Description

Like many Jaguar XK8 models, this car was originally sold in Germany and imported to Sweden in 2000. The original inspection upon registration recorded a mileage of 33,746 km, aligning with its current mileage of just 78,400 km, indicating it has primarily been used as a summer car since its arrival in Sweden. The car includes all handbooks and the service book, although the latter is not stamped, alongside numerous older receipts and inspection reports from its time in Sweden. Having just been taken out of winter storage, the car started immediately without any warning lights and drove well, though it would benefit from a clean and polish.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car has received regular servicing, with worn parts being replaced, and it has not been driven in winter for at least the past 6 years. It offers a pleasant driving experience, characterized by good road handling and the robust power of its V8 engine. It's equipped with good alloy wheels and tires.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is well-kept, showing minimal signs of wear, including the leather seats with slight wear on the driver's side bolster. The door cards are nice, and it features a newer headliner. The dashboard boasts attractive wooden trim, and the instrumentation is in good working order, along with electric windows, mirrors, and seats. The AC has been tested but is not blowing cold air. A thorough valeting would enhance its appearance further.

  • Exterior condition:

    The bodywork is straight, featuring good panels without any damage, and it's largely rust-free except for the typical problem area— the inner edge of the rear wheel near the sill, which tends to accumulate stones and mud, leading to rust as seen on this vehicle (as depicted in pictures). This is not a difficult repair. The underbody is clean, displaying only minor surface rust spots. The paintwork is bright and clean and would benefit greatly from a polish. There are a few small scratches, and the paint on the rear bumper has flaked off in places.

  • General condition:

    This car is enjoyable to own and drive, being in good overall condition. It just requires a thorough detailing and polish. The rust issue needs attention but is not urgent.

For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
