Description

A rare and unique opportunity to acquire one of the lowest milage example of this ever appreciating modern day classic.

This 1999 Jaguar XJ8 4. 0 (XJ-V8 290 bhp) 5 Speed ZF Automatic, SWB Saloon has only covered 15K miles from new. In straight, original and Concours condition cars like this are getting extremely hard to acquire.

This example was sourced and imported from Japan in 2016 showing an incredible 2, 200miles to add to a private collection of Jaguar vehicles of all periods. It was fully serviced and commissioned by Jaguar Grange Motors of Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire. Since then the owner has used the vehicle sparingly for shows and displays whilst maintaining its condition inside and out. The original as new ‘Dimple: Alloys were replaced with a second road use set while the originals have been stored in unmarked condition for show use.
Finished in gleaming Topaz metallic coach work with contrasting unmarked premium oatmeal leather interior and deep lacquered wood veneer throughout.

This modern day classic motor car can only be described as the ultimate gentleman's carriage, opulent luxury, effortless power, silky smooth automatic gear changes, excellent road holding, reassuringly strong and durable, extremely fast when required a truly majestic ride and image. This brand has always been at the upper echelons of luxury motoring. The car oozes exclusivity, style, class and once gliding down the open road it never seems to fail to bring a smile and a sense of occasion to all occupants within it.
It boasts extremely impressive performance and specification even for a motor car that's over 25 years old now. Jaguar XJ's in this condition are only increasing in value year on year making them a sound investment opportunity for the future as all classic Jaguar's are.
This Jaguar's interior and exterior condition is without exaggeration totally first class in every way, no damage, no dents, no chips, no scuffs or scratches to report whatsoever to the bodywork and the interior condition is as new. Even the delivery clear film to the door sills are intact! This car is a real credit to its former keepers and has been fastidiously loved and maintained regardless of cost. Rare 4. 0 V8 model, sort after colour combination, and one of the last true looking traditional Jaguar XJ’s.

This car comes complete with, full unused tool kit, Valet Key, central locking, full size ‘Dimple’ alloy spare wheel plus original unmarked show set. ( In addition the original emergency spare wheel is included along with associated jack and tools all in unused condition).
The Jaguar toolkit within the engine bay has been preserved as new.

This very low mileage example is priced at a competitive level, not what you would expect for an example of this quality and hence considered very reasonable value for such a modern classic,
