‘V423MKK’ is a nice looking example of the spacious and luxurious XJ8 in X308 form. ‘V423MKK’ is a six owner car with the previous owner stewarding the Jaguar for over 10 years. For the last three years or so, ‘V423MKK’ has been off the road and stored in a garage. Within the last month ‘V423MKK’ has been recommissioned for the road to include a fuel system flush, new fuel and air filters and spark plugs. New MAF and coolant temperature sensors have also been fitted and a new MOT secured. ‘V423MKK’ has covered 80,140 miles with this seemingly verified by the MOT history. This XJ8 is complete with a great service history consisting of 13 main dealer stamps. ‘V423MKK’ is offered here with NO RESERVE and that new MOT is valid until February 2026.

The X308 Jaguar XJ saloon was originally intended to feature a new engine from owner Ford’s stable. That unit wasn’t ready in time, however, and so the XJ was gifted the impressive Jaguar AJ-V8 unit in 3.2 and 4.0-litre flavours. ‘V423MKK’ features the 3.2-litre unit, which was originally rated at a useful 240 bhp and 233 Ib-ft of torque. This is mated to a five speed ZF automatic transmission with the 3.2L considered to deliver the best combination of lively dynamics and sensible running costs. The vendor considers the engine and transmission to be “good” and the electrics “average.”

This X308 Jaguar is a handsome example which manages to retain a significant amount of design DNA from the XJ range dating right back to the late 1960’s. It is finished in the chameleon colour of Aqua Blue Green, presenting different hues depending on the light and angle of view. The quad headlamps and wide chrome grill give ‘V423MKK’ an impressive mix of sporting cues and a high level of sophistication. The interior of ‘V423MKK’ is spacious and impressively luxurious, trimmed in Cashmere hued leather which is accompanied by ample walnut veneer. Being the X308 model, ‘V423MKK’ features the much improved instruments and fascia from the XK8. The paint and bodywork are rated as “average” with the interior as “good.”

In summary:

· A recently recommissioned Jaguar with a sensible, seemingly original mileage.

· Offering a long MOT until February 2026.

· Complete with a 13 stamp, main dealer service record.
