STORY

The XK8 was a grand tourer launched in 1996 to replace the long-running XJS, and it was the first Jaguar to use the new AJ-V8 engine. Offered as a coupé and convertible, it combined flowing styling with modern refinement, with the supercharged XKR added for extra performance. It remained in production until 2006.
