The Appeal
Much like its similarly styled E-Type predecessor, the Jaguar XK8 proved especially popular overseas, with most examples exported rather than remaining in the UK where they were built. Americans particularly loved the Convertible variant, buying two to every one Coupé.
And that's exactly what we have here. This 1999 XK8 Convertible reportedly began life in sunny California and has had just two former registered keepers, covering a 110,999 miles in total.
Finished in the attractive JHE Sapphire Metallic, it's a very attractive example that looks to be in very good condition for its age. the vendor notes that the last service was performed within the last 100 miles, so this offers a fantastic opportunity to European buyers. Imported to the Netherlands with all import duties and VAT paid, all that's left to do is register the Jaguar in your country of choice,
If a 4.0-litre V8 convertible British sports car with 290 hp appeals, (and why wouldn't it?) - this would be a great addition to your driveway.XK8 (15).jpg823.16 KB
