Vehicle Detail
VandenPlas XJ8 in nice shape. New parts include an aluminum thermostat housing and a new plastic crossover pipe. New front suspension bushings, sway bar links, upper shock mounts, 1 upper and 1 lower ball joint , 4 new tires with less than 1000 miles on them. The brakes are good all the way around, with at least 1/2 life left. The underside of the car looks really nice too. No rust AT ALL. The car looks to have all original paint on a damge free body. I bought it from the original owner who paid $70,000 for it new. The rain sensing wipers, A/C, heated seats, cupholder, and moonroof are working good. Usually some or all of these items are broken or not working on these cars, but not this one. The leather on the seats is in nice shape, no rips, or rub through. The car does have the drooping headliner in the rear, and the 3rd brake light needs to be glued back onto the rear glass. There are a few minor cracks in the wood trim's clear coat, but better than most others I've owned. There are only lambs wool rugs on the right side floors. they are missing for the left side. The old owner didnt have them any more. This car has a steel lined engine, and updated timing chain tensioners, so those issues are not a concern on this car. Im only selling this car because I have an XJR, and dont need 2 jags. If i was going to keep it, I'd get it detailed to make it look even better, and get an alignment due to the new suspension parts installed. Ive put between 1000, and 2000 miles on the car since I've had it, and the check engine light only came on once, with the "check gas cap" message at the same time. This was due to the gas cap not being on tight. I put it on tightly and the light hasnt come on since.
