Description
This beautiful XK8 lived an easy life near Carmel, California. It was a one-owner until 2022 when a local client of ours acquired it. Still showing only 43K mlles and looking great in its original Sapphire Blue with Ivory leather, the XK8 will be a great cruiser at a very affordable price point.
Equipped with all the Jaguar comfort & convenience features including a power top with heated glass window, the car is a treat to drive. It has just had a new windshield installed, plus new plugs, coil packs and more. Jaguars are more than just a pretty face, too, sporting a silky-smooth quad-cam, 48-valve 4-liter V8 and 5-speed (Mercedes-sourced) automatic transmission. The Navy Blue top has an upholstered, insulated headliner for quiet trips enjoying the factory-optional ($4200!) Alpine sound system. Paint meter readings from 4. 5 to 6. 5 indicate the car has original, factory paint.
The elegant burled-walnut dash is free from surface cracks and the leather on the heated seats remains soft & comfortable. We have both keys, the original owner's books and the spare wheel & tire have never been out of the trunk. There is an accident-free CarFax report as well, so the next owner can be confident about the Jag's condition.
Once again, the “miracle of depreciation” is the car-lover's friend, as it brings this $75, 000 car down to anyone's budget!
If you are considering one of the classic or collectible cars on our website, be assured that coming for a personal visit to inspect first-hand the car that has captured your fancy is very welcome. We practice transparency in all of our descriptions, but believe that nothing is as convincing as seeing and touching the car yourself. Plan a few hours, so you can see, touch, feel and drive the car, and enjoy a tour of our restoration shops to see 'where the magic happens.' If your schedule is too committed, we also welcome a knowledgeable agent visiting for you. Please understand that sales are final, so the time for all due diligence is before you buy. Our cars are sold AS-IS, since most are on consignment from owners. We follow FTC guidelines for all sales and certainly want our future clients leaving more glowing reports among our reviews!
