Description
OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE
Sold as a Daimler in its home market as a nod to the once-independent high-end British marque, the Vanden Plas version of the Jaguar XJ8 sedan sat at the top of the automaker's lineup. With its longer wheelbase and richly appointed interior featuring additional wood trim, upgraded leather, and lamb's wool floor mats, the XJ8 Vanden Plas was by far Jaguar's most luxurious offering.
This 2008 XJ8 Vanden Plas is finished in Seafrost over Ivory leather upholstery, and it is powered by a naturally aspirated 4.0L AJ-V8 paired with a ZF five-speed automatic transmission, traction control, and four-wheel disc brakes.
The car rides on 16″ 10-spoke alloy wheels and features a power-operated sunroof, a “Leaper” hood ornament, integrated front fog lights, and polished Vanden Plas-specific trim. Inside, walnut wood veneer accents the cabin, extending to fold-down seatback tray tables for the rear passengers. Additional amenities include power-adjustable front seats with driver-position memory, and heated front and rear seats, while an aftermarket Kenwood head unit linked to a trunk-mounted amplifier has been added.
