1999 Jaguar XK8 Review

It is a beautiful car, I love it ,but I am getting to old to get out of it, and to low for me .
I began my search for an SL63 AMG in early 2016. I looked on line and contacted several dealers with inquiries about various cars they had listed on line, but because this was a big purchase for me, I wanted to be sure the car was as advertised, so I paid for several Mercedes mechanics to look these vehicles over. In each case they came back with one issue or another...one had been repainted even though the car fax was perfect.
When I contacted HiLine, I was a little gun shy and frankly getting tired of looking. My experience with these guys was absolutely A++ every step of the way. Larry and his magician Doryan gave me a car that quite simply is the very best vehicle I've ever owned. It was and still is perfect or very nearly perfect in every way. I even made a trip out to Philly to see the car (from my home in South Dakota), and not only did Doryan take me through the intricacies of this vehicle, he literally taught me how to drive it. I really didn't realize that mine was technically a race ready vehicle. WHAT A BLAST TO DRIVE!!!. I am now looking for a Porsche to replace my wife's Audi TT and won't even consider going anywhere else than Hiline. Thanks Larry and Doryan. I'll see you soon. Go Eagles!!
If anyone questions their purchase, please just give me a call. I would be happy to personally recommend these guys.

Owners of the Jaguar XK8 really dig the vehicle. You can perform much of your own maintenance by using the Jaguar forums and procedures recommended by members. This vehicle was designed and built from the ground up while mechanically it's just another car. This XK8 vehicle is electronically complex with many electronic modules, engine control module, etc. Your obligation is to take the vehicle in every 10000 miles for inspection, this
action will keep your vehicle running in top shape. These cars like any other are an obligation. Purchase a model 2003 and up to 2006 because improvements were made during those years. Do research on the Jaguar XK8 forums and get an idea of what owners experience with repairs. The Jaguar XK8 is a barrel full of monkeys to drive while the XKR supercharged version is a super fast performer but with higher maintenance costs. If your purchasing an XK8 prior to 2003 you need to have the timing chain tensioners checked out by a mechanic and replaced if they are not the upgraded type or they are worn out , this action is extremely important to insure your engine does not damage itself. Before purchasing you really should first take the vehicle to a Jaguar dealership for inspection and they will inform you of any problems, if a dealer does not allow you to do that just walk away.
I purchased a 2006 Porsche 911 Cabriolet from Larry a few months ago, and am finally posting a much warranted review.
First off, I live in Chicago, and purchased the car sight unseen. Larry was a pleasure to deal with during the buying process and had the car shipped to me in a covered carrier which was a nice added touch. He offered me an aftermarket warranty which was actually priced very well, but I declined. The cosmetic condition of the car was awesome. Just as described.
After owning the car a week, I did find two small problems. One was that the heated seats did not work. The other was the A/C was not blowing cold air. I called up Larry, and he immediately suspected the heated seats issue was due to a battery swap which was done right before delivery. Apparently with p-cars sometimes you need to recode the PIWIS (computer system) after a battery swap. He found a local indie mechanic in Chicago that had a PIWIS system and told me to bring it in. They fixed it, along with adding some coolant into the system to fix the A/C. Total parts and labor was around $500 and Larry paid for it without any complaint. This is the mark of a true professional that sees the bigger picture. I will buy from him again!
2006 Jaguar XK8 Review
A blast to drive

I recently purchased a 2006 XK8 to replace a 2001 that caught a deer. The '01 basically survived, but sadly the cost of replacing the hood drove the insurance company to total it. IMO, this is one of the most beautiful cars produced in the last 25 years. And there is nothing being built anywhere today that looks as good. These are not loud cars for as fast as they are (electronically limited to 155 mph). With the top up, you can have a very quiet conversation with your passenger. You might have to interrupt your chat briefly while overtaking loud muscle cars that sound like they're about to explode at high speeds, but that is a mild nuisance that will be left behind in short order. Also, the driver does need to actively watch the speedometer because of this. These cars are so quiet and poised it is difficult to tell the difference between 70mph and 100mph by looking out the window, especially if there is no other traffic.
There are mechanical issues, especially with the older models. Most of the significant ones (timing chain tensioners and cylinder sleeves) should have been taken care of by now. And these were mostly already corrected in the post 2000 models. All 20 year old vechicles are going to have faults, but these are very solid vehicles, and with reasonable maintenance, they are very reliable.
Awesome place with quite the selections of luxury cars. Saw an Audi online that I've been searching for and it was totally legit. Happy I made the trip from Lebanon and think I'll spread the word about this place. Not pushy at all and fair on my trade. Thanks guys.

Always wanted to have this car. Wife won't drive the Miata (stick) though it's fine for me. My sixth Jaguar.
This car is a fast, great handling, comfortable car. I only use it in the summer. I put about 5K a year on her. I do like to open her up at least once a week, just so I remember what she can do. The car is coupe, not many around, so it turns heads. Most people don't know what it is! the convertible models are easy to find.

