ProsLooks very posh ConsVery expensive to run

Lovely Cars For Not Much Money — Performance - Very fast and powerful V8 engine, lovely smooth auto box Build Quality - Well built and tough Appearance - Retro good looks, still look very expensive and posh, loads of toys inside and very nice leather Cost Of Ownership - Very expensive, drinks petrol, average about 16 - 18 mpg around town and 25 - 30mpg on a run, parts expensive too from jaguar so buy on Ebay for bits and bobs Fun Factor - Obviously not a sporty looking car as it was built for luxury but has the performance. Very fast and powerful. Holds the road like glue for such a massive car, but the big fat tyres help. Primary Use: Family transportation

Jag Xj8 — Amazing. Great buld. Great engine. There is some problems with overheating, but none that are overall in the make of the car. Cost of ownership is decent. It's an amazingly fun car to drive. I would suggest buying this care. Primary Use: Family transportation | ||

Jaguar Xj8 1998 — The Jaguar XJ8 has to be one of the most beautiful cars around. Its performance is excellent and ride comfort is out of this world. Can anyone beat the British for sumptuous use of wood and leather in a car's cabin. There's little to rival the growl of a 4 litre V8 when you turn the key and every drive feels like an occasion! | ||

ProsBlistering acceleration, Comfort, Highly appointed, Image, Class ConsRunning Costs

1998 Jaguar Xjr — Unbelieveable acceleration, solid handling. Likes to kick the back end out on wet corners and round-abouts! Brakes could be bigger for such a heavy, powerful car. Build quality is solid but has required a few small, 'niggly' repairs. The most beautiful car on the road - grace, space and pace! Cost of ownership - Astronomical rather than Economical. Fun Factor - Makes me grin like an idiot every time i drive it! 0-60 in 5 seconds - i rest my case! | ||
