BUYING the Jaguar XJ8 Sport (X308 V8)

In the previous video, we checked out a slumbering 2002 Jaguar XJ8 Sport and took it for a test drive before leaving an offer at the garage it was parked at.
Fortunately the offer on this V8 Jaguar (X308 series) was accepted and, with a fresh MOT on the Zircon Blue metallic XJ8, dad and I headed over in his slightly later Jaguar XJ6 to collect it and drive it home. Would the old Jaguar drive home ok?
Having owned three XJ Series Ones, and a V8-engined XJR, I know all too well that there is no such thing as a "cheap Jaguar". While this one was priced very fairly, inevitably there'll be jobs to do on it as problems rear their head after this car's lengthy slumber. No car likes sitting around, especially one with over 20 years of life behind it, so please subscribe to the channel if you haven't already to follow progress with this "modern classic" Jaguar saloon.
Comments and likes welcomed as always.
