Wind Back Time
1996 Jaguar XK8 Convertible
Specifications
Description
They say cats have nine lives and quite appropriately, as it takes a long time for Jaguar coupes and convertibles to die.
Fueled by a 290 horsepower V8 and the spirit of its ancestors, the Jaguar XK8 (X100) was a new breed of Jaguar. The standard 290-hp 4.0-liter engine was Jaguar's first-ever V8 and only the fourth all-new engine in its history. It has impressive low-end torque and is a real hoot to drive with effortless acceleration, precise steering and a supple suspension.
