THIS IS A VERY RARE FIND A 1997 XK8 CONVERTIBLE WITH ICE CREAM PAINT AND CREAM INTERIOR. WE AQUIRED THIS AUTOMOBILE FROM THE DENNIS PETERSEN COLLECTION. AND HAD IT FULLY INSPECTED BY ERIC ZEIGENBEIN WHO IS AUTO NATIONS NUMBER ONE USED CAR SPECIALIST. ERIC SAYS THE CAR IS AN AMAZING FIND AND THAT IT IS IN NEW SHOWROOM CONDITION. THIS CAR WAS ORIGINALLY OWNED BY THE PETERSEN FAMILY AND WAS KEPT AT THERE HOME IN BEVERLY HILLS FOR MOST OF IT'S LIFE. THE CAR DID MAKE A FEW TRIPS TO THERE CORONADO HOME OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS JUST OCCASIONALLY DRIVEN AROUND BEVERLY HILLS AND DOWNTOWN LA BY MRS PETERSEN. THE CAR AS YOU CAN SEE HAS ALWAYS BEEN STORED IN DOORS IN A CLIMATE CONTROLLED SETTING ALL OF THE RUBBER SEALS AND LEATHER ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS ALSO FLAWLESS. THE ICE CREAM PAINT WAS AN UPGRADE IN 97 AND 98 AND WAS VERY VERY LIMITED PRODUCTION. IF THIS JAGUAR DOES NOT MEET THE RESERVE PRICE IT WILL GO TO THE BARRETT JACKSON AUCTION IN SCOTTSDALE ARIZONA IN JANUARY. WE DO HAVE A PICTURE OF THE CAR PARKED AT THE RANCH WITH DENNIS AND MJ WITH A FEW OF THE WILD HORSES IN THE BACKGROUND. I HAVE TO TALK TO MY PARTNER TO SEE IF THAT PICTURE WILL GO WITH THE CAR OR STAY WITH US AS A SOUVENIER. WE ALSO HAVE THREE OTHER JAGUARS THAT WE PURCHASED AT THE ESTATE SALE THAT WE WILL BE LISTING NEXT MONTH. THIS CAR IS IN PERFECT RUNNING ORDER AND I PERSONALLY HAD THE PLEASURE OF RIDING IN THE CAR TO GO TO DINNER ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND IT WAS AWESOME. IT RUNS SO SMOOTH AND QUIET. THE ONLY THISN THAT HAS BEEN DONE SINCE WE ATTAINED THIS VEHICLE IS A SET OF NEW TIRES WERE INSTALLED BECAUSE THE ORIGINALS HAD BEEN ON SINCE 1997.
