This 1999 Jaguar XK8 Convertible perfectly captures the elegance and performance that defined Jaguar's grand touring tradition at the turn of the millennium. Showing 89,368 original miles, this example presents beautifully overall and remains a stylish, refined drop-top ready for enjoyment.
Under the hood, the car is powered by Jaguar's 4.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine producing 290 horsepower. It's paired with a five-speed automatic transmission featuring Jaguar's signature "J-gate" shifter, allowing the driver to manually select gears when desired. The result is smooth, confident acceleration and effortless cruising, ideal for open-road touring or city driving alike.
Finished in a sleek, timeless color combination, this XK8 displays all the graceful lines and flowing proportions that made it one of the most beautiful convertibles of its era. The design is distinctly Jaguar-long hood, short rear deck, and a power soft top that operates seamlessly, emphasizing both form and function.
Inside, the luxurious cabin is adorned with premium leather upholstery and elegant wood trim, exuding classic British craftsmanship. Comfort and convenience are equally impressive, with heated front seats, a premium Harmon Kardon sound system, and power-operated features throughout. The atmosphere is one of refined sportiness-a true luxury sports convertible built for spirited yet comfortable driving.
A minor imperfection on the rear bumper is noted, but the car otherwise shows well overall, reflecting careful use and good maintenance through the years.
This XK8 Convertible offers an excellent opportunity to own a timeless modern classic that combines V8 performance, distinctive styling, and Jaguar's hallmark luxury-all at an approachable price point. It's a perfect entry into the world of collectible European grand touring cars and a wonderful weekend cruiser ready to enjoy.
