This 2004 Jaguar XJ8 is low mileage for the year model at less than 59000 miles. It is is in good cosmetic condition, especially for a 9 year old car. We have owned the car for about 2 years. We enjoy driving it and hate to sell, but it is an extra vehicle for us now. The car runs strong and shifts smooth. The tires are only a couple months old with remaining warranty through Discount Tire. It has the typical smooth ride expected from these XJs with air suspension. I have 1 key/remote.
The car is mechanically sound and has no issues that I am aware of. I have performed all the services and routine maintenance myself. It has auto tilt wheel for easy entry and exit. It also has adjustable pedals. Both front seats are power with adjustable air lumbar. The headlights are auto on/off and the wipers are automatic rain sensing. The stereo is the base system with single cd player. The "air suspension fault" has come on before a few times due to a front ride height sensor, but the suspension and air compressor and all aspects of the suspension system function properly. The light goes out on its own, so I haven't addressed it other than to find out what was causing the fault.
Cosmetically, this Jaguar is very nice. Though it has been driven and is 9 years old, so it is not perfect. I have taken close up pictures of all the flaws I can find and posted them in this auction. The paint is shiny with a few minor chips and scratches here and there. Clear coat is peeling a little on the passengers side mirror. The windshield has one minor reairable rock chip at the bottom center. The rear bumper has a few scratches on the right rear corner that are hardly visible. Please see the attached pictures for all other minor flaws.
Please contact me with any questions.
This Jaguar is for sell in Fredericksburg, TX locally as well. The winning bidder will be resposible for picking the car up here, or arrange for shipping within 7 days of the end of this auction. I will except a $500 deposit through Paypal within 2 days of the end of auction. I have clear title in hand and will except a cashiers check for the remaining amount.

This Jaguar E-Type is an even longer-legged feline
Tue, 12 Nov 2013Paul Branstad loves the shape and purity of the Series 1 Jaguar E-Type, produced from 1961 to 1968, but appreciates the longer length of the Series 3 V12 model, which affords occupants a more comfortable space in which to enjoy long trips. So when Branstad brought his damaged left-hand-drive 1968 roadster from its home in the US to Classic Motor Cars in the UK for a restoration, he had a special request: restore his car, but make it a bit longer.
"This is something that we have never done before. Our client wanted the interior leg room of a Series 3 V12 E-Type but the aesthetics of a Series 1 car," says Nick Goldthorp, managing director of CMC.
For the restoration, CMC added 4.5 inches of length to the floor pan of Branstad's E-Type to create the extra legroom. Goldthorp relates, "The V12 was actually nine inches longer than a Series 1 but a lot of the additional room was behind the seats as storage and was not required on our project." That's because CMC also built a trailer out of two E-Type rear ends that attaches to a custom-made removable tow hitch.
Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota
Wed, 12 Dec 2012As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.
Jaguar appoints Joe Eberhardt as North American President
Thu, 19 Dec 2013Jaguar Land Rover North America has appointed a new president, Joachim Eberhardt. The German exec, 50, had previously done stints at Chrysler Group, DaimlerChrysler UK, Mercedes-Benz USA and Daimler-Benz.
Eberhardt joins JLR NA in a good, but challenging time for the company. It's fresh off the launch of the Range Rover Sport and Jaguar F-Type, which have been subject to rave reviews, and its overall sales are up 21 percent over 2012. Still, as Automotive News points out, the two manufacturers face a fight to become the equal of A-list competitors like BMW and Mercedes in the eyes of consumers.
"Joe brings a proven industry track record and valuable global leadership experience in luxury sales, service and marketing. We look forward to Joe leading our North American team in working with our retail networks to further grow the business and better serve our customers," JLR's group sales operations director, Andy Goss, said.
