Just found my 2000 XK8. Got it from the original owner, who happened to be the wife of the dealerships owner. Only 40K miles! Feel like a won a jackpot.

When you guys get near my age, I'll fess up.
However, I can still slip in with little effort. Getting out is a kind of a roll left as I help one leg out, but it works and I'm just all smiles any time I'm around my car. If you always wanted one of these cars, try your damnest to get one now. Don't drag it on as I did. You'll never regret it. You might get one with some problems, but hey, I just had to return a shirt because it had one long sleve and one short one..Tell me how that happened and I'll put it in my book........Ha !!!!

33 here!
Ive been in love with Jaguar Coupes since I was 7 tho.
It was just a matter of being able to afford one. It just took that long to reach a point of financial stability in life. Then a nice deal came along and I couldnt afford NOT to spend 8k for my 2000 XKR with 46k miles.
I just tightened my throttle cable this morning!

54 and two weeks with my 03 XK8 convertible. Was looking for a convertible. Always been a muscle car guy. Last ride was a 1970 Nova. Gave it to my son when I got into bikes. Was looking at Z28s,Vettes etc. My wife found this and I couldn't be happier. Fast enough,comphy,classy and easier to get out of then a vette. Which is what I almost bought. Got a few issues which my son and I can easily address. Love driving if. Easy to drive normally but if you jump on it smiles all around.

Just turned 79. Any challengers for being the oldest. Still doing my own maintenance. Just overhauled the front struts. Have done my upper tensioners a couple of years ago.

Wink Still love my cars...

I will turn 70 at the end of this month. I still feel like I am 40, but the mirror don't lie. I enjoy working on my 2002 XK8. It is much different than my older cars,and I like a challenge.

I take my hat off to you EZDriver, I'm nearly 59 and thought I should maybe cut down on home maintenance - that now seems just plain silly!
