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

Say goodbye to Jaguar's vestigial oval grille
Tue, 10 Dec 2013Jaguar has been on a campaign to replace any and all retro cues with modern ones. Just look at the current XJ and the one it replaced, or the XF and the S-Type that came before it and you'll know what we mean. The one remnant is the XK and its oval grille, in and of itself a throwback to Jags of old (which started to look more like a certain Star Wars alien in above-pictured XKR-S form). But don't expect it to hang around.
Newer Jaguars have been ditching the oval aperture for a more squared-off one, and the next XK will have to fall in line. But don't expect that to be the only change in store for the next-generation Jaguar coupe and convertible.
With the new F-Type now holding the more enthusiast-oriented ground, the next XK is expected to grow bigger, softer and more luxurious. That will likely mean a more commodious back seat as well, though that shouldn't be hard to do considering the lack of space in the back of the current model...
Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?
Wed, 16 Oct 2013The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."
Jaguar reveals upcoming XE's InControl infotainment system [w/video]
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Jaguar has been keeping busy lately, rolling out both the new Lightweight E-Type and F-Type Project 7 at Pebble Beach this past weekend. But the more important project for the British automaker is the upcoming new XE.
Coventry has been releasing a steady stream of information and teasers on its new 3 Series challenger, and has now revealed details of the new infotainment system that will debut in the XE. Called InControl, the system centers around an eight-inch touchscreen and integrates with smartphones (running both iOS and Android) through the InControl Remote and InControl Apps. The system will allow drivers to pre-set the climate control for each day of the week, lock and unlock the doors and start the engine remotely.
It'll also include an on-board wifi hotspot to connect multiple devices and a laser-based head-up display that you can scope out in the graphic above as well as the video and press release below in advance of the XE's upcoming debut in London on September 8.
