Here is an opportunity to own the last of the real breed of Jaguars. This is an absolutely beautiful last year example of the iconic XJ (308) Vanden Plas. This car has been extremely well maintained and is current on all maintenance, including new spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, oil change, serpentine belt, 4-wheel alignment, breather system cleaning and injection system cleaning. Within the last 500 miles the following work has been performed: all four shocks were replaced, new General Altimax 225/60R16 tires, coolant crossover piper (coolant flushed), transmission completely overhauled (valve body rebuilt, reinforced front drum which is the weak point in these transmissions, factory pentosin fluid used), headliner reupholstered, several pieces of wood veneer sent out for sun cracking repair, new battery, new trunk struts, new floor mats. This car does not have the problematic nikasil engine, only steel lined engines were used in 2003. This engine came from the factory with the last revision timing components, the earlier generation tensioners were prone to failure. This car has a beautiful and somewhat rare color combination. Factory Alpine sound system with recently replaced rear subwoofer. There is some wear on the driver seat leather as to be expected from a 11 year old car, the center console leather has some wear however I have a replacement piece of leather that will be installed prior to sale. There are no warning lights or performance issues, this car drives as it did from the day it left the factory. Current high end luxury cars would be hard pressed to drive as nice as this car. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere in the country. Buyer will be responsible to arrange shipping or pick up. I have car listed locally and reserve the right to cancel the auction early if it sells here. This vehicle has no warranty, expressed or implied. Thank you for looking!
