    Bad Points: Short journeys like with all Jaguars should be avoided. Engines can flood and consumption is cruel.

    General comments: The Jaguar XK-8 convertible is still a true British car of quality and engineering that we should be proud of. Styling, finish and ride quality is still something of an icon with Jaguar cars and the name holds high regard amongst most people of all nationalities and ages. Turns heads from all age groups.

    This Jaguar XK-8 Convertible 4.0 V8 car is great for the price, as you can pick them up for around £10000. It isnt really a sports car but a cruiser, it was rather fast but didnt seem it. This is not a car to be driven fast as it doesnt just feal right. Its somthing to cruise around in. You will get more looks in this than a 911 especially since I had a bright red one. It would attract all types of people from young to old. I highly recomend this car if buying second hand. ...

    Jaguar XK-8 Convertible 4.0 V8 Review Dump some weight. Save a tree and spare me so much wood. I feel like Fred Flintstone. Put a solid automatic boot on the top. Put some seats that have side support and body contour to them instead of these Marlon Brando fat-ass couch buckets. I get lots of looks. people think I must be rich. It's a nice ride. All I want is for my licesne plates to be a memory and for the cat to smoke the road. She ain't no DB9 and she SHOULD be.

    I have had my 1998 Jaguar XK-8 Convertible 4.0 V8 Sports Car for a year now and love the way this car presents itself on the road. It comes with all the extras you would expect on a top range car. The performance is fantastic and the fuel consumption is very good considering its a V8, I get between 16 - 23 mpg depending on if it is in sports mode or not, on a long run I have got nearly 300 miles out of a full tank of fuel. Forget the Jags of old this car has been very reliable (apart from ...

    I love this Jaguar XK8 Convertible car it just makes me smile whenever I look at it and once on board the smile just gets bigger as we head for the next series of bends. Maybe it's not in 911 league but it would take a pretty enthusiasic driver to loose me! The image is perfect too. I am constantly let out of junctions (never happened in the BMW!) and folk, young and old, approach you in the car park and comment on how great the car looks (never had that with a porche). There are a few silly ...
