SOLD - 2003 Jaguar XK8 Roadster 4.2L 32V DOHC V8 w/only 81k miles, CA & FL owners

Envisioned to pay tribute to the classic Jaguar XK E sports cars of the 1960s, the first generation XKRs alluring, projectile shaped body combines the stylish lines of Jaguars XK8 series with freshened trim. This XK8's seductive steel reinforced monocoque body panels have never been wrecked or damaged in any way, and display the excellent build quality British luxury marques are known for. The convertible's aerodynamic design gives it a slick drag coefficient of 0.36, and the car simply oozes Jaguars 'big cat' brand philosophy with a taught profile which appears ready to pounce on the next thing that moves.

The chrome trimmed “4.2” badge on the car's rear valence is referring to Ford's hot 4.2 liter DOHC 'AJ' V8 which produces gobs of horsepower and torque! Tilt the massive hood and you'll find a clean, exceptionally maintained engine bay that has only seen approximately 5,000 miles per year since it left the showroom. And judging by how clean and well-kept everything is, I'd venture to say this car was either used as a sunny day cruiser or, at the very least, kept in a garage most of its life. The engine is clean, reliable, purrs like a kitten when fired up and runs like a lion when the right pedal meets the floor.

Open the doors on this low-slung XK8, and you'll find Sandlewood leather and Burl Walnut interior that is exactly what you would expect from a Jaguar. The seats show little to no wear at all and, the door mounted two driver memory system allows you to completely customize your driving position. Inside that two-tone Walnut and silver trimmed dash, a host of gauges complement an Alpine premium audio system. In front of the driver, a leather wrapped steering wheel sits on a tilt and telescoping column and features buttons for the cars audio and cruise control. Behind the cockpit, a good looking convertible boot sits above a spotless carpeted trunk.

Included with the sale is the cars original owner's manual and warranty booklets.

This Jaguar XK8 is a clean, reliable luxury car with plenty of power and excellent road manners. With its unmatched combination of old world craftsmanship and contemporary modern conveniences you'll feel like an A-list celebrity on even the simplest errand runs. If you are in the market for an affordable luxury car then look no further. Not only does this car give you all the modern comforts but also adds some style with a great looking exterior.
