2002 Jaguar XJ Executive (3.2 litre) SALOON Petrol Automatic

Description

This lot will be auctioned via Historics Classic and Sportscar Auctioneers at The Pace of Autumn; Ascot Racecourse sale on Saturday 20th September. Unmarked condition. Only one previous keeper. Very low mileage. The first XJ was launched in 1968 and the designation has been used for successive Jaguar flagship models ever since. The original model was the last Jaguar saloon to have had the input of Sir William Lyons, the company's founder. With the introduction of the X308 generation in 1997 came a switch from the 'XJ6' nomenclature to 'XJ8', reflecting the fact that the X308 cars were powered by a new V8 engine. The exterior styling of the X308 was similar to its predecessor the X300, with minor refinements such as a change to oval indicator lenses and round fog lights. The interior was also updated to eliminate the instrument binnacle used on the X300; instead, three large gauges were set into recesses in the walnut faced dashboard in front of the driver. The major mechanical change was the replacement of both the inline six and V12 engines with new eight-cylinder V8 in either 3.2 litre or 4.0 litre versions and all were automatic.This delightful Jaguar XJ8 was supplied by Swain & Jones on 26th April 2002. It is finished in Platinum Silver with Oatmeal leather interior and is in unmarked condition. Unfortunately, the service book has been misplaced, however, this has clearly been a very well cared for example and the MoT history confirms the exceedingly low mileage. Jaguar XJ8s are a particularly well-built car and a delight to drive, this one is no exception. Supplied with a V5 registration document, together with a current MoT test certificate valid until 24th April 2026 and a print-out of the MoT history. The condition is certainly commensurate with such a low mileage example. Consigned by Stewart Banks
