1998 Jaguar Xj8 183k Miles Runs Great! Needs Rear Hub/axle Repair. No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Lawton, Iowa, United States
Offered for sale is a 1998 Jaguar
XJ8 with 183,217 miles. The body and undercarriage of the car has some rust, as
can be seen in the pictures. The engine was replaced by Jaguar at about 80k
miles, and the transmission was also replaced at 100k. I have used the car for
the last few years. The car ran and drove fine until last week, when the left
rear hub bearing failed in the hub carrier and the wheel now wobbles
excessively, so it is not currently drivable. There is an issue with the
electrical system, as the engine warning light, traction control, stability
control, and ABS lights are all on. The speedometer does not work, but the
odometer still logs mileage. The rest of the gauges work fine. The windshield
has a crack along the bottom of the glass. The aftermarket radio and speakers
have been removed. The car was painted at some point, and some of the paint is
chipped off of the front and rear bumpers. The Bridgestone Potenza tires were
put on new this summer. Engine oil and filter were just replaced at 183,000
miles. The A/C, heater, heated seats, and sunroof all work.
This car can either be repaired and
driven, or could be used as a parts car. I am selling the car because I do not
have the time to fix, and need a truck instead of a car. Email with any
questions. This is a no reserve auction, highest bidder wins. Good luck and
happy bidding! |

Jaguar I-Pace named World Car of the Year
Wed, Apr 17 2019NEW YORK — The Jaguar I-Pace has been named World Car of the Year, an award meant to honor the most significant new car introduction and conferred by an international jury of automotive journalist judges. The group announced the winners of additional awards at the New York Auto Show, with the Audi A7 named World Luxury Car of the Year, the McLaren 720S recognized as World Performance Car of the Year, and the Suzuki Jimny named World Urban Car. The I-Pace additionally took home two other awards: World Car Design of the Year and World Green Car of the Year. The WCOTY team of 86 jurors hail from 24 countries, and the organization is independent and not tied to any publication. This is the 15th year for the awards. For this year's World Car of the Year award the top three finalists were the I-Pace, the Audi E-Tron, and the Volvo S60/V60. Previous WCOTY winners were the Volvo XC60 in 2018 and the Jaguar F-Pace in 2017. View 74 Photos
Jaguar launches the new E-Pace into a barrel roll | Autoblog Minute
Fri, Jul 14 2017After months of testing – some of which we caught in spy photos – and a little teasing, Jaguar has officially entered the compact crossover space with the launch of the 2018 E-Pace. And it was a fairly grand entry, too.
Can a Jaguar XKR-S be drifted while blindfolded?
Thu, 27 Dec 2012Bring together a 550-horsepower Jaguar XKR-S and a rain-soaked skidpad, and it's almost impossible to not end up in a sideways drift... accidental or on purpose. With that in mind, the gang over at Autocar got a hold of the monstrous XKR-S for the latest installment of "Will it Drift?," only they raised the stakes a little by attempting the feat with a blindfolded driver
We've driven the XKR-S a number of times here at Autoblog (including a First Drive, Review and Quick Spin), so we weren't at all surprised to learn that blind drifting in the car is possible. But what is remarkable is the ease at which it happened. This, of course, can be credited as much to the car as to the driver, Steve Sutcliffe. Check out the impressive video for yourself, which is posted after the jump.
