This 2004 Jaguar XJ8 is low mileage for the year model at less than 59000 miles. It is is in good cosmetic condition, especially for a 9 year old car. We have owned the car for about 2 years. We enjoy driving it and hate to sell, but it is an extra vehicle for us now. The car runs strong and shifts smooth. The tires are only a couple months old with remaining warranty through Discount Tire. It has the typical smooth ride expected from these XJs with air suspension. I have 1 key/remote.
The car is mechanically sound and has no issues that I am aware of. I have performed all the services and routine maintenance myself. It has auto tilt wheel for easy entry and exit. It also has adjustable pedals. Both front seats are power with adjustable air lumbar. The headlights are auto on/off and the wipers are automatic rain sensing. The stereo is the base system with single cd player. The "air suspension fault" has come on before a few times due to a front ride height sensor, but the suspension and air compressor and all aspects of the suspension system function properly. The light goes out on its own, so I haven't addressed it other than to find out what was causing the fault.
Cosmetically, this Jaguar is very nice. Though it has been driven and is 9 years old, so it is not perfect. I have taken close up pictures of all the flaws I can find and posted them in this auction. The paint is shiny with a few minor chips and scratches here and there. Clear coat is peeling a little on the passengers side mirror. The windshield has one minor reairable rock chip at the bottom center. The rear bumper has a few scratches on the right rear corner that are hardly visible. Please see the attached pictures for all other minor flaws.
Please contact me with any questions.
This Jaguar is for sell in Fredericksburg, TX locally as well. The winning bidder will be resposible for picking the car up here, or arrange for shipping within 7 days of the end of this auction. I will except a $500 deposit through Paypal within 2 days of the end of auction. I have clear title in hand and will except a cashiers check for the remaining amount.

Which is hotter, Lana Del Rey or the Jaguar F-Type?
Fri, 15 Feb 2013Lana Del Rey's "Burning Desire" video, the first musical collaboration between Jaguar and its hired songstress, is half music video, half long-form lifestyle commercial for the 2014 F-Type. If you like Del Rey channeling glamorous fifties fame as she lays down vocals of sensuous, languid dolor over images of black-and-white yesteryears, you'll like this song off of her new EP, Paradise.
We think the appearance of a red and brand-new Jaguar, though, is incongruous - either Del Rey or Jaguar is the anachronism, take your pic. That's not to say it's not beautiful, however, so enjoy the combination in the video below.
Jaguar design boss admits X-Type was a mistake
Thu, 19 Sep 2013History has a way of repeating itself, especially in the auto industry. When Jaguar was owned by Ford, the British brand attempted to field a competitor for the BMW 3 Series, called the X-Type. Based on the bones of a Ford Mondeo, it aped the styling of Jaguar's flagship model, the XJ, while borrowing liberally from the Ford parts bin. That was 2001.
Now, in 2013, Jaguar is planning a new 3 Series challenger based on the platform previewed by the C-X17 Concept, while Ford is attempting to take the latest Mondeo upmarket. The moves have both brands recognizing where, why, and how the X-Type failed. "It didn't look mature or powerful or anything. It was just a car," Jaguar's current head of advanced design, Julian Thomson, told PistonHeads. Basing the X-Type on a front-drive car while giving it styling that was meant for a rear-driver lead to proportions that "were plainly wrong," Thomson told PH. Ford's European head of quality, Gunnar Herrmann, added that the X-Type was "a fake Jaguar, because every piece I touch is Ford."
For what it's worth, the X-Type's successor in the segment will sport rear-drive, with plenty of input from Ian Callum. Thomson described the new model, which would challenge the 3 Series as having, "Big wheels right to the ends of the car, low bonnet, short overhangs, very low cabins." Sounds good to us.
Can a Jaguar XKR-S be drifted while blindfolded?
Thu, 27 Dec 2012Bring together a 550-horsepower Jaguar XKR-S and a rain-soaked skidpad, and it's almost impossible to not end up in a sideways drift... accidental or on purpose. With that in mind, the gang over at Autocar got a hold of the monstrous XKR-S for the latest installment of "Will it Drift?," only they raised the stakes a little by attempting the feat with a blindfolded driver
We've driven the XKR-S a number of times here at Autoblog (including a First Drive, Review and Quick Spin), so we weren't at all surprised to learn that blind drifting in the car is possible. But what is remarkable is the ease at which it happened. This, of course, can be credited as much to the car as to the driver, Steve Sutcliffe. Check out the impressive video for yourself, which is posted after the jump.
