2007 Jaguar XK8 Convertible

Vehicle Description 2007 Jaguar XK8 $20,400 "2007 Jaguar XK8 Convertible ""Grace, Space, Pace"" – Jaguar's advertising slogan for many decades after it first appeared in the 1950s. Jaguar's iconic emblem and former hood ornament is known as The Leaper. The face on the chrome embossed emblem is known as The Grinner. Jaguar has won the 24 Hours of LeMans, the world's oldest sports car endurance race, seven times. The first time in 1951 and the last time in 1990. Regardless of all the facts, the most fascinating thing about Jaguars is driving one. For consignment, a 2007 Jaguar XK8 convertible with a title verified 64,568 actual miles. Some in the classic car world will tell you these Xks represent one of the best luxury bargains in the market and as a result, they always find a new home when listed at Classic Auto Mall. Exterior With its rounded aerodynamic looks, integrated head and tail lights, and an oval grille reminiscent of the XKE series, this car presents with Winter Gold Metallic. Where chrome once denoted elegance, we now have modern urethane bumpers, rounded and smooth. The wrap around tail lights come to a point on the side, mirroring the corner of the front lenses. A fender duct suggests sportiness as does the subtle wing on the decklid and sizable exhaust tips. A handsome car with top up or down, the black canvas top hovers over narrow side windows and a steeply raked windshield, while providing a glass window. 18-inch wheels carry staggered width tires for improved handling and none are older than late 2018. Some inclusions, scuffs, orange peel, chin scrapes and damage to splash guard, are the only exterior imperfections on this sporty cat. Interior Caramel colored leather in good condition adorns the interior seating consisting of front buckets and a compact 2+2 rear. We note some wear and discoloration on the driver's seat, but all others are clean. Fronting these is a leather wrapped steering wheel with nickel backed switchgear and a twin gauge instrument cluster framed in burlwood which continues on to dress the center stack where we find the neatly arranged screen with navigation and an AM/FM/CD changer along with the A/C panel. A console mounted shift has a matching leather handle with a touch of patina and the passenger gets a view of a breathtaking burlwood trim panel on the dash. Plush tan carpeting for the floors is clean and protected by Weathertech mats while the boot is decked in with black carpet and metal rails over the spare cover for ease of sliding in your Louis Vuitton luggage or gold bars and referencing some Jaguar heritage. Above our heads is a headliner reserved for hardtops but lines the retractable top. Drivetrain Clad in clean, plastic panels, we find a 4.2 Liter DOHC V8 which puts out a respectable 295 horsepower and is mated to a 6-speed ZF automatic transmission. It has EFI and a 3.06 rear axle. Undercarriage Driven and relatively clean, the underside is augmented with heat shields and aluminum panels, designed with intention. Dual exhaust is here, traveling in tandem down a center tunnel, meeting a large, original muffler before exiting to the atmosphere via two chrome tips split wide on the valance. Double wishbone coil spring suspension is found front and rear of the fully independent system. Naturally, four wheel power disc brakes are standard. Drive-Ability The big cat still handles like a sports car and the nearly 300 horses under the hood push it eagerly forward. This is where sport meets luxury and it's a very nice place to be and aside from your brain, your right foot will be the happiest body part on the drive. Meanwhile, all functional items operate as intended on this handsome Jag. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. It's British, it's topless, it's powerful and no, we're not talking about Sienna Miller! We're talking about this very clean 2007 XK8. Sure, it'll impress onlookers but buy it because you love it. This is one you will turn around to stare at after you've parked it, and during the honeymoon phase, we expect you'll be spending more time in the garage to watch it rest. We understand and await your call.
