2003 Jaguar XK8 Coupe 4.2 V8 Six speed Model | 87,000km
Not all XK8s are created equal. This is the highly desirable final-series 4.2-litre Update Model, featuring the superior 6-speed automatic transmission, exceptionally low kilometres, and a recent comprehensive major service that sets it apart from most examples currently on the market.
This stunning 2003 Jaguar XK8 Coupe represents the ultimate evolution of the iconic X100 series. Drawing inspiration from the legendary E-Type, it combines timeless British design, effortless V8 performance and genuine grand touring luxury.
Powered by Jaguar's refined 4.2-litre V8 and matched to the sought-after 6-speed ZF automatic transmission, it offers a noticeably more modern and enjoyable driving experience than earlier 4.0-litre, 5-speed XK8 models.
With just 87,000km from new, this final edition X100 series, XK8 is increasingly recognised as one of Jaguar's most desirable modern classics. Elegant, powerful and rewarding to drive, it offers a rare combination of style, performance and exclusivity.
Low-kilometre 4.2-litre Update Models are becoming increasingly difficult to find, particularly examples that have received extensive recent maintenance and present to this standard.
The Jaguar just had a Major Preventative Maintenance, a comprehensive 23-year major service, including:
• Full vehicle service
• Replacement of all major rubber components in the engine cooling system
• Thorough mechanical inspection
This significant recent investment provides confidence and peace of mind for the next owner.
The car features
• 4.2-litre Jaguar V8
• 6-speed automatic transmission
• Premium leather interior
• Burr Walnut timber trim
• Climate control air conditioning
• Electric seats
• Cruise control
• Trip computer
• Premium audio system

A Modern Classic, 87,000km, 4.2 V8, 6-Speed Automatic, a beautiful example of Jaguar's golden era of grand touring.
