You are viewing a car being sold out of a family collection wich is a two (family members) owner gem. It is a nicely optioned (and yes they all work!), extremely well maintained, exceptionally low mileage, 9,342 Jaguar XK8 Roadster. This body style went from 1997 to 2006 & this roadster is 100% stock & 100% pampered in every way. This supremely elegant convertible features a gorgeous Sherwood Green on the exterior, along with an incredibly beautiful Tan Cashmere Leather interior. No one does this classic color combination like Jaguar. Please look closely at the many detailed photos I have provided, because in person thi Jag is an absolute movie-star. With the very low mileage, the all original paint, what you have here is a collector car. If you were to drive her only on Sundays for the next 10 years you would have a a real collectable Motorcar and this XK8's worth would double what it is today. To the savvy buyer, this is a rare opportunity, as well as a great investment. This breathtaking XK8 is in outstanding condition, free of any dents or unsightly parking lot door dings, and the sparkling finish is just in great shape. The sumptuous interior is in near new condition as well. This Jaguar spent it's life in a garage in rural New Jersey & Pensylvania. This XK8 has never seen Sow or Rain. The Carfax and Auto Check reports are cystal clear, indicating a one / two owner, accident free automobile. Of course this fine car was owned by a non-smokers. This exceptional Roadster drives superbly, equipped with a powerful electronic fuel injected 294 HP engine, this flagship motor car will provide you with all the power you will ever need. Along with a silky smooth, 5 speed electronically-controlled automatic transmission, this Roadster is an absolute pleasure to drive. Whether you are planning an extended trip or simply just driving it around town, this sophisticated Jaguar is the perfect choice. The original mileage is only 9,342 and it looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor! Duplicating this unique all original Roadster would be impossible, that is how rare it is actually is. This special XK8 was Motor Trends car of the year in 1997 and this was the first year it was produced. It has the limited Sherwood green color for 1997 only. This Jag has only been serviced at Jaguar and I had it inspected as well to insure your complete satisfaction. I have the owners manual, the floor mats, the expensive Jag car cover and one remote and one key. This Jag comes along with quite a few features, nearly too many to list. I will mention a few here such as the High powered Alpine sound system with in-dash CD, trunk mounted 6 disc CD changer and the Telescoping/Tilt Leather Wrapped Multi-function Steering wheel with Matching Shift-Knob. There are the 12-way power, Heated seats with 2 position memory,headlamp washers, the one-touch retractable power top, which takes less than 20 seconds to open or close. Door Sills sparkle and this XK8 has the Elm-wood trim throughout the cabin which is the ultimate compliment to the beautiful Tan Cashmere Leather. The bottom line here is, that I may very well have one of the most well cared for, certainly the lowest mileage all original finest 1997 XK8 Roadster's available on the market today. With spring market only a couple of weeks away, the prices are only going up from here. The vehicle sold new for almost $78,000.00 in 1997.
