Description from the seller
Thank you for your interest in this Jaguar XK8 4.0 V8.
Technical
This Jaguar is in good technical condition and has always been well maintained. The powerful 4.0 V8 engine recently underwent a major service worth €1,200. The car runs excellently and has consistently passed the periodic inspection without issue.
Interior
The interior is fully original and in neat condition. This XK8 is very well equipped and features all available options. The leather front and rear seats are well maintained and show only normal signs of wear for its age.
Exterior
The paintwork is in very good condition. Recently the car was professionally polished by a car detailer, resulting in a superb finish. Of course this is a car of about 30 years old, so there may be one or two minor signs of wear here and there. The Jaguar sits on attractive alloy wheels all around, fitted with good tires.
Documentation
The car is supplied with the complete French registration papers. In addition, the mileage history from France is available, showing the low and logical mileage. This registration also provides a nice maintenance and usage history of the car. Various maintenance invoices are also available.
Summary
Are you looking for a stylish and original Jaguar with the beloved 4.0 V8 engine, a demonstrable history, and an excellent presence? Then this Jaguar XK8 is absolutely worth a viewing.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
