Um, its in the trunk under the mat.

remove the trunk floor and the battery is on the right next to the spare tire.
If the windows do not lower automatically when opening door (to clear convertible top) and then raise atomatically when door is shut, then check your battery. Right after I purchased my 2001 XK8 used, it cost me $300 at the Jag dealer for a new battery to learn this tidbit.
Underneath the floor of the trunk to the right of the spare tire. There is a cover there that pulls up, and then you can access the battery.
where is the starter located on a jaguar xk8?

Yes, the Jaguar XK8 does have a fuel pump.
I replaced them through the lower mouth on the front of the car.
The battery is under the floor of the trunk on the right side. You can't disconnect it under the hood.
The XK8 is computer chip limited to 155mph.
You'll find that the key goes into a keyhole hidden in the Chrome "XK8" badge on the rear panel. Between the k and the 8 if I recall.
