My bright orange Jaguar XK8

As with every car, tinted lights look gash. I like the basic idea of what you've done but it needs a few tweaks imo.

Love the orange mate, just don't like the chrome or bonnet vents.

Have you been taking inspiration from this guy?!

Love the look of that car, this seems to be more the direction Jag themselves are going now.

Any reason you chose an 8 and not an R?

[ehonda]

I quite like that.
The chrome obviously needs to go and I think those orange side repeaters need changing to smoked ones.
Otherwise, look pretty damn good.

At the time I didn't feel I needed the extra horses. Notbsure now and may bolt a blower on at some point. Thatvway you get VVT plus supercharging.

In really like the Jag orange, never thought it would work as well as it does. A refreshing change, maybe JLR will agree and paint some of their future press cars in orange.

That exterior looks awesome in every way.... change the interior colour to black and it would be perfect.

I really like it other than the front grille badge, the chrome, and possibly the bonnet vents too

But other than that its awesome

Thx for the comments. The chrome detailing is all OE. I am trying to dechrome the car. The rear light rings are proving tricky.

Pre-facelift rear lights don't have the chrome rings. Problem solved.

Agreed. Get rid of grille badge, paint vents orange, get rid of rear spoiler and chrome light surrounds.,

Funny isn't it... for me the grill badge is one of the best parts of the car.... the rear spolier I could take or leave and I agree on the chrome light surrounds but that Jag decal picked out in Orange just makes the front of the car for me.

Spotted this yesterday (just off M40), I dont normally like modded cars but this was awsome. Made me smile anyway.

Was this heading towards Huntingdon from Cambridge on the A14 around 7am yesterday? I saw it by the St.Ives exit going past the bus depot. It really stood out around the sea of grey & black cars!
