Jaguar XK8 Convertible

Jaguar XK Convertible

Jaguars latest XK8, now simply known as the XK, steps up a gear to compete with impressive competition from Porsche, Mercedes and BMW. A truly fantastic drive, the XK8 is hard to fault. Maybe not as fast as a Porsche 911 between two points but the XK is more fulfilling from behind the wheel. Sporting when you want it to be but always refined and composed. The Jaguar XK was foremost designed as a convertible and it shows. Handling and chassis stiffness is excellent and visually the car is close to perfect. The rear seats are only a token offering. From 2009 the 4.2 litre V8 was replaced with an all new powerplant offering a full 5 litres along with a selection of practical and cosmetic refinements inside and out. Power is up by 87bhp without reducing the fuel efficiency.
