When Jaguar came to replace the original XK8 (a development of the final version of the long-standing XJS, the replacement was deemed a thoroughly more modern successor.
The Ian Callum-designed Jaguar XK (X150) was launched at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show to critical acclaim, with Autocar calling it “perfect for buyers looking for elegance, comfort, daily usability and massive power”. In order to drive home the marques legendary DNA, the X150's grille was designed to recall the shape of the 1961 E-Type. The new model also featured a bonded and riveted aluminium chassis (shared with the contemporary XJ) with alloy body panels.
Inside, and aimed at targeting a younger demographic, Jaguar made the cabin simple and unfussy, wood finishes for example were longer offered as standard. A new era of Jaguar for a new type of customer, this innovative new model was the first car in the world to feature under-bonnet airbags, which automatically lifted the bonnet in the event of a pedestrian impact. Jeremy Clarkson, never knowingly underspoken, likened the interior of the original XK8 to sitting inside Blenheim Palace.
First registered in August of 2007, finished in a beautiful and unusual colour scheme of Salsa Red with Ivory Leather, this beautiful example has been with just two owners from new, having covered a mere 45,000 or so miles in the intervening years.
Supplied by Stratstones, the Jaguar is offered complete with a fully stamped service book (14 entries), with the last service at 44,288 miles. Accompanied by various service and maintenance bills, current MoT and UK V5C, this wonderful 300bhp Grand Tourer is on the button and ready to be enjoyed.
