2003 Jaguar XK8 Convertible
British Racing Green with Saddle Interior 2 Owner Clean Car Fax Fully loaded Heated front seats Everything works Always garaged Brand new tires with less than 500 miles 2003 Jaguar XK8 4.2 liter with six speed automatic transmission. I purchased this car from a Mercedes Dealership and I am the second owner. I only drove this car on weekends during the Spring, Summer and Fall storing it during the winter months. The car is in great shape in and out with only some minor fading on the convertible top in two small areas. The top itself is in great shape. The interior has no rips, tears or cracks. The real wood dash is in great shape and all accessories work as they should. The leather seats are in great shape with the leather being soft a subtle. (My Wife says its the most comfortable car she has ever driven in) The car sits on four Nexen Summer performance tires installed this past spring. There are only a few very very minor scuffs on the edges of some of the rims but nothing that you would not expect from a used car and you really have to look for these very minor flaws. The car runs great, shifts smooth with no issues. The car has the factory windscreen which is a very nice option. This is a beautiful car. If you are in the market for a Jaguar XK8 I will tell you some things that you should know. The first generation of these cars up to model year 2002 were equipped with the 4.0 liter engine. This engine had some inherent internal engine flaws that needed attention. The timing chain guides were made from plastic and prone to premature failure resulting in blown engines. The repair was to change these guides with metal but this job is not covered by Jaguar and unless you are an experienced mechanic is very expensive. The thermostat was also made from plastic and again its an expensive fix and can be catastrophic if not done prior to failure. In 2003 Jaguar replaced the 4.0 liter engine with the 4.2 liter and matted it with a better preforming six speed transmission. The 4.2 has none of the issues that the 4.0 had and this is what led me to purchase this 2003 model year. I encourage all interested parties to come and see the car. The car is being sold AS IS with no warranties. The reserve has been set at a very reasonable price which was based on what recent listings have been bid up to regardless if these listings resulted in a sale. Car is for sale locally I reserve the right to end the auction anytime for any reason. Thanks for looking. |

First Ride: 2014 Jaguar F-Type [w/video]
Fri, 08 Feb 2013Shotgun In Coventry's First Sports Car In Decades
For every car, there is a passionate group of fans who love it, and the F-Type already has a few million rabid followers. These are fabulous things, sports cars, and we're very happy that Jaguar is making one again. Finally. (Before you start relishing the prospect of correcting us, the XK is really a grand tourer, not a sports car.)
The main question, however, will be whether someone in a position to buy a lifestyle-enhancing yet impractical F-Type will do so in the face of more established competitors from Porsche, Aston Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW. The last time Jaguar built a true two-seater sports car (1974 E-Type; the last of the XJ220 limited run in 1994 doesn't count in this league), most of today's new buyers were too young or may not yet have been born. At any rate, the F-Type has a lot of work to do for the brand beyond just selling itself.
Jaguar-Land Rover builds millionth vehicle at Halewood
Fri, 29 Nov 2013Jaguar-Land Rover is not what you'd call a volume automaker by any stretch of the imagination. But in the dozen years since it started manufacturing at its Halewood plant near Liverpool, England, the automaker has already built its millionth vehicle.
The landmark vehicle is a Range Rover Evoque, done up in white with red roof and mirrors, black wheels and a red and black interior. The crossover is set to be donated to Cancer Research UK, which will auction it off next year to help fund its projects in the north-west of the country.
Halewood started manufacturing the Jaguar X-Type in 2001, then went on to assemble the Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2 before taking on production of the Evoque a year and a half ago. The facility reached the 300,000-unit milestone just last year as production moved to a 24-hour cycle for the first time in either marque's history.
Jaguar considering lightweight F-Type Club Sport?
Wed, 02 Apr 2014In the market for a Jaguar F-Type? Then let us commend you, first of all, on your good taste. But you've got a difficult decision ahead of you: Do you go for the power of the V8 or the lighter weight of the V6? It's a tough call, even if the ~$30k range in price from the entry model to the flagship doesn't phase you.
Well, to make the decision easier (or potentially more difficult), Jaguar is said to be looking into yet another tempting option: that of a lightweight Club Sport model. Tipped to be based on the coupe (and not the heavier roadster), the F-Type Club Sport would allegedly shed a good 400 pounds or so off the curb weight, not so much through the removal of one component or another but through a "holistic" approach that would call on all aspects of the car to play their part in ditching excess weight. That could mean everything from carbon-fiber body panels to a stripped-out interior denuded of sound-deadening materials and creature comforts, says Auto Express.
In developing the rumored F-Type Club Sport, Jaguar is apparently facing a similar dilemma to what buyers are pondering: will it base the track-focused model on the top-of-the-line F-Type R, with its 5.0-liter supercharged V8 driving 542 horsepower to the rear set of lighweight alloys but weighing down the schnoz? Or should it try to get more power out of the lighter 3.0-liter supercharged V6, which currently nets 340 hp in base form and 380 in S spec? Let Jag know what you'd do by leaving your thoughts in Comments.
