1997 Jaguar Xk8 Convertible, No Reserve on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
I have a 1997 Jag XK8 V8 Convertible for sale. This car is in decent condition for its age. It starts and runs well. The car has had the front and rear bumpers replaced with XKR bumpers and they look much better but are still stock for the car. The XKR was the high performance version of the XK8. It also has newer rims from the 2000's series XK8. These things make it look much newer than it is. Top is in great shape and functions properly.
The heater/air conditioning module may need to be replaced. It worked in the past but now the display does not turn on. I have looked and these cost about $50 on ebay. The center console arm rest is worn out (common on these cars) and could be replaced if you desired. They are about $200 on ebay. The ABS light stays on and the dash says Traction control, but the operation of both seem to be fine. The tires may be a little cupped from sitting and they should probably be replaced at some point in the near future. This car is not perfect. Please do not expect this to be a brand new Jag. It is over 15 years old. It is a sharp looking, good running car that has been in warm weather its entire life. No rust or other issues. I am listing all possible issues with the car as it is old and a lot of these issues are common for Jaguars. Please contact me with any questions. No reserve auction, car will sell to highest bidder. |

2016 Jaguar XE is ready to stalk the competition
Mon, 08 Sep 2014
The XE wears some of the best styling elements from Jaguar's current litter.
Big sedans and sports cars. Jaguar has been known for those two things since the company's name was birthed in 1945. Stylish saloons like the Mark 2 and performance machines like the E-Type make up the brand's heritage, but the compact sedan market is one where the British marque has lacked great product.
Jaguar turns down offers to join V8 Supercars, questions AMG, Volvo participation
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Rumors have swirled in recent weeks that Jaguar may be the next manufacturer to join the V8 Supercars racing series, made popular in Australia but now well-known in other parts of the world as well. Sadly, Jag's participation is not to be. In fact, it would be "insane," according to Jaguar Land Rover Asia Pacific Managing Director David Blackhall, for it to accept either of the two offers it has received to bring Jaguar into V8 Supercars.
Not only is Jaguar not interested in entering V8 Supercars, says Blackhall, it also fails to understand the recent entries from AMG and Volvo. "I don't know what it does for AMG to get flogged by a V8 Commodore week after week, but it's their brand, their issue. And the same thing will happen to Volvo to be honest."
Judging by Blackhall's statements to motoring.com.au, after not-so-serious consideration, the automaker decided the monetary commitment it would take to compete for wins would be more than any potential exposure would be worth, despite the fact that Jaguar has a 5.0-liter V8 to go along with what would seem to be a tailor-made rear-wheel-drive chassis. For what it's worth, one offer would have had Jaguar putting its name across an engine made by someone else, an option that was flatly turned down.
Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee season 2 opens with Sarah Silverman and Jag E-Type
Sat, 15 Jun 2013Season Two of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee kicked this week in style. How much more style is there to be had than in a 1969 Jaguar XKE, after all? This time around, Seinfeld and Sarah Silverman spend some time driving around in the "slinky, sexy" Jag, talking comedy and then grabbing breakfast.
In addition to the kickoff of the show's second season, this episode also represents the start of a 24-episode sponsorship with Acura. The original deal promised short ads at the beginning and end of each episode, but this time around, Seinfeld "stumbles upon" a 2014 Acura RLX, which is obviously - and admittedly - the work of product integration. Scroll down to watch Seinfeld and Silverman exchange banter with the Jag's beauty as a happy backdrop.
