This publication has an interesting 5 page article on an XK8 manual conversion by Elite & Performance Jags in Derbyshire, UK. They used a 1997 XK8 and fitted a US-built Tremec six-speed unit sourced from an Aston Martin Vanquish:

There are some V6 S-Types with manuals. Here's one in Florida. https://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/cto...793333569.html

I owned a 2001 S Type with 3.0 V6 and 5 speed Getrag transmission for about 5-6 years. Absolutely great driving car. Plenty of power, slick shifting trans, and great handling as it only weighed about 3550 lbs. It had lived a hard life before me, and after a few years the paint was pretty shot, along with a few other misc. maintanence items, so I traded it for my Cadillac CTS. But that Jag was fun to drive. It even got 30 mpg on the interstate.
