Vehicle Description
Time to get your hands on a future classic for less than the price
of even a used economy hatchback. This 1999 Jaguar XK8 has all the
modern power and amenities you want, and best of all, it has been
maintained so that this droptop is ready to start appreciating.
It's hard not to fall in love with a Jag that still has a nice
gloss on its correct Carnival Red Mica. After all, red is the best
color for a convertible, and this one has a deeper tone that
conveys the sophistication that comes from owning a fine British
sports car. And if you must drive in bad weather, the insulated tan
power folding top gives it distinction, too. Jaguars have that
timeless appearance of a sleek sports car with luxurious touches,
and so it's hard to tell this convertible's age because it fits so
well into the company's lineage. But because this is 20 years old,
it's a valid contender for classic car insurance.
If you like the way the tan roof looks against the red paint, then
you'll love the cream leather interior with plenty of glossy wood
trim. Your driving pleasure is rooted in the nicely bolstered
bucket seats that power adjust to your ideal position. Because this
is a modern classic, you can expect plenty of modern luxury, too.
This includes a power tilt steering wheel, power steering, power
windows, power locks, cruise control, power seats, keyless entry,
and the factory premium AM/FM/cassette stereo w/CD changer. Power
windows and a power convertible top mean never having to leave the
driver's seat when you decide it's time to open up to the world.
And automatic climate control means the luxury experience continues
even when the top is down. But beyond comfort, a modern car also
means a much safer ride with features such as dual airbags and
anti-lock brakes.
Under the bonnet (hood) is a very tidy 4.0-liter fuel-injected V8
that shows all signs of being original to the car. This motor is
famous for combining the engineering talents of Ford with Jaguar's
flair for driving passion. It purrs with buttery smoothness but can
growl with the biggest cats when you plant your right foot. This
convertible was built to be your ultimate grand touring getaway
car, and so the motor is mated to a five-speed automatic
transmission utilizing the iconic J-gate shifter. The European
engineered fully independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes,
and the 17-inch Jaguar alloy wheels with Continental sport tires
means this Jag begs for the back roads.
Complete with owner's manual, you probably never thought that you
could get such a nice and highly original Jaguar convertible for
this kind of money. But no matter if you're looking for the best
deal in a convertible, or looking for an ultra-cool spare vehicle,
this one fits so perfectly into everyone's plans and budget. Call
