2006 Jaguar XK8 Convertible 4.2L V8 in JHV Light Blue Metallic.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Are you looking for a convertible that offers pure luxury, timeless elegance, and unmatched performance? Look no further. We are proud to present this stunning 2006 Jaguar XK8 Convertible 4.2L V8, a true masterpiece of British craftsmanship and design. This gorgeous car, finished in the original JHV Light Blue Metallic color, is not only a feast for the eyes but also provides an unparalleled driving experience.
In 2002, the Jaguar XK8 received a significant facelift, during which the engine was upgraded to a 4.2L V8. This new engine delivered an impressive power of 294 hp and a torque of 303 lb-ft, resulting in faster acceleration and an even smoother driving experience. The improved engine ensured that the XK8 not only continued to compete with its rivals but also strengthened its position as a leader in the luxury sports car segment.
The facelift also brought other improvements, such as enhanced suspension systems, refined interior materials, and updated technologies, making the driving experience even more enjoyable and luxurious. The exterior design was subtly updated to give the car a fresher and more modern look, while remaining true to its elegant and timeless lines.
For the last two production years (2005 and 2006), the XK was facelifted again. This facelift was limited to a new front bumper with a few air intakes below the license plate holder and a fine-mesh grille without inserts. This is the most desired model among collectors.
This specific Jaguar XK8 is a beautiful example in good condition. The original color code JHV Light Blue Metallic still shines with a deep gloss. The car is equipped with its original 19-inch light alloy wheels, which perfectly match the elegant and sporty appearance of the XK8. The tires have good tread.
The interior of this Jaguar is just as impressive as the exterior. The light beige leather interior is in good condition. The dashboard is neat and well-maintained, with all buttons and switches functioning properly. The soft, high-quality materials provide a luxurious feel that makes every ride a pleasure. The neat soft top is easy to operate and in excellent condition, perfect for sunny days and starry nights.
Furthermore, this Jaguar was last serviced 611 miles ago (before export to the Netherlands).
This Jaguar was factory-delivered for $75,495.00 in the USA (and for 112,000 euros in the Netherlands in 2006) with a wide range of options;
