2008 jaguar XK Convertible reviews

jaguar XK Convertible reviews by year of make:   2006  2008  Read all reviews

With its contemporary clean lines, the Jaguar XK Convertible is an instant head turner – a car that manages to look fast even when it is standing still. The Jaguar XK Convertible entered the market in 1997 under two different guises – the XK8 and the super-charged XKR. It adopted the Jaguar XK Convertible name in 2006 after being unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show the year before. Notably, the design for the Jaguar XK Convertible preceded that of the coupe, meaning there were no restrictions. The Jaguar XK Convertible is an athletic and sleek car that seems perfectly proportioned and yet completely unique.

Jaguar XK Convertible XK8 2008

5 star review

On first glance this sleek stunning Cat sits purring on the driveway, whilst its looks would not look out of place on the Milan Catwalk, and the interior leaves you feeling like you’ve had a night in the Ritz Paris. Once you hit the start button it immediately changes, it throbs like a triple root canal with no novacaine, the engine sounds like Barry White at his seductive best, unbelievably this is on tick over, Whilst your toes dance towards the accelerator, with all the anticipation of a lottery winner on there way to collect the cheque. Once on the open road, you don’t have to hoof the accelerator, to see what this car is all about, it effortlessly climbs through the gears like Chris Bonnington on steroids. The roaring engine, is definitely Steve McQueen-esque in ’Bullit’. Excitement is overtaken by the realisation of the sheer force of this car, it has more grunt than a wild hog with 12 inch nostrils. In a nutshell if you can Get one, its a must. Sheer luxury, like having Elle Mcpherson on your arm and Sharon Stone under the covers.
