2003 Jaguar XK8 Convertible
British Racing Green with Saddle Interior 2 Owner Clean Car Fax Fully loaded Heated front seats Everything works Always garaged Brand new tires with less than 500 miles 2003 Jaguar XK8 4.2 liter with six speed automatic transmission. I purchased this car from a Mercedes Dealership and I am the second owner. I only drove this car on weekends during the Spring, Summer and Fall storing it during the winter months. The car is in great shape in and out with only some minor fading on the convertible top in two small areas. The top itself is in great shape. The interior has no rips, tears or cracks. The real wood dash is in great shape and all accessories work as they should. The leather seats are in great shape with the leather being soft a subtle. (My Wife says its the most comfortable car she has ever driven in) The car sits on four Nexen Summer performance tires installed this past spring. There are only a few very very minor scuffs on the edges of some of the rims but nothing that you would not expect from a used car and you really have to look for these very minor flaws. The car runs great, shifts smooth with no issues. The car has the factory windscreen which is a very nice option. This is a beautiful car. If you are in the market for a Jaguar XK8 I will tell you some things that you should know. The first generation of these cars up to model year 2002 were equipped with the 4.0 liter engine. This engine had some inherent internal engine flaws that needed attention. The timing chain guides were made from plastic and prone to premature failure resulting in blown engines. The repair was to change these guides with metal but this job is not covered by Jaguar and unless you are an experienced mechanic is very expensive. The thermostat was also made from plastic and again its an expensive fix and can be catastrophic if not done prior to failure. In 2003 Jaguar replaced the 4.0 liter engine with the 4.2 liter and matted it with a better preforming six speed transmission. The 4.2 has none of the issues that the 4.0 had and this is what led me to purchase this 2003 model year. I encourage all interested parties to come and see the car. The car is being sold AS IS with no warranties. The reserve has been set at a very reasonable price which was based on what recent listings have been bid up to regardless if these listings resulted in a sale. Car is for sale locally I reserve the right to end the auction anytime for any reason. Thanks for looking. |

Are you the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R-S?
Fri, 23 Aug 2013It's no secret that Jaguar is working on a fixed-roof version of the F-Type roadster, but now it looks like it's also developing a high-performance model for said coupe. Captured sharpening its claws at the Nürburgring, this F-Type Coupe prototype could very well be an R-S or even a more track-ready R-S GT variant.
Our biggest clue suggesting the latter are its massive brake rotors with bright-yellow calipers - similar pieces are also found on the recently introduced XKR-S GT. This would make sense, since a report in May said that Jaguar is looking to create a full line of R-S GT models in a similar fashion as the Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series. Missing from this prototype, though, are the telltale aero add-ons we seen on the XKR-S GT - go-faster bits like the latter's front fascia winglets and rear wing, though this model is obviously still being developed. Regardless of what this new grippier, quicker kitty is called, we say "Yes, please."
Jaguar Land Rover in talks for Southern US factory
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Jaguar Land Rover is getting serious about global expansion, and that means it can't only build its vehicles in the UK anymore. The British automaker is cutting the ribbon at its new plant in China tomorrow, marking the opening of its first factory outside the UK. In 2016, it will open another factory in Brazil. But the latest intel has it that JLR is looking into a US factory, as well.
The report, which comes to us from the Sunday Times by way of Automotive News Europe, indicates that the company is evaluating locations for a North American factory, with options centering around Southern right-to-work states like South Carolina, where BMW operates its plant in Spartanburg and a wide array of other automotive operations are based as well. The JLR plant would reportedly ramp up to a capacity of 200,000 units per year.
In related news, while that new plant JLR is inaugurating in Changshu, China, is initially slated to produce the Range Rover Evoque, it is also expected to start building the new Discovery Sport as well - just like the Halewood plant in the UK that has handled Evoque assembly from the start and which just built its first Discovery Sport, as well.
Watch the trailer for Jaguar's short film staring the F-Type and Damian Lewis
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Jaguar continues to think well outside of the box when it comes to marketing it's new F-Type, now furthering plans for a short film which highlights the sexy roadster. Desire, featuring Damian Lewis (star of the hit series Homeland), Jordi Mollà (unforgettable in Bad Boys II) and Shannyn Sossamon (that girl you had a crush on for like a month in 2002 after you rented A Knight's Tale), Jaguar is clearly pulling out all the stops for this one. Well, nearly all the stops anyway - the "Ridley Scott Associates" billing isn't quite the same has having the man himself, if we're splitting hairs.
The short video below is still just a trailer for Desire - the full film will make its debut sometime in April, we're told. The sketched out plotlines tell us that Lewis' character Clark, "...delivers cars for a living, running into trouble after a chance encounter with a mysterious, young woman (Sossamon) in the middle of a lawless desert." The car looks good, at any rate.
Call us crazy, but the Desire trailer feels an awful lot like a spoof on the cool-but-overly-serious short films that BMW has done in this vein, already. Maybe we're just being cynical? Tell us what you think in comments after watching the clip.
