Hi all
Having decided to sell my merc, I've found a 2002 XK8 which I'm rather drawn to. Is there anything in particular to look out for or any buying guides that are recommended. It's a 4.2 with FSH and will come with a 2 year warranty
Thanks
D

Hi JazD
A good book out at the moment is "Jaguar XK8: A modern spoting icon" which is full of useful information. You can obtain it direct through Jaguar World Magazine or we have a few in stock if you are interested (www.xkec.co.uk)

Many thanks Mark. I'll check out the website. I've never had a jag before and must admit to being slightly nervous about it. Saying that, the one I'm looking at looks amazing and appears to have been well cared for. Are you or anyone else for that matter aware of any specialists or recommended garages that can carry out an inspection?
