2001 Jag Details

For sale is my 2001 Jaguar XJ8 in British Racing Green. I have owned the car since August 2023 and have put ~5,000 miles on it in that time which included a trip to and from San Diego. I purchased this car in San Diego after searching for one specifically in that market so that I could have PPI and initial maintenance done by Coventry Cars of San Diego which is a well-known and well-respected Jaguar indy shop.

Since owning the car, I have worked on getting it mechanically sorted, which it is essentially, except for a few items noted as below. The bulk of what is left is cosmetic work, mostly on the exterior. Based on a few estimates I've received from body shops the body/paint work likely totals ~$3,000.

I am asking $7,500, which based on the low mileage, condition, work I've done, and work remaining I believe is reasonable. I am open to reasonable negotiations however.

Please see fine detail below and feel free to reach out with questions. I have purchased several pre-owned, vintage cars directly from owners so have striven to make this listing as detailed as possible. I appreciate honesty and transparency and would like to share that in return.

The car is located at my home in Henderson, NV.

The vehicle comes with the following as pictured:

1 Key, 1 valet key, 2 fobs (the secondary one needs a new battery)
Owner's manuals
Custom Cocomats (I have the original Jaguar branded mats as well)
Mina Gallery oval exhaust tips (I decided to keep the tips stock but will include these in the purchase. The Mina tips are much beefier.)

Known Mechanical Issues:

"TRAC Unavailable" message: ABS Module was replaced however I do get the "TRAC Unavailable" message for a few seconds upon start-up most times. It goes away after a few seconds.
Driver's door latch/cable: This has begun sticking recently. The door can be unlocked manually, from the fob, or from the center unlock button, but the latch cable likely needs to be replaced.
Some remaining front end "clunk": Despite the suspension/swaybar work done as noted above there is a front end clunk that goes away after some driving and at higher speeds. I suspect a bushing somewhere needs to be replaced but I haven't addressed given it isn't an issue really.
Radio: Radio is functional. I use it regularly, however some/all of the speakers likely need to be replaced. I currently have the bass turned all the way down for this reason.

Known Cosmetic Issues:

Exterior: Passenger side right fender dent as pictured. This was present on the vehicle when purchased.
Exterior: Passenger side right bumper as pictured: You'll see a small white patch in this area. The previous owner had a small reflector here and it was knocked off leaving the adhesive back and peeling some paint.
Exterior: Side View Mirrors: As pictured, you can see some paint scuff marks on both mirrors. This was present on the vehicle when purchased.
Exterior: Driver's Side Door: Small paint chip as pictured.
Exterior: Bumper has some areas where previous owner placed some touch up paint as pictured.
Interior: Area around "S" button near gear selector stained slightly as pictured.
Interior: Driver's side wood trim has some veneer cracking as pictured. This piece also tends to pop out slightly at times but can be pushed back into place.
Interior: Passenger's side wood trim has some veneer cracking as pictured.
Interior: Wood trim above glove box has some very faint scratches as pictured.
Interior: All center functions/buttons work (A/C, heat, etc.) however the center section is a bit loose as the bottom clips have failed. This doesn't affect any of these features/functionality so I have not bothered to replace the clips.
Interior: Driver's side speaker cover cracked as pictured.
