6/7/2014 Update: To answer a few emails I've received: The tensioners, I presume, are part of the timing belt and I've had other enthusiasts ask if the service had been done. I'm not certain of what the service interval is or what it entails. I would recommend checking online or with Jaguar for more information. Additionally, I've heard that these vehicles are prone to leaking power steering fluid which is how I've reached that conclusion. It's not much but it's worth noting. You're welcome to come take a look if you'd like. I can't imagine any reason why you can't continue to put miles on this vehicle without issue as is. Another part worth noting is that we replaced the coolant overflow reservoir a few months ago. The car had been sitting and we noticed the leak. A quick google search had us pull the reservoir off and upon inspection it had a crack. The replacement was new. Any other questions, just ask or call me at 480-241-9107 before auction close. There are 21 people watching the auction right now and all it takes is one bid to own the vehicle. 1998 Jaguar XK8 Convertible Single owner and enthusiast owned car (sold a 1973 Type E last year here on eBay). Adult owned. Everything operates as it should. Top works without issue and comes with matching cover as well. Great condition for a 16 year old Jaguar. New battery (4/22/2014) The car was purchased new at Scottsdale Jaguar and was mostly a weekend vehicle (only ~6k miles per year). Spent the majority of the time parked underground. Single owner - straight body - great paint - great tires - everything works (top, antenna, etc) The only detriments would be as follows: tensioners have not been done - small leak (could be power steering, not certain) - bolster wear - could use bushings up front as it's noisy over bumps - rearview mirror is loose. Starts right up, runs great. I welcome any inspections locally (the car is currently under cover in my garage). I am also able to hold the vehicle for up to 30 days once payment has been made if you want to fly/drive out or arrange for transport. Reason for selling is that we've recently purchased a new Jeep Cherokee and no longer have room for all the toys. Ask any questions you may have as needed. The car comes with two keys and one alarm fob. Bid with confidence. $250 deposit within 24 hours (cashiers check/bank transfer/cash/Paypal), remaining balance within 5 days (cashiers check/bank transfer/cash).
