WELCOME TO MY LISTING FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL Jaguar XK8 CONVERTIBLE FINISHED IN THE BEST COLOUR COMBINATION, BRITISH RACING GREEN WITH IVORY LEATHER. FOR THE LAST 9 YEARS THE CAR HAS BEEN OWNED BY THE DIRECTOR OF A LOCAL Jaguar APPROVED BODYSHOP & AS SUCH HAS BEEN MAINTAINED REGARDESS OF COST. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION FOR AN OVERVIEW OF THE CARS EXCELLENT CONDITION:-
MECHANICAL CONDITION
THIS CAR WAS IN DAILY USE UNTIL IT WAS REPLACED LAST MONTH WITH A SLIGHTLY LATER SUPERCHARGED MODEL & AS SUCH HAS BEEN VERY WELL MAINTAINED. IT HAS RECENTLY UNDERGONE A FULL CYLINDER HEAD REBUILD TO SOLVE A SLIGHT RATTLE WHICH APPEARED, THE REAR AXLE HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A RECONDITIONED UNIT & WHILST THE AXLE WAS OUT, THE FUEL LINES & BRAKE PIPES WERE ALL REPLACED, THE SHOCK ABSORBERS HAVE ALL BEEN RENEWED & SO ON. AS SUCH THE CAR DRIVES FAULTLESSLY. THE ENGINE STARTS ON THE FLICK OF THE KEY WITH NO UNTOWARD SMOKE OR RATTLES. THE PERFORMANCE DELIVERED BY THE 4.0 LITRE V8 POWERPLANT IS SUPERB, THE GEAR CHANGE ON THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IS SEAMLESS, THE BRAKES, SUSPENSION & ALL OTHER MAJOR MECHANICALS ARE IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER.
BODYWORK CONDITION
AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOGRAPHS, THE CONDITION OF THE BODYWORK IS EXCELLENT. FINISHED IN METALLIC BRITISH RACING GREEN WITH A MATCHING GREEN CANVAS HOOD, THE PAINTWORK HAS A FANTASTIC DEPTH OF SHINE, THE GENUINE Jaguar 20" BBS DETROIT ALLOY WHEELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION & DUE TO THE GENUINE Jaguar 2004 SPEC FACELIFT BODYKIT, THIS CAR APPEARS TO BE A LOT YOUNGER THAN IT ACTUALLY IS. 
INTERIOR CONDITION
THE INTERIOR IS FINISHED IN IVORY LEATHER WHICH ALTHOUGH SHOWING SOME SIGNS OF NATURAL WEAR, IT IS IN OVERALL VERY GOOD CONDITION. I HAVE CHECKED ALL OF THE INTERIOR ELECTRICAL FEATURES OF THE CAR & FOUND EVERYTHING TO BE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. BEING HYPER CRITICAL, THE ONLY THINGS I CAN FAULT ARE THE LCD DISPLAY ON THE CLIMATE CONTROL PANEL IS NOT WORKING VERY WELL (QUITE COMMON ON THESE CARS) & THE ELECTRIC SWITCH PACK ON THE DRIVERS SEAT IS LOOSE ALTHOUGH STILL MOVES THE SEAT IN ALL REQUIRED DIRECTIONS. THE ELCTRIC WINDOWS, POWER HOOD, AUDIO SYSTEM, MIRRORS ETC ARE ALL IN GOOD WORKING ORDER.
DOCUMENTATION
THE CAR WILL COME WITH THE ORIGINAL OWNERS BOOK PACK CONTAINING ALL OF THE ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUALS INCLUDING THE SERVICE BOOK WHICH I BELIEVE IS STAMPED UPTO AROUND 101000 MILES, THE V5C REGISTRATION DOCUMENT WHICH CURRENTLY DETAILS 2 PREVIOUS KEEPERS, THE CURRENT MOT WHICH WAS ISSUED WITH NO ADVISORIES & EXPIRES ON THE 19TH NOVEMBER 2015, STACKS OF PREVIOUS MOT CERTIFICATES, 2 KEYS & 1 REMOTE HANDSET FOR THE ALARM/IMMOBILISER.SINCE PURCHASE IN 2005, ALL SERVICING HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT BY THE OWNERS BUSINESS & MAJOR MECHANICAL OPERATIONS HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT BY EITHER A Jaguar MAIN DEALER OR A LOCAL Jaguar SPECIALISTS HOWEVER THERE ARE NO RECENT INVOICES TO PROVE ALL OF THIS AS OVER THE YEARS THEY HAVE ALL GONE INTO THE BUSINESS ACCOUNTS. 
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, OR WOULD LIKE TO ARRANGE A VIEWING, I CAN BE CONTACTED ON EMAIL VIA CONTACT THE SELLER LINK WITHIN EBAY OR ON 07792 493847.
