There are plenty of the X100 XK’s for sale. There are bad ones and there are ones to have. This is the one to have. The collector rule is to buy the end of the line or the start of production. Here we have the end of the line XK8 with the 4.2 litre engine and importantly the 5 speed automatic transmission. Fully loaded with every extra and they all work correctly.

Masons Black with black soft top and cream leather with lovely wood dash board and 20” upgraded alloy wheels. A classic combination.

The most recent owner a most discerning gentleman with a small but very nice collection of cars has owned this Jaguar since 2015 and is now reducing his collection finding the low slung XK a tricky dismount which with 80 years under his belt I can imagine! That said do not confuse the reason for selling being because he has not used the car. Over the 11 years he has owned the car some 25000 miles have been enjoyed and the service records show the car to have been well cared for during that time

Performing faultlessly for the 80 miles I drove collecting the car MK05MAR is exactly the XK you want if your need is for reliable, sporting and grand touring classic ownership.

Not the cheapest XK8 you will find but this trouble free well serviced and car is worth the little extra. These cars are such good value with low rate road tax too. I can assure the potential new owner of many years of low cost and possibly appreciating value. Sooner rather than later these end of line XK8’s will begin to climb in value or at least hold their value whilst you continue to enjoy the thrill of the XK8

If you are considering one I strongly recommend this black beauty
