— View the entire auction on www.classiccar-auctions.com —

The Jaguar XK8 Convertible was introduced in 1998 as the successor to the Jaguar XJS. It was Jaguar's first convertible with a soft top since the E-Type of the 60s. The XK8 Convertible shares its chassis and much of its technology with the Jaguar XJ8 Sedan. The design of the XK8 Convertible is inspired by the legendary Jaguar E-Type. Under the hood of the XK8 Convertible is a 4.0-liter V8 engine that produces 290 horsepower and is connected to a five-speed automatic transmission. The car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in about 7 seconds and has a top speed of approximately 240 km/h. The XK8 Convertible was available in several versions, including the standard XK8, the sporty XKR and the special 50th Anniversary Edition in honor of Jaguar's 50th anniversary. The car was popular with enthusiasts for its elegance, performance and luxurious interior.

The cars on offer are part of a static collection that has been accumulated over the last 40 years. They are mainly in an unrestored, original but dusty condition. We have not tried to start any of the cars. We have been informed that the engines have been turned, on a regular basis, but the exact condition of the cars and the engines is unknown to us.

You can inspect the cars on the viewing days for which you have to make a reservation through our ticketshop - www.eventix.shop/xmxuc9fs.
