Creamer, formally based close to Kensington Palace and responsible for supplying many royal vehicles to the Queen and Prince Charles. Sold to an exclusive London Postcode in Holland Park, and serviced 11 times with Jaguar Main Dealerships and a further 3 times with Jaguar Specialist. Having spent the last 13 years in Norfolk with its latest custodian, and covering just 7000 miles, it is with a very heavy heart the decision has been made to repatriate the Jaguar to a new home. Following an initial service at RA Creamer at 10. 3K, the car was then serviced at Henleys at 12. 3K and Hadley Green Jaguar then serviced the vehicle at 18. 8K, 24. 6K, 29. 2K, 32. 7K, 35. 1K, 36. 8K, 38. 8K, 43. 5K and 45. 8K. Top Flight then replaced the Secondary Timing Chain, Tensioners, Waterpump and Serviced the vehicle at 48. 2K. The well renowned and respected J Cat Independent Jaguar Specialists of Norwich went on to replace the Primary Timing Chain & Secondary Chain, along with Alloy Tensioners, Guides and Blades & Engine Service at a cost of over £1, 450 in July 2015 at 51. 4K. J Cat serviced the vehicle again in December 2022 on 54. 5K, and most recently in March 2023, renewing many suspension components, totalling in excess £1, 000.
