56 plate xk8 80k miles for 20k......worth a punt?

[barrieeld]

just wondered if anyone here has a new shape xk8 as a daily driver?

Is a 56 plate vehicle with 80k miles for 20k a good buy?

is there anything i should know about the marque?

it only comes with the small 18" alloys but i can source the 20" ones from flea bay.

Its a good buy , some still want that for an old shape 05. LPG if you want to make it as cheap to run as something very boring

Fine, but if you change to the larger wheels won't the speedometer have to be completely recalibrated? Your speedo could be dangerously under reading. No real idea about modern Jags but we all had to be careful on the old ones about changing rear axle ratios which would have the same effect.

"No real idea"

Standard 18s optional 19" and 20" new 5.0 standard 20s. No need to worry as long as you fit the right profile tyres so the rolling radius remains the same
