January 24, 2008: After an extensive search, the time had come to trade the Lincoln Mark VIII in.

I spent about 6 months looking for a replacement, and settled on the 1998 Jaguar XJ8-L seen in front of the showroom in the photo above.

I bought the 61k original mile Lincoln the week before I moved to Missouri in June 2003 for $5,500. Five years and 68k miles later, it was time to trade it in.

Traded the 1996 Lincoln Mark VIII for a 1998 Jaguar XJ8-L.
