Buy Used and Reconditioned Jaguar XK8 parts at Breakeryard

The Jaguar XK8 is a two-plus-two sports car that looks much more expensive than it is, especially in the used car market as depreciation is heavy. Produced by Jaguar for 10 years, these are still sought after cars.

Jaguar XK8 (1996 - 2006)

Under the bonnet of the Jaguar XK8 burbles a four-litre V8 that unleashes 300 horses. When it was launched in 1996, this grand tourer was bestowed with Jaguar''s newly developed AJ-V8 engine. It''s so powerful that the maximum speed had to be limited to 155.4 mph.

The XK8 was available as both a coupe and convertible. Despite their size, neither is particularly roomy on the inside; the back seats are only really suitable for children. The driver and passenger are, however, graced with a plush looking cabin with all the traditional wood and leather you would expect from a Jag. So it''s not a very practical car, but let''s be honest, that''s not why you bought it. As Parkers says, "it''s got James Bond looks, with performance to match." There''s even room for a couple of sets of golf clubs in the boot, so you can enjoy driving your XK8 to the golf club and showing it off to your friends.

As standard, the Jaguar XK8 came standard with a host of amenities including 17-inch alloys, an all-leather interior, heated seats, climate control, cruise control, parking sensors and side airbags. The XK8 was designed by the same guy who designed the DB7 and the similarities are evident, although of course the Jag doesn''t come with the same hefty price tag.

Running costs in the XK8 are notoriously high. That V8 powertrain guzzles fuel and, even with your lightest right foot, you''ll be lucky to eek out 22 mpg. What you do get is a stunning GT that offers a very comfortable drive and you''re sure to get a few glances along the way. The XK8 was replaced by the XK in 2006.
