Default Potential 2004 XJ8 Owner

Hey, All.

I am strongly considering purchasing a 2004 XJ8 that I test drove today. I love the aesthetics of this vehicle. Black -exterior, Light tan-interior...A true gem.

The previous owner took VERY GOOD of this beauty. She is clean inside and out. The exterior paint still has that showroom gloss to it...hence the reason for my username: BlkBerri

I stopped by here to read up on the experiences and opinions of current Jaguar owners.

Looking forward to spending some quality time on this site if that Jag is in my future.

BlkBerri (Desiree)

Welcome to the forum Desiree,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

The four door Jaguars always look good in black. There's so much more to these cars than just transport!

Condition of the paint and interior is a very good indicator of how well the previous owner has cared for the vehicle BUT service history is also crucial with any Jaguar. Check the service record is continuous with a service every 12K miles or 12 months (whichever comes sooner) and question any gaps.

Follow this link XJ ( X350 & X358 ) XJ6 / XJ8 / XJR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X350 forum for help, advice and information.


You can also visit the US Mid Atlantic Region forum by following this link USA Mid Atlantic - MD VA DC DE WV - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums. I hope the XJ8 checks out OK and you are soon back here as an owner.

Graham
