Recently my father has passed down his 2000 Jaguar XK8 Convertible to me. I am starting to restore the car to its original condition. The interior needs to restored and I am having trouble finding replacement seats. I have yet to see any Jaguar with these seats. If anyone can help identify whether these seats are a complete custom job or a limited edition that came from Jaguar it would be greatly appreciated.

Members in the XK8/XKR (X100) Tech Section will have answers.

Good luck.

 

Welcome to the forums Ori,

The front seats are the standard 'Classic' pattern fitted to the early XK8. They will not have left the factory with the animals on the head retraints and the dark piping looks larger than standard. Possibly a dealer upgrade but more likely to have been reupholstered at some time.