The ride is unmatched for a sports car. Handling and response is off the charts. Turns head weather at a car show or just driving down the street. People are constantly asking me what kind of car is that. People mistake it for a astin martin all the time and cant believe its a 2002 model.
This replaced an S Class Merc.that I drove for 22yrs a 180 for sure on the XK8..but can one be in "love" w/a car?..bought in 2006 with 19Kmi.has only 31K now.but every mile I treasure,,great for amateur racing too if you deign to.
This is a fun car for two, back seats are tight. Nothing like putting the top down and enjoying a spring afternoon at the beach, or the mountains or just around town
Another beautiful classic from Jaguar... really lived up to Space, Pace, and Grace. High quality leather seats, big and fast engine, sleek design we’ve all come to expect
Emailed them about a vehicle and they returned with answer within a few days

I have owned a 2004 model for 6 years now and have just enjoyed this car's handling and unrestricted visibility when the top is down. Bought it as a replacement for my motorcycle. My kids said I was too old for my bike, so enter the Jag. You are never too old for fun and this car keeps you feeling young. Took it on a four state trip through Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico and was seriously depressed when the trip ended in my driveway. I just wanted to keep driving. Find one in good condition and drive! It is the perfect touring car and has plenty of room for luggage and although the back seat won't accommodate adults, it will handle coolers and what ever shopping bags you accumulate along the way.

For an old car (16 Years) and Only 161K Highway Miles! The Vehicle looks Like New But, It's the buyers expectation what makes the difference not mine since I owned it for 13 Years My opinion is totally diverse with someone new, whom never seen this car and for the Price it is a bargain.
I hesitated buying a used auto, having always purchased new autos for 40 years. My experience with Genuine Motorcars of Florida was beyond what I expected. Truthfully, the experience was much more at ease than a new auto dealer. Nick Burton, the sales consultant did a terrific service for us in suggesting a second car over the initial auto we inquired about thru CarGurus. Once we arrived at Genuine Motorcars we were met by several on the staff and all treated my wife and myself cordially, respectfully. Nick went over the auto several times to answer questions and made the experience a pleasure. Since purchasing this auto my wife and I have enjoyed the heck out of it and I sleep well knowing we did good! 😊👍

Fantastic car for those summer outdoor outings with the convertible top down and the wind blowing through your hair.
I recently bought a used 328i BMW from this dealership. The salesman gave me a really fair deal without any of the hassle you normally go thru at other dealerships. He did exactly as promised, was totally professional and made my experience there unlike any auto dealer. I would highly recommend this dealership to anyone simply because of his friendly and honest professionalism. If your buying a used car, you really need to go here!!

This is the first Jaguar that I have owned. I have had it for 11 years. Even though it was a 2nd car, with limited driving, I can honestly say that I have had very few problems.
Everything from start to finish was great and painless. No pressure, no games. Ash is a thru car guy and understands the importance of customer service. He parks every car in the garage, and stands behind his selection. I used to work in dealerships and I know the process of purchasing a car takes hours and it is draining. We were in an out fast and enjoyed the staffs company. As a car enthusiast and a former car sales manager I highly recommend doing business with Mr. Mohaj.

The performance is WoW I got it Because 2003 was the new 6 speed trans and they improved the Motor . Lots of toys It's Reliable I was Surprised for a Jaguar , Because I'm a Chevy man
I came here after various dealerships when shopping for my new car. They were very honest and straightforward and answered all my questions. I was able to walk away with a better deal then the competing dealerships I went to earlier that day. Was even able to get a warranty 54 months. Would definitely recommend this dealer to others they have many low mile vehicles as that is what they specialize in.

Jaguars have enjoyed a rich history of performance and styling that transcends time! Well built by craftsmen and engineers who utilize form and function as well as design! This car has been pampered as evidenced by it's well kept appearance and has had regular services performed by the previous owners. The convertible top is in excellent condition and the leather is soft and supple with just a hint of wear on the driver's seat. The A/C is cold and the Harmon Kardon sound system works perfectly and all combined make for a superb drive for every day or for a weekend getaway!
Mike Carson (the owner) made it a hard point to personally take care of us! We were in an accident and had the longest, worst experience our insurance company. We called and Mike personally told us not to worry about our insurance claim. We went in to the dealer, there were so many cars and SUV???s we didn???t know which to choose. We drove a few, and loved the Infiniti QX56 we drove. Mike got us amazing financing and we were able to pocket our insurance money!!!! We even got an aftermarket 3 year warranty at 0% interest. Thanks Mike!!!! Even the owner of the dealership cares. Amazing!!!

I bought my XK8 used with 14K miles on it, so it was virtually new. It is a 2004. It drives and handles very well, gets decent gas mileage, is unique - you don't see many around. It has plenty of power with a 4.2 ltr V8 engine. Interior is beautiful and functional. I am tall, so it is sometimes hard to see as the rear view mirror is in my path of vision. NO back seat room for a passenger, but good to throw a handbag or jacket - also makes it not so closed-in feeling with some space behind the front seats. Love the wheels for 2004 - very stylish and unique. Women love this car, and I think it is a girl's driving machine! Sorry guys!
