?Recent service, new timing belt, new injectors, new plugs and new
transmission Looking for something with a spacious rear seat
without resorting to a typical limousine? This Jaguar XJ8
long-wheelbase Vanden Plas may be of interest to you. This L model
is four inches longer and has a five-inch longer wheelbase and this
example is well sorted and recently had service work of a new
timing belt, new injectors, new plugs and a new transmission 6k
miles ago. Produced in March 1999 at Jaguar?s factory in Coventry,
England, this car is finished in Medeira Maroon (code CGH). The
paint and trim are in overall good condition and as a Vanden Plas
model, is it differentiated from the other trims by its fluted
radiator grille surround and fluted boot-lid plinth. The body is
straight and solid, the engine bay is extremely tidy and the
trunk?s cargo area looks great. The body-colored bumpers fit
tightly to the body and look good. This cat rolls on Mastercraft
MC-440 radials, size 225/60R16, each one mounted on a factory alloy
wheel. The wheels are in excellent shape while the tires are in
very good condition. This car uses a ?touring? set-up that is
softer and more compliant. Under that forward-hinged and
counterbalanced hood is a 4.0L DOHC, 32-valve V-8 engine (code
AJ27-V8) with Bosch direct fuel injection and two-state variable
valve timing. Other features include fracture-split forged powder
metal connecting rods, a special one-piece cast camshaft and
reinforced plastic intake manifold. The motor is mated to ZF
five-speed automatic transmission (code ZF 5HP24) with a 3.06:1
rear end. Driver convenience features include automatic climate
control, ZF Servotronic power rack-and-pinion steering, power
four-wheel disc brakes, cruise control, power windows, power locks,
power sideview mirrors and 12-way power front seats. Additional
goodies include a sunroof and a six-compact disc changer mounted in
the trunk. Safety equipment include dual front airbags, foglights,
anti-lock brakes, traction control and rear parking sensors.
Inside, the car has a Cashmere interior (code SDZ). The front and
rear seats, swathed in Connolly leather, including the rear center
fold-down armrest, are in overall very good order, while the
matching Wilton wool carpet is in similar shape. The headliner is
in good shape while the instrument panel and inner door panels are
all in better-than-average condition. Parts not festooned in
leather are covered in burled walnut panels for warmth. The center
console, door panels and dash are perfect examples. The shift lever
has its famous ?J? gate pattern and a factory AM/FM stereo with a
cassette deck and a six CD changer mounted in the trunk complete
the interior. Competition to this Jag in 1999 include Acura?s
3.5RL, BMW?s 740iL, Cadillac?s Sedan de Ville, Infiniti?s Q45,
Lexus? LS400, Lincoln?s Continental and Mercedes-Benz?s S500. This
contemporary Jag would make a good second or third car or a car to
send to the airport to pick up family, executive sedan for business
associates, friends without being obvious like a six- or
eight-window limo. Stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars today to look
