Default Rare combo - ebay car

I have to say I have never seen red interior like this and not on a coupe not sure if this is the correct section as we do not have an "ebay and for sale watch " here to my knowledge

NO - we do not have an "ebay and for sale watch" forum or thread and won't be having one.

That trim is not unknown. Try Googling Jaguar XK8 + Cranberry Leather and you will find a few examples. There are also threads on the forum discussing the colour.

I imagine its a marmite spec, but I happen to like it a lot.

Beautiful car, until you look at the interior.

If I had a "Silver" Coupe, I would love the Red! That is, so long as the Headliner was was "Ivory" or "Light-Gray"......For my "Black Onyx" Coupe, it would probably fit in very well also! I had a 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Aire "Hard-Top" Coupe that was Black with Red Interior and it looked great! The Headliner in it was "Red" also and not really that bad, as the Seats had "Black" inserts!

Default Red leather

Personally, I quite like it. It would look awful in my carnival red x100 but my x308 is quartz grey with cream leather and I reckon the red would be awesome on that.
Incidentally, from the pictures it looks as though the driver's door has had a less than successful respray (or possibly the rear wing on that side is off).

Glad it's not just me...
Rear wing is off. See rear panel join under LHS tail lamp & very top lhs of boot lid.

Shame as the car looks pretty tidy otherwise. I'd only see the colour mismatch, sadly.

Shame on us for mentioning the Left Rear Quarter! But after looking it over I would have to agree...something has been going on there! Even though it is a beautiful Coupe and I love the Color inside and out! Good Luck with it and I hope you enjoy it for years to come!
