The Appeal
From its sleek, evocative lines, reminiscent of the classic E-Type, to clever details like the ‘ Spitfire fighter wing’ dashboard - because these cars were built in the aircraft’s former factory - the XK8 is a striking and stirring convertible.
This car spent much of its life in the USA in the hands of just three keepers, much of it in dry Florida state. It arrived in the Netherlands in 2020. The CARFAX report confirms the history and shows it was last serviced less than 1,300 miles ago.
Finished in the popular colour scheme of silver over black, this is 290bhp V8 is perfectly designed for summer weekend drives or longer cross-continental road trips.
