Please,
I have found an add for a jaguar XJS 4.0 V8. Does such a car actually exist
with a V8 motor. If yes, may one find it in Europe or only in US ?
Where can I find piece of information about that car and motor ?

In the states, over there some people change the V12 to a Chevy 350 cu in.
Some people call them by names = Lumps.
Go to http://forums.jag-lovers.org/index.php3org and read more about it.
Hope you will find what you are looking for.

But I saw one, with a V8 Jag, as if it was the 1996 new jag motor !

Much better version of a 'Lump' :-)
XJS only came with a V12 and much later an XJ40 six.

Yes, jag has had a 4l v8 since about 96/97 as an option. I beleive
that since 98 all xj sedans have v8's. I believe the latest 2002+ have
4.2 l v-8. Best look at jag-lovers.org to find out the details
