This cherished Jaguar XJ8 has an advisory-free MoT to 21st October 2026, and its odometer is showing only 40,600 miles. It was purchased new from Colliers of Sutton Coldfield, finished in Seafrost metallic paint with an Oatmeal leather interior, and first registered on 1st May 1998.

There are 2 former keepers showing on the V5C, but the car has been in the same family’s ownership since new, and kept garaged throughout its life. The vendor tells us, "My uncle purchased the car new for his wife. On her passing, he used it for days out and golf trips. Then it passed to me." 

The service book shows a fastidious maintenance record, with 26 annual services logged up to 39,415 in October 2025. The service in 2024 also included transmission oil. The history file contains the original sales invoice from 1998, together with various maintenance receipts and MoT certificates, and these are accompanied by the original Motorola phone, Jaguar CD, handbook pack, 3 spare keys (including valet key) and a locking wheel nut key.
