Stop the Press – A Better XJ8 on the Market…and a Vanden Plas No Less!

Ignore the 2008 Jaguar XJ8 I wrote about two weeks ago.  There’s a prettier cat….er unicorn out there for your consideration.  It’s a sweet 2008 Jaguar XJ8 Vanden Plas with only 37,000 miles – a one owner car from Hephzibah, Georgia.  Hephzibah is a little town of 4,000 just south of Augusta.  The median income in Hephzibah is $37,000, and 10 years ago one of its residents dropped over twice that for this beauty and has driven it less than 4,000 miles a year.  Named after the Belgian coach builder, it’s all aluminum (or al-you-minium for my British friends), and has an underwhelming 300hp 4.2l V-8.  But it’s an elegant car for highway cruising, with modern features like navigation, bluetooth, a heated steering wheel, air-conditioned and heated seats.  Here’s a review from Automobile Magazine back in the day.  I don’t care for warm British beer, but I dig this black and tan Jaguar.  And of course, the MaxCare bumper to bumper warranty would be a fine investment, too.  Find it here in Charlotte, NC – if the link is broken it’s sold, on hold, or being transferred.
