Cherished Family-Owned Jaguar XJ8 Sport – Sapphire Blue, Impeccable History
We are reluctantly selling our Jaguar XJ8 as it is just not getting used. It’s been in the family for over 25 years but now needs to find a new home and a new owner to cherish it. It is a beautifully presented example of Jaguar’s X308 XJ8 Sport, finished in elegant Sapphire Metallic Blue with a refined Oatmeal leather interior.
Cherished within the same family since 2000, this car has enjoyed a lifetime of careful maintenance and sympathetic restoration. Despite its 158, 000 miles, it drives with the smoothness, poise and quiet authority that defines a true Jaguar.

A graceful and well-sorted modern classic — elegant, authentic, and ready to be enjoyed for years to come. When first registered the car was purchased from Harwoods Jaguar, Chichester. When the current owners purchased it in 2000, it came from the same dealer (original advert as part of the documentation) and returned to Chichester every year for servicing up until 2015.
