The Jaguar XJ-X308, produced from 1997 to 2003, marked a significant shift in the British luxury carmaker's design philosophy. Departing from the traditional boxy XJ lineage, the X308 introduced a more rounded and contemporary aesthetic, drawing inspiration from the revolutionary XJ220 supercar. Its sleek, aerodynamic lines were a testament to Jaguar's commitment to modern design, while still retaining the brand's signature elegance and sophistication. Underneath the skin, the X308 boasted a robust and refined platform, sharing components with the Ford Taurus, yet engineered to Jaguar's high standards. The result was a car that offered a blend of comfort, performance, and luxury that set a new standard for the segment.

The XJ-X308 was offered with a range of powerful engines, including the iconic 4.0-liter AJ-V8, a testament to Jaguar's heritage in engine engineering. This engine was renowned for its smooth power delivery and distinctive exhaust note, creating an exhilarating driving experience. For those seeking a more frugal option, a 3.0-liter AJ-V6 engine was also available, providing a balance of performance and fuel efficiency. The X308 was available in a variety of body styles, including saloon, long wheelbase, and even a sporty XJR variant with enhanced performance and styling. Inside the cabin, the XJ-X308 provided a luxurious and comfortable environment, featuring premium materials, advanced technology, and meticulous attention to detail. The X308's combination of classic design elements, modern engineering, and luxurious amenities cemented its place as a true icon of British automotive excellence.
