Details:
With the introduction of the X308 generation in 1997 came a switch from the "XJ6" and "XJ12" nomenclature to "XJ8", reflecting the fact that the X308 cars were powered by a new V8 engine.

The exterior styling of the X308 was similar to the X300 with minor refinements such as a change to oval indicator lenses and round fog lights. The interior was also updated to eliminate the instrument binnacle used on the X300; instead, three large gauges were set into recesses in the walnut-faced dashboard in front of the driver.

The major mechanical change was the replacement of both the inline-six and V12 engines with new eight-cylinder AJ-V8 in either 3.2L or 4.0L versions with 4.0L also available in supercharged form. No manual transmission was available, and all X308 models were supplied with a five-speed automatic gearbox.

Offered here is an excellent example of the X308 XJR, which is said to be in excellent condition and is finished in the beautiful colour combination of Azure Blue with Black Leather interior. The car come complete with an extensive history file, which includes previous MOT certificates, 10 service stamps from Main Agents, invoices for works including Head Gaskets and timing chain tensioner replacement, with the new designed items (this is the next best thing to a new engine), with a recent replacement throttle body. The car has also benefited from replacement O/S & N/S rear shocker bushes, replacement main engine CPU, cam shaft shims machined for perfect running and power. replaced Security ECU, replaced Coils and gearbox rotary switch for trouble free motoring. The exhaust system has also been replaced.

This car has been the subject of extensive work to bring it up to a high standard expected from this beautiful and powerful machine. All the money has been spent to put the car into a condition of a faultless Supercharged saloon with 370bhp and 0-60 in just 5.6 seconds.



Outstanding value for money and an incredibly fast, luxury. motor car.
