Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1998 Jaguar XJR is a striking Sapphire blue metallic example with Oatmeal leather interior, noted as a feature car in Modern Classics magazine. It boasts a supercharged V8 engine and has undergone significant bodywork, presenting well despite its mileage, making it a compelling classic performance saloon.
Condition
7
The car has had major body works done around 2014 and has been garaged when not in use, indicating good care. While it has high mileage (169,230 miles), the engine benefits from replacement chain and tensioners, and a qualified motor engineer has performed its servicing. The exterior presents well for its age, but the description implies it's not perfect, fitting a 'Very Good' rating.

Description
• Supplied by Rybrook Jaguar Solihull on 27/7/1998 •
Finished in Sapphire blue metallic over Oatmeal leather • A feature of Modern Classics magazine in 2016 • In current ownership since 2015, with history file and V5C Penned by Geoff Lawson and stylistically indebted to its XJ6 (X300) predecessor, the XJ8 (X308) was launched in 1997.
Powered by a new generation of 3.2 or 4.0-litre AJ-V8 engines, the X308 would soon see an XJR derivative powered by a supercharged version of Jaguar’s 4.0-litre AJ-V8 engine which, with an output of 370bhp, was capable of powering the luxury saloon to 60mph from a standstill in 5.6 seconds and on to an electronically-limited top speed of 155mph.
Supplied by Rybrook Jaguar Solihull on 27th July 1998 and finished in Sapphire blue metallic over Oatmeal leather, we understand the car received major works to the body in c.2014 with a photograph on file and as such the body presents well for a near 30 year old steel-bodied XJR.
This has no doubt been helped ...
