Description:
Good Afternoon Buyers, I am selling my Jaguar 2001 XJ8 out of NEED and not WANT. Right now I am facing a rough time in my life and my daughter is very sick so the Jaguar needs to go!. As far as the car is concerned the Vehicle runs and drives and the exterior was kept in pristine condition. The Jaguar has some mechanical issues which needs attending to. 1)Jaguar needs the timing tensioner tightened or replaced, 2) the abs control module needs to be replaced and 3) there is areas of rust like bubbling along the wheel welds in two locations. It needs a passenger side rear side light connectors are still there just needs to be replaced and set. The frame is solid and when waxed this car shines. The only reason I am selling the car is my daughter was diagnosed with a rare form of disease that attacks the central nervous system causing violent, harmful and extreme to severe seizures. The doctors here in WNY have run extensive tests and I've driven off the road nearly 40 times since it first occurred last month. I have 1 daughter and she is it for me. I am not looking for empathy as the world has lost all sense of empathy in the past decade. I am looking for a buyer who is mechanically inclined and can see this as an investment and collectors item and at the same time be helping me as a seller by Paying it Forward to me.
In reality after 15 years with the Jaguar its considered Normal Wear and Tear, The timing chain tensioner in the original XJ8's were solidified with a plastic based material that corrodes over time. Since 2005 they have made new ones that are metal and fit perfectly. I dont have the time to fix it and I am beyond mechanically inclined when it comes to Automobiles. The inside is in good condition and the exterior needs some tlc and someone good with small body work. I am truly looking for a Quick Sale today. I am very honest about the vehicle and will not sell you a Dream.
The cost for repair is about $1200 that is why the price is so low. The car has 116, 430 miles very low for 15 years. All service records are up to date. The title is clean. No liens. The vehicle is as is, runs and drives. Contact me at 716-449-9794, I am very open to any offer ANYONE may have. Thank you.
