550Nm torque, 6 speed ZF automatic transmission. Runs on ordinary unleaded (95RON). Black exterior with sumptuous Charcoal & Cranberry leather interior. As you might expect of this model, it has power everything:Electric front seats (12 way)Heated front seatsPower & heated mirrorsPower adjustable columnPower adjustable pedal boxMemory settings for drivers seat and pedal boxComfort entry / exitSat Nav (replacement disc needed - £40 on-line)AM/FM radio with single CD at the front and CD multichanger in the bootTelevision (analogue)Touchscreen controls for climate, TV, radio, etcEasy close boot lidAuto headlightsAuto wipersParking sensors front & rearSunblind for rear screenTrip computerBi-Xenon headlightsHeadlight washersElectronic Parking Brake The chassis and body are aluminium not steel, which makes this car very light for it size (1750Kg for a car over 5m long!), couple that with 400bhp / 550Nm and it makes for some blistering performance figures. 0-60mph in 5.0 seconds! Top speed electronically limited to 155mph. But this car is equally at home being the sophisticated cruise machine, it is very very quiet and a real smooth ride thanks to the air suspension. ABS and ESP (stability control) functions along with a sport button for the transmission enable you to select which mode you wish to drive. Mileage is admittedly on the high side at 136,800 miles, but most of this has been conducted on the motorway. The story I was told is that the first owner was a stock broker in London who lived in Cardiff. The car spent its time back and forth along the M4. I have many reciepts and old MOT certificates and was able to put together a graph of its mileage accumulation rate (see last photo). Sad I know, but it was to prove the point. As you can see the first 81,000 miles were covered in just 21 months of use! The remaining mileage was at a pretty steady 9,000 miles / year, which is actually under-average mileage rate. Its not mileage which is harmful to a cars durability, its the way in which those miles are accumulated. And motorways are the least stressful on a cars components (engine fully warm, steady speed, light load, no heavy side loads on the tyres / hubs, no big inputs into the suspension). This is also reflected in the reciepts I have for work done, it is mostly tyres and brakes. The engine is the 4.2 litre supercharged V8. It is NOT the engine which had the Nickasil bore issues or the timing chain tensioner issues. It is smooth, refined and has that great V8 burble when you squeeze the pedal. Transmission is the 6 speed ZF unit which makes the pedal feel very `connected` to the car, none of the elastic band type feeling you get with the older 5 speed trans. Kickdown and sport work great. There is NO oscillation in engine speed when at a steady road speed (which would indicate a torque convertor problem). The car has full service history up to 122,000 miles (mostly from Jag Main Dealers). So effectively it has missed the last service point. I changed the engine oil at 135,500 miles and put Mobil 1 5W-30 into it. The oil which came out was not full of crud or anything like that. The filter was `clean` (no visible metallic particles). When you look into the oil filler on the valve cover there are no signs of coking or sludge accumulation. I changed the air filter at the same time. Tyres are in good condition with plenty of meat left on them. I have had the car for almost 12 months. I am only selling because my wife wants to get a caravan so we need a tow car and we cant have both that, a caravan and the Jag... I spent a lot of time finding this car as I planned on keeping it much longer than I have. I have done less than 2000 miles since I bought it, mostly at weekends and it has not been thrashed. The interior is in immaculate condition, no rips or scuffs to the seats. Only one small area of imperfection on the drivers door card (see below). OK, so there must be some bad points? Well, only a few actually and Im being picky here, because thats what Im like:*Both rear wings have a small dent close to the rear light clusters. Paint is not cracked at all and you only notice it if the light catches it - see picture of OSR dent (circled). NSR dent is even smaller.*Near side rear wheel arch has small scratch / dent - looks like someone caught it with a shopping trolley...*Some minor scuffs to the front wheel rims. These have been repaired to a degree, but theyre not absolutely perfect (a good wheel man could sort them no problem).*The parking sensors have a fault (3 sec continuous beep when you first select a gear to indicate they are not functioning). I have done the listening test and noted that 2 were not `ticking` which indicates a duff sensor. These are about 20 quid each but would take a couple of hours to fit, so I havent done anything about it as I dont have a lot of spare time.*The supercharger belt squeaks slightly when cold. This is a very common fault on these cars and was fixed by revising the belt at 2007 MY. There is a retrofit kit to solve it on these cars - I have that kit (belt, tensioner, idler and brackets), from the Jag dealer, but again havent had time to fit it. This cost nearly £200 and will come with the car.*The offside, outside headlamp washer jet is missing (scrapyard to get a replacement).*Some minor stone chips to the front end.*As mentioned above, the drivers door card has some minor imperfections - looks like a lady with french nails has been using the car as the leather is slightly scuffed around the door grab handle, but its hardly noticable (see pic in extras at bottom).*These cars have a reputation for corrosion on the aluminium body. Some people are obsessed with it... But for no good reason. This car has two small areas, classic places. Front edge of the boot and bottom front corner of door (rear passenger side). Aluminium corrosion isnt like steel corrosion - it wont spread indefinately and `eat` the car! It is present because the anti-corrosion protection was not applied perfectly. It only spreads to the point where the protection is good again - and I guarantee that the couple of spots on this car have not got any worse since I have had it. See photo of the boot edge in the main pics. Pic of rear door is in the extra pics at the bottom. AS YOU CAN SEE AREA IS VERY SMALL AND NO WORSE NOW THAN WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. So, not many faults and a lot right about the car. Mileage shouldnt be a worry as pointed out. Road tax is £270 year and insurance is good if you go to a specialist type of broker (these are classed as future classic or modern classic cars). I use Footman James who were very helpful. Fuel economy isnt as bad as you might imagine. Our weekend use nets around 25MPG (mostly town with a bit of motorway). On a steady run at 70mph it will return 32MPG. As I said I need to sell the car so we can get a caravan. It will break my heart but thats what wives do... :) So the price is £7295 or a close offer. For the right deal I will also get a fresh MOT on the car. I will pass on all the reciepts etc that I have plus copies of workshop manuals that I have acquired. There are two genuine Jaguar keys with the car and the original handbook and service book. Any trial welcome but please no tyre kickers. Im about a mile away from J29 on the M6 (Bamber Bridge, Lancashire). Thanks for looking!!
