The Jaguar Xk8 Cabriolet is seen by most car enthusiasts as one of the most beautiful open designs of the last decades. Probably the result of the opposite design philosophy and a touch of the classic E type in the model. In contrast to most convertibles, the Xk8 was directly designed as an open car, after which the coupe was created on the basis of this. The results are impressive. It is difficult to find a more atmospheric and comfortable convertible. That comfort is partly due to the extremely smooth V8 engine, whose 300 hp is not intended for absolute speed. Of course it is a fast car, but the power is mainly there to drive a pleasant cruising speed at low revs. And that with few switching moments of the automatic gearbox. In short, above all a car to enjoy. Due to the limited use so far, this specific example guarantees many years of driving pleasure. Only driven 30700 km as a third car, coming from the second enthusiast/owner. The car was used alternately with an older XJS. This Xk8 is one from the second series, recognizable by the silver-colored lines around the rear lights. The second series was already equipped with the modified 4ltr. engine, the first series requires an aftermarket modification to avoid problems with the engine's timing chain. The seats in this series offer more space and many details have been improved. The history, condition and mileage mean that this Xk has an attractive price/quality ratio.
