Now in our Houston Showroom is a luxurious and sporty 1997 Jaguar XK-8 Coupe. The Jaguar XK (XK, XK8 and XKR) is two door grand touring two-seater manufactured and marketed by Jaguar Cars from 1996-2014 in coupé and convertiblebodystyles, across two generations. The XK was introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in March of 1996 and was last manufactured in July of 2014.
The first generation was marketed as the XK8, replacing the XJS and was Jaguar's first 8-cylinder model since the Daimler 250, introducing the Jaguar AJ-V8 engine. The second generation XK, noted for its aluminium monocoque bodyshell, was launched in 2006 for model year 2007. Both generations were marketed in performance variants, as the XKR.
The Antigua Matalic blue paint still shines bright with custom exterior touches like a sporty Veilside Spoiler, custom grill, and chrome moldings around the lights. The leather interior hugs you as you cruise down the road in comfort thanks to air conditioning or heated seats depending on the time of year.
Under the hood the engine has had recent work done changing all fluids, the tensioners and belts have been replaced, as well as a new battery. The tires are also recently replaced so you can drive with confidence.
