The Jaguar XJ is one of the last vehicles to have received design input from Jaguar Cars founder Sir William Lyons. Hitting the market in 1968, the XJ is synonymous with largely retaining its classic design cues well into the 2000s and beyond. New generations would emerge, but the exterior styling would be a freshening-up rather than a new revolution. Well, until the last X351 generation of 2010, that is. Purists loved the Jaguar XJ because they believed it to be the last bastion of proper British luxury cars. If you're among this demographic, this 2000 Jaguar XJ8 up for sale will surely warm your heart. The car has done 132,500 miles, which tells you that it's been enjoyed, but in true Jaguar fashion, it's still got so much more to give. The current owner reports that the car has undergone some mechanical work to keep it running at its peak.
This 2000 Jaguar XJ8 hails from the X308 generation that saw production between 1997 and 2003. Externally, it's an excellent symbol of classic British luxury with its silver paint job and period-correct alloy wheels. You'll also note the relatively meaty tires, a departure from the thin rubber-band units that most cars have nowadays. Those tires are there because Jaguar wanted to give optimal comfort to the occupants of the car rather than mere eye candy to onlookers. While the shape of the car is unmistakably classic, you can also see modern features such as halogen headlamps. The current owner notes that the front and rear bumpers have been repainted. Inside, there's a cabin with black leather seats and plenty of wood trim. You'll find modern conveniences such as automatic climate control, powered front seats, and cruise control, for example. There's also a radio with cassette and CD playback, as well as a premium sound system. However, the current owner tells us that the radio works intermittently and thus requires some attention.
This 2000 Jaguar XJ8 packs a creamy smooth 4.0L V8 under its hood, sending drive to the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission. The current owner tells us that the car has had a used transmission swapped in and that the engine has received new coil packs and injectors. Furthermore, we're informed that the oil pan gasket has been replaced, as well as the entire cooling system has been redone, including almost all hoses.
The Jaguar XJ is a full-size luxury car that was first introduced in 1968. It was the last model line to be created under the leadership of Jaguar’s founder, Sir William Lyons. The XJ was designed to offer traditional British luxury appointments and maintained its largely similar styling for many generations. However, in 2010, Jaguar introduced the X351 generation, which was a rapid departure from tradition. It took the motoring world by storm and was offered for nine years. Up for sale today is a 2019 Jaguar XJ R Sport for those who dare to be different. The car bears just 10,700 miles and comes with all maintenance reportedly up to date.
“That’s the best Jag, probably, ever made” – Jeremy Clarkson on the X308 XJ. He was talking about the XJR there, but it’s a sentiment that can be applied to the entire X308 lineup. The Vanden Plas was the top-of-the-range model sold in the US (equivalent to the Daimler that was made for other markets). They came with softer suspension, all the luxury features and options, and Vanden Plas trim and badging. The X308 often tends to get confused with the X300, which is quite understandable. The visual differences are minimal, with the major changes being the new dashboard, bumpers, and engine options.

With Jaguar Cars recently rebranding to mixed reactions from auto enthusiasts, it’s a great time to remind ourselves of their greatest hits from the past. One of these is the XJS grand tourer. Produced between 1975 and 1996, the XJS is widely regarded as one of the most iconic Jags ever made. Its flying buttresses and grunty V12 engine all make for a superb driving experience, and one heck of a weekend cruiser. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 1992 Jaguar XJS V12. The car has covered 94,231 miles so far, and has reportedly undergone some recent maintenance.
The successor of Jaguar’s iconic XJS grand tourer, the XK was introduced in 1996. It ran until 2014, across two generations, before the F-Type took over. The XK also spawned a high-performance, supercharged variant called the XKR. With Jaguar’s recent rebranding and new direction causing quite a bit of controversy, why not celebrate what the brand used to be, rather than taking up arms at what it might be? This 2005 Jaguar XKR Roadster is a great way to celebrate, with its drop-top and supercharged V8 waiting for you to enjoy. The car packs just 118,064 miles, and has been recently serviced too.
