The seller offers for sale this 2002 Jaguar XK8, equipped with a 4.0-litre 8-cylinder petrol engine and automatic transmission. The car has been garaged at all times and recently received both a major and minor service, carried out approximately 700 km ago. As a preventive measure, the timing chains, tensioners and guides were replaced, and engine, transmission and differential oils were renewed. The engine starts without issues, runs smoothly and the automatic transmission shifts as intended. The body is free of visible rust and accident-free, with original factory paintwork showing only minor stone chips on the hood and front bumper. The interior presents well, with only light surface cracks on the driver’s seat and no tears.
The current documented mileage is 51.000 km and it holds a valid technical inspection.
The Jaguar XK8 represents a refined British grand tourer that blends elegant design with V8 performance. Introduced in the late 1990s as the successor to the XJS, the XK8 quickly became known for its smooth power delivery and comfortable cruising abilities. Its flowing body lines and classic proportions reflect Jaguar’s traditional styling cues, while the V8 engine provides strong yet refined performance. The model is appreciated for offering a balance between sporty driving characteristics and long-distance comfort. Today, well-maintained examples such as this one continue to attract enthusiasts seeking a stylish and capable modern classic.
