1997 Jaguar Xk8 Base Convertible 2-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Upland, California, United States

Lots of pictures below This sexy XK8 is ready to drive away. It runs and drives great, and everything works. Under 83,000 miles. Body is excellent, interior is very good. Great color combination for a sports car, Arrest-Me (Carnival) Red with Cream interior. Chrome wheels are excellent. Kumho tires have less than 1000 miles on them. The suspension is very tight, no clinks, clanks, creaks, cracks, thunks or thuds when you hit a bump. Transmission is very smooth, as is the engine. No leaks. Timing chain tensioners were replaced in 2009 at about 67,000 miles, along with lots of other work. I have a receipt ($8500) that will go with the car. It has an aftermarket front grill. It looks great, but if you don't like it, it is held on by a few screws. It also has an aftermarket rear spoiler. I like it, but if you don't it is held on by double sided tape. Should be easy to remove. It comes with 2 keys, and 2 remotes. No manuals, but you can download them for free online. If you have any questions or would like to see pictures of anything I didn't include, just let me know. I can help with domestic or international shipping, at your expense, of course. The car is available for inspection, but by appointment. I'm not always around. Payment: If you want to take the car immediately, I require cash or wire transfer. If you want to wait for it to clear, I will take a cashier's check. The bank can hold a cashier's check for up to 10 business days. A $500 deposit is required within 48 hours after the end of the auction. You can use paypal. California residents must add 8% Sales Tax to the final purchase amount. Reserve is very reasonable for this car. Please don't ask me what it is. Let's just say it's way lower than the repair bill mentioned above. This car is sold AS-IS

Jaguar's XFR-S Sportbrake looks to be one hot kinschlepper
Tue, 23 Jul 2013This is the Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake, which is too cool for North American sale (the Sportbrake, not the XFR-S sedan, which we're getting soon). Like the XFR-S four-door, it has a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 pumping out around 550 horsepower.
Our spy photographer's x-ray vision is saying that a ZF eight-speed automatic will be the gearbox of choice for the XFR-S wagon, which fits with the sedan, as well. The Sportbrake also has the usual high-performance touches, with huge air intakes in the front fascia, big wheels wrapped in low-profile tires, a dropped suspension and a rear end that's wearing a diffuser and a pair of meaty, quad exhausts. We're happy to see that the XFR-S Sedan's rear spoiler - or some iteration thereof - isn't here to mangle the Sportbrake's beautiful shape.
Where the this super-fast hauler will debut remains a question. There's virtually zero chance of it arriving at an American auto show (although we do endorse that, and any other decision that brings this wagon to our shores), which likely means it'll be in Europe. The Frankfurt Motor Show and Geneva Motor Show seem like the leading contenders, but we'll just have to wait and see.
Chris Harris finds the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe rather drifty
Wed, 26 Mar 2014Our own Matt Davis may have called the new Jaguar F-Type R Coupe "one heady rascal," but our review was disappointingly short on drifting, tire smoke and general, English shenanigans. You know, the sort of things that Chris Harris from Drive excels at.
Actually, relative to Harris' other reviews, this one is rather serious. There's a good recap of the F-Type on the road, with Harris referencing the car's "great bottom" and "amazing ass," quite frequently. Surprisingly, Harris says the more powerful F-Type R is just "incrementally" faster than the 495-horsepower F-Type V8 S Convertible. Following the on-road portion, it's off to the track. You can probably predict what goes on there. Overall, aside from some quibbles, Harris has nothing but praise for the newest cat.

Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships
Thu, 29 Nov 2012Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.
