Like the E-Type before it, the XK8 made its debut at the Geneva Salon - that of 1996 - and from launch was available in either Coupe or Convertible guise. At the time of the newcomer's unveiling, Jaguar Cars was owned by Ford, as was Aston Martin, and it made sound economic sense for the XK8 and similarly targeted DB7 to share the same platform; which itself was derived from that of the outgoing XJS. The biggest of many differences between new and old, was the adoption of Jaguar's second generation independent rear suspension system, previously found on the XJ40 Saloon. Prior to 2003, power for the XK8 was provided by a normally aspirated version of Jaguar's DOHC V8 AJ26.

Finished in Aquamarine metallic with Ivory leather interior 'P806 KJC' is fitted with the 4.0 litre V8 engine, producing 290 BHP and mated to automatic transmission. Showing 5 previous keepers and currently displaying 90,500 miles the Jaguar is offered with a current MOT certificate into May 2016.
