2001 Jaguar XK8 Convertible

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

The 2001 Jaguar XK8 represents the midpoint evolution of Jaguar’s first-generation XK series, introduced in 1996 as the brand’s modern grand‑touring flagship. Designed under Geoff Lawson, the XK8 revived classic Jaguar styling with its long hood, flowing lines, and subtle echoes of the E‑Type. By 2001, the model had matured with improved electronics, refined suspension tuning, and updates to Jaguar’s 4.0‑liter V8 engine, known for its smooth power delivery and lightweight aluminum construction. The XK8 was offered in both coupe and convertible forms.

is finished in Roman Bronze Pearl paint with a dark tan convertible top over Cashmere leather bucket seats and trim. Additional features include a five-speed automatic transmission with “J‑Gate” manual shifter, a navigation system, and a premium audio system. Service earlier this year included replacement of ABS components and various fluids.

This 2001 Jaguar XK8 Convertible is now offered by the selling dealer with owner's manuals, a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Washington state title.
