I am the original owner of this beautiful XJ8, one of the most attractive sedans ever built. We bought her new in January 1998 for about $54,000 and she has spent her entire life in the no road salt environment in Florida and hence has no rust. The car has about 105,000 never abused miles on it. She has never been wrecked. It is totally dependable and everything works on the car except as noted below. She has a new set ( less than 1,000 miles ) of Sumitomo radials and a new set of front seat covers to cover the worn originals. She has a good sounding multi-disc CD player mounted in the trunk. Now for the weak points. The paint I would describe as fair to good with the usual parking lot dings and some slight chipping on the left rear door. The roof paint is a bit faded with a touch up that lifted in a small spot and didn't quite match the faded paint. The ding in the rear bumper is hidden by the "GB" sticker. Mechanically it's good except for the following issues: the left front turn indicator is not working, the heat blows, but the heat is anemic even though the A/C blows ice cold, the right rear shock needs replacing as it makes a thumping sound (a new shock is included with the car but not installed ). We drive this car anywhere and it is our preferred car on a long road trip. Purchase of a new car means she has to go. The Kelly Blue Book ( www.kbb.com ) on this car in a private sale ranges from $3,845 to $4,795. Feel free to call or write with any questions, (813) 600-9936. Ed
