Great condition & low mileage: Jaguar XJ8 (X350) 3.5L V8 in Seafrost with Sand Leather

Jaguar XJ8 SE 3.5 V8 (X350) – Only 60,200 Miles – Rare Seafrost Metallic & Sand Leather

Purchased as part of a collection of Jaguar future classics, the current owner has spent nearly £5000 on the car, but has not had the time to enjoy it. From the purchase in early 2023 it has lived in professional dehumidified storage and covered just a handful of miles. In fact having covered around 10000 miles a year from 2003-6 the car has clearly enjoyed ‘pride and joy’ status ever since with just a couple of thousand added to the clock every year

A Perfect Classic Jaguar Specification

Finding an X350 Jaguar XJ8 with just 60,200 miles is exceptionally rare. Finding one in this specific colour combination elevates it into a true collector’s category. The Seafrost Metallic paintwork shifts beautifully between soft green and metallic silver depending on the sunlight, and it is paired perfectly with the bright, airy Sand leather interior. It is the ultimate traditional British luxury aesthetic.
The paintwork  shines up very well, although there is a faded area on the boot lip and some very small areas of paint bubbling on the leading edge of the boot lid and just below the chrome trim and at the very bottom edge of both rear doors. Photos available on request.

Key Highlights

  • Low Mileage: Averaging just a fraction of normal annual mileage, this V8 engine is barely run-in and silky smooth.
  • Documented History: Comes with 5 stamps in the original service book, proving it has been cared for properly over the years.
  • 12 Months Peace of Mind: Sold with a fresh 12-month MOT, ensuring it is ready for the open road immediately.
  • The Sweet-Spot V8: The 3.5L unit delivers 260 bhp of effortless, quiet power, offering the same refinement as the 4.2L but with better fuel efficiency.
  • Aerospace Aluminium Body: The revolutionary X350 chassis means it is incredibly light, agile to drive, and immune to traditional steel body rust.
  • The Magic Carpet Ride: Equipped with Jaguar’s self-levelling CATS air suspension, which just glides over the road surface.

Interior Condition

Step inside a beautifully preserved cabin featuring traditional, old-world British craftsmanship. The Sand leather seats are plush and show minimal wear, perfectly complemented by flawless genuine wood veneers and deep-pile carpets. It is a warm, bright, and incredibly inviting place to be. The headlining has started to drop in places, however.

This is an future classic in great condition that you can drive every single day. For the price of a basic, used hatchback, you can own a low-mileage, flagship British luxury cruiser in a highly desirable colour combination.
