Unveiled at the 1996 Geneva Motor Show exactly 35 years after the appearance of the E-Type, the “X100” XK8 was an immediate hit with the motoring press thanks to its elegant lines, improved build quality and brand new V8.

This car is a very early example from the first year of construction in 1996, which will receive the coveted H registration plate in 4 years’ time.

The car has a very well documented and very low mileage of just under 35,000 km.

The maintenance history according to the Japanese service records is as follows:

4/1/1997 1,529 km

9.12.1997 3.910 km

5.11.1998 7.244 km

8.11.1999 10.691 km

28.10.2005 20.459 km

6.11.2006 21,060 km

16.10.2012 27.061 km

29.10.2013 28.094 km

09.11.2015 29.094 km

01.08.2021 34.000 km (major service by the owner himself).

It is accordingly in a very nice condition and would be recently overhauled again in some technical points. The current owner bought the car in 2019 directly from Jaguar Classic in Essen, who previously imported the car from Japan.

The rare colour combination of Antigua Blue Metallic with a light “Oatmeal” interior is particularly beautiful.

All in all, a really beautiful and rare example from the first year of the Jaguar XK8.

The car can be viewed by appointment. It is currently in storage with us in the vicinity.
