... out of the driveway after putting my foot on the accelerator. Another nice feature of the Jaguar is the hybrid gearbox. This means that it will function as a manual gearbox, alongside an automatic, offering 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears. This is really useful for country roads as removing your foot from the accelerator leads the car to slow down as a manual car would. Also, I did get a chance to really put my foot down on an open road whilst using the automatic gears and it really has to be experienced! The feel...more

I have just been a very lucky missbrowneyedgirl! It is somewhat of a tradition in our family to have Good Friday fish and chips at my Uncle's house, so the browneyed family arrived there promptly at 12:30 and what was sat in the garden but a beautiful navy blue Jaguar XK8! I pointed out to mrbrowneyeduncle that it looked a little messy sat there in the middle of the garden, and he promptly handed over the keys in order for me to take it for a spin, thus removing it's presence from the grass. Well, what's a girl supposed to do?...;) Firstly the interior of the car is spectacularly classy. Cream leather seats and a mahogany finished dashboard ... Read the complete review

Having owned my XK8 for over six months and covered 8000 miles, I still have nothing but praise for this automobile. What a shame we couldn’t make this product without help from over the water. The car looks and drives fantastic. I opted for the CATS suspension (as fitted on the XKR) and am impressed how such a large car handles. Still not as nimble as many two seater sports models but as a grand tourer, not much betters this machine. Build quality is faultless. The car in meteorite silver looks gorgeous and classy only beaten by the racier red big brother XKR. I was worried the facelift model would date this present model but am relieved ...

Jaguar XK8: One hell of a sexy car! (189 words)

I used to have one of these, it was beautiful. This is the nicest car that I have seen before. It was a convertable, and when it was sunny the top was always down. If you have ever been in this car you will know why I feel the way I do about it. It has got to be one of the sexiest looking cars around especially with its top down. The drive is brilliant. The girls all love you in it. Also, it has speed. It is not as fast as the 'Jaguar xkr' but it is still fast. If you get one of these then you will probably see yourself cruising anywhere just to drive around in it or to show-off. The bad thing about this car is that the back seats are very ...
