Current V5 present. Paperwork includes a Service booklet containing 14 stamps, a printed DVLA check, MOT certificates, and invoices.

The vendor has provided the following:

• Bought from Matthewson's in September 2022
• First registered in 1998 and now with six former keepers, and benefits from light recent use by its current owner, who acquired the car in September 2022
• Since purchase, it has been kept in secure, dehumidified storage and only modestly exercised
• The car is accompanied by its current V5 and a service book bearing 14 stamps, attesting to consistent maintenance over its lifetime
• A selection of invoices is also included, covering key works and upkeep over the years
• Recent highlights include an air conditioning re-gas in June 2023 and a comprehensive service in October 2022 at 58,432 miles, which included an oil and filter change, rear brake pad replacement, and full brake lubrication
• Of particular note is a large quantity of mechanical work in March 2020 at 57,005 miles, during which a gearbox issue was resolved through cable adjustment and rotary switch replacement
• At the same time, underside corrosion was addressed, and a host of suspension components – including top wishbone bushes, ball joints, and subframe mounts – were renewed
• Other documented maintenance includes a new starter motor (2015), battery (2018), and fuel pump (2019), with a full set of tyres fitted in 2011, then showing only 53,182 miles
• The exterior remains largely pleasing, with good paintwork throughout, though there is evidence of light stone-chipping and some corrosion beginning to appear at the extremities of the sills and rear arches – minor flaws common to XK8s of this vintage
• The cabin is well-preserved, with inviting pale leather that has worn with dignity; the driver’s seat bears a small tear
• The car has just passed a fresh MOT with no advisories, which runs until 22nd May 2026
