Magnificent car. Why can't Jaguar build cars like this any more?!

They did, I had one almost identical to that in the video. I now have it’s latest equivalent, an XJ V6 Portfolio, believe me, it certainly looks different from the outside, inside, I opted for the same colour scheme. It is very luxurious interior, with many improvements and new tech etc. still a large gents club car feel. The only thing I miss is the woode steering wheel, and gear knob. I am not a great.fan of the pop-up silver knob, and so far haven’t used the the ‘manual’ paddle shift on the deterring wheel. Other than that it’s one beautiful car! University of course, it is also the last they will make.

Just wonderful.

They did look good back in the day. Proper gentleman's car.

Always love the shape of these and still looks the bollox today

Jaguar can bring this car back, make it a taller a bit more spacious. Add the latest technology and luxury to match s class. Its a classic shape that will never age.

Some body has looked after this beautiful motor really well cannot tell you how much I love it wish I had the money to run and own it 😍 and do it the justice it deserves speechless 👏 ❤

You couldn't wish for a better car I'm just a dreamer!

I had one of these same spec, best car I ever owned.

Beautiful example of a beautiful car

Timeless.

A rare find in this condition and milage. These were the last examples of a traditional jaguar XJ, far superior to the modern offerings. Someone will be a lucky new owner, i hope they keep it in mint condition.

Sadly the XJ is no more. I tried to sit in one while considering purchase, I'm only 5'10" and had to dip my head markedly just to clear the roof, so I passed on it. My 2007 is easy for ingress and egress.

@@peoplehavetherights I have the same problem, at 5'11" driving with your head hitting the roof is not a good idea. My last one was a 2008, and had room to spare. I hope the new owner sits in it before bidding.

Spectacular car. Excellent presentation.

Just wow How I wish that was mine. I have a pair of e46’s & an e46 m3 or an xjr or s type r are my dreams

i have a 2005 example of this motor on 100k mileage. just picking up air suspension problems and had an exchange zf box dropped in but the car is beautiful and we take it to italy from uk every year. is requiring a bonnet and boot respray in the next few months. no way am i getting rid of it. petrol 3ltr doing 29mph visual classic and a great ride.

I have the same car , 2008 , I really love it ,

Such a beautiful imposing car

You can almost visualise a director of a large company sitting in the back reading the Financial Times. " Heathrow please James" he tells the chauffeur.

that is just lovely !

Beautiful car

If this car was a series 3 in 4.2 or V12 I would be first in the queue . All other Jags post series 3 were "wide of the mark" and Jaguar didnt even know it . Let me know if a series 3 comes in .

Very similar to mine. What would be the expected selling price for this.

Absolutely fantastic. Loved watching the video. Took me back to my twenties when I lived in England. Just wondering the price and also if you have any other vehicles from the late eighties.

This car is to be sold in their auction on the 29th October. You can bid online, by phone or in person details are on their website. GUIDE PRICE IS £16,000 - £18,000 An excellent example with some tlc to the paint and perhaps better looking alloy wheels. A rare find at this low milage and condition, most have over 100k on them and rust issues. Treat yourself if you have the funds.

@Barbarapape

Жыл бұрын

@MARTIN WEAVER A lot more, you would need to outbid the Jaguar traders who are prepared to pay high prices for a low milage mint car. It only needs some tlc to the paint and it's ready to retail with a high markup. I think it could go for at least £30k.

I've got a 2007 v6 petrol that's just rolled over to 45k. I'd of been very interested in this if it wasn't a dirty diesel!

Nice old man’s car.

Dreadful jerking camera movement, so rubbish views of it all really! Do you drink espresso all the time? Sorry, love the car...hated your presentation!

Who on earth is stupid enough to buy such a badly made, unreliable, out of touch, obsolete , traction engine like that! In the US they’re scrapping 5 yr old Jaguars because they’re now worthless ? Be honest with yourself!

There are still thousands of X350 shape and the earlier XJ40 shape on UK roads with a easy supply of parts and lots of Jaguar specialist garages and main dealers to keep them going. Many of them over 200,000 miles.

Quite quick for what they are and quite quick to fail as well, they suffer from oil starvation and it’s when not if, steer well clear of them.

The earlier cars did suffer. These later cars had an updated oil pump that made a big difference.
