This Jaguar Project 8 is a 600-hp, hand-built, wide-body beast—track-bred, ultra-rare, and totally unhinged. A blue missile that turns every drive into a record run.
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2019 Jaguar XE SV Project 8 showing 18,592 miles on the odometer at the time of this cataloging. Finished in SVO Velocity Blue over a black leather and microsuede interior, it is offered by the selling dealer with a clean CARFAX report and a clear title.
The XE executive sport sedan, known internally by its X760 model code, established a name for itself by showcasing athletic performance via its sophisticated construction. It stood out as an engaging vehicle in its segment, boasting exterior design cues from its sibling, the F-Type supercar, as well as chassis dynamics that managed to blend everyday comfort with agile cornering composure.
Building on that already-capable XE sedan, the SV Project 8 was completely reengineered as an all-out performance machine by Jaguar’s Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) team. Each of the 300 total Project 8 vehicles were hand-assembled at the SVO Technical Center in Warwickshire, England. Among the car’s upgrades were a track-focused adaptive suspension, adjustable carbon fiber aerodynamic equipment, unique wide-body panels, and a supercharged V8 that pumped out nearly 600 horsepower.
Car and Driver said, “We were charging into corners at speeds few other cars could handle. The Project 8 is nothing short of epic, a four-door that makes virtually every outing feel like a record run.”
This low-mileage, limited-production Jaguar presents a unique opportunity. It’s a motorsport-derived super-sedan with strong future collectability – a rare gem of English automotive engineering.
