A brief history of the car is shown below:

The car was first registered on 01/03/2002 and was registered in Blackburn
The 1st owner owned the car for the next 6 years covering just under 33,500 miles
The car was then acquired by the second owner in Jan 2009. Who ran the car for the next 6 months covering just over 2,000 miles
The car was then sold to the 3rd owner having only covered a total mileage of 38,690 who used the car for the next 5 year and covered just over 95,500 miles in his ownership.
The car was then purchase by the 4th owner in June 2014. Who ran the car very sparingly, covering a mere 3,500 miles before I acquired the car in Feb 2017
The current owner has since used the car on a 1,500 mile tour to the far north of Scotland and have now cover just under 2,000 miles without major issue. As you can see from the above the car has covered a total of just under 140,000 miles from new and is still in outstanding condition due to being maintained as Jaguar intended, all the hand books, two sets of keys etc.

The owner has also replaced the water pump, expansion tank and the ABS wheel senses as preventive maintenance before the trip up to Scotland. How many XK8’s have all this and are in such outstanding condition. To sum up a genuine XK8 in Outstanding Condition. Known history from new. Owned and maintained by a classic car enthusiast. It took the current owner over a year and thousands of miles, to locate this XK8 as he wanted a genuine car that was not full of rot. Only very reluctantly for sale to fund his long term MK2 Jaguar restoration project. You would spend more than the asking price in restoring a well-used XK8 to a lesser condition.

The car is located in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. But delivery can be arranged within the UK if required-to be discussed with the owner.

Very realistically priced at only £5,750.00 which is a lot less than what the owner paid for the car .
