Produced in an era when Jaguar dealers could use quotes such as this… ”Walk around its exterior; the smooth, muscular lines: the powerful stance; an indefinable presence that commands attention.
Perfectly formed.
Emotionally stirring.
Visually stunning.” Aah, the good old days, when cars identified as cars and woke was something you did in the morning, gone forever.
Purchased from Jaguar dealer Royles of Wilmslow by the vendor in 2006 when our 4.2 XK8 had covered just 17,000 miles in its first two years.
Simple maths leads us believe that it has travelled around 20,000 miles in the last 20 years.
Finished in Radiance Red with Dove Grey leather and specified with electric seats, reverse park control, wood / leather steering wheel and a radio cassette, subsequently fitted with a Tracker system that we assume can be transferred, but you will have to check.
The general condition is extremely good, if we were to be critical, a machine polish of the paintwork would be of great benefit...
