The Jaguar XK was made between 1996 and 2014, across two generations. It was a fine two-door four-seat grand tourer from this iconic British luxury automaker that aimed to offer a laid back yet potent driving experience. Naturally, Jaguar also made it in drop-top form, for those who like an open-air experience. While the second generation is a sharp looking vehicle that’s still quite modern today, the first generation is a definite future classic. That’s why you should seriously consider buying this California-based 1997 Jaguar XK8 Convertible that we’ve got for sale. This car has traveled 118,956 miles so far, which shows how nice it is to drive. Moreover, it’s said to be all original, and the hydraulic pump has been replaced.
Wearing a black coat, this 1997 Jaguar XK8 Convertible shows off its intricate lines and classic Nineties styling, which is the design work of Geoff Lawson. The car’s powered black convertible top further adds to its monochrome palette, while its five-spoke alloy wheels come in silver, and are once again, a distinctive design that can be found on many Jaguars from the same period. The tan interior of this 1997 Jaguar XK8 Convertible offers leather-upholstered seating for up to four adults. It’s well equipped, with air conditioning, climate control, power locks, power mirrors and power windows. You’ve also got analog gauges, and we’re told that the gas gauge doesn’t work, but that’s usually a minor fix. The gauges illuminate in a pleasing shade of green, and are a real treat to look at during night drives. The front seats have heating as well, and you’ll find the traditional Jaguar J-gate shifter for the automatic transmission of the car. You’ve also got a Jaguar branded radio with cassette tape player within the center console. The driver’s seat does show some signs of wear, but once again, shows that this car has been enjoyed, and is waiting to give further enjoyment to its new owner.
Packing a 4.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 under the hood, every cruise in this 1997 Jaguar XK8 Convertible is a memorable one. The engine drives the rear wheels via a 5-speed automatic gearbox for a seamless driving experience.

With a long line of sports cars to live up to, including legends such as the E-Type and the XJS, the Jaguar XK8 had large shoes to fill when it was introduced to the world in 1996. The design was a rapid departure from its predecessor, offering a sleek and elegant profile coupled with a range of creamy-smooth V8 engines. The interior is well-appointed, with an abundance of wood and leather on offer and the typical old-world charm that was befitting of the Jaguar name. Our featured car is a 2001 Jaguar XK8 Convertible with a 4.0-liter V8 engine and 100,000 miles. The current owner reports that the car has undergone plenty of recent maintenance, which will undoubtedly ensure that this modern classic stays on the road for many miles to come.
Owning a Jaguar means you appreciate the finer things in life. Being behind the wheel of a Jaguar means you are exposed to a fine balance of performance, luxury, and, most importantly, years of engineering excellence waiting to let loose. Jaguars are most renowned for their grand tourer offerings, and machines like this 2003 Jaguar XK8 Convertible we have today provide a grand tourer experience like no other with silky smooth performance and sleek looks. With a reported 82,000 miles on the clock, this Big Cat is looking for its new custodian to savor the weekend with its top-down and great times ahead.

The Jaguar XJS is well regarded as a fine classic Jag to own from this prolific British automaker. As Jaguar reinvents their identity in 2025 and goes in a different direction altogether, cars like this 54,533-mile 1993 Jaguar XJS are a great way to remember the brand’s colorful past of creating old-school British luxury cars for the discerning buyer. This particular car is sitting in Miramar, Florida, and has undergone a recent servicing. Moreover, the original manuals for this car are available, and what’s greater is, it’s been restored. You’ve also got all receipts available on request so that you can see the extent of work done to keep this beauty gliding along the roads.
Introduced in the late ’90s, Jaguar’s S-Type was the British automaker’s midsize luxury car offering. Coming as your typical four-door sedan, the S-Type represented a refreshing alternative to luxury car buyers who didn’t want an E-Class or 5-Series. In 2008, the S-Type was replaced by the XF, making it a fairly short-lived car in a modern context. Today, getting your hands on an S-Type such as this 2007 Jaguar S-Type is a great idea because it’s a relatively uncommon car that’s still cut out for regular driving duties. Furthermore, it’s a definite future classic and one that you shouldn’t miss out on.
Cars have gotten a lot more flashy over the past few decades. They used to be used to get from A to B, but now? They’re seen as full-on accessories and status symbols. If you want a status symbol that will have people thinking you’re in the mafia but can also outrun the cops, this 2024 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG Grand Edition with just under 7,000 miles on the clock is more than up to the task. You see, the G wagon started life as a rugged, utilitarian workhorse, but as the years have gone by, Mercedes has found more and more ways to refine it. And the rest is history. This particular G-Wagon is 1 of just 1,000 units in the world, making it a real unicorn.
The Range Rover is a luxury SUV from British off-roader maker Land Rover, and it was introduced in 1970 to show the world what Land Rover could do in the luxury space. Land Rover is best known for the iconic but spartan Series and Defender, and they wanted to broaden their target markets. The Range Rover spawned a few sub-derivatives as well, such as the Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Velar, but the full-fat Range Rover remains supreme. Today, we’ve got a current-generation 2023 Land Rover Range Rover SE P400 for sale from Ford Lauderdale, Florida, with just 23,299 miles reported to its name. You really should experience this all-stock car to see what luxury SUV motoring is all about, and it makes a fine family hauler too, with its spacious cabin, roomy trunk, and plethora of tech toys.
Since 2003, the Bentley Continental has represented a fine four-seat two-door grand tourer from British luxury car supremo Bentley. The only one that’s well-equipped to challenge Rolls-Royce, Bentley Motors has been around for over a century. Furthermore, the brand is the choice of many affluent enthusiasts because it imbues a sense of driving pleasure into its cars. While a Rolls-Royce is best experienced from its sumptuous rear seat, a Bentley forces you to choose. Will it be the driver’s seat or the rear seat today? That conundrum is most applicable to four-door vehicles. When it’s a two-door like this 2013 Bentley Continental GTC, the choice is firmly the driver’s seat. So step up and step into the driver’s seat of this 11,700-mile grand tourer from Mississippi, and you’ll never have to settle for less.
