The Jaguar XK8 is recognised for its combination of performance and comfort. Calling back to the heyday of the E-Type, the XK8 offered everything a 'Big Cat' enthusiast could ask for in an impressive and highly responsive roadster. This specific model, being one of the last produced, signifies the peak of the XK8's development.
Fitted with the larger 4.2 litre V8 engine, providing sufficient power while preserving the smooth and comfortable ride that the XK8 is recognised for, the later XK8s are often regarded as the most desirable. With a relatively low mileage on the clock and only four former registered keepers, this car has undeniably been pampered, and should attract plenty of interest.
