Description

V437 GJN was first registered on the 13th of September 1999, supplied new by Grange Jaguar of Essex. With a warranted mileage of 57000 and supported by an exceptional service history, it's clear this has been a very well cared for example that has been subject to meticulous maintenance. In 2023, the Jaguar was subject to a full machine polish giving the Topaz Gold Metallic paintwork a deep finish and lovely shine. Additionally, the paintwork was protected by an 8-year machine polish.

Until 2012, the Sovereign returned to the supplying dealer for servicing at 2041, 6659, 10410, 13962, 19890, 20242, 20812, 21084, 21915 miles. Further servicing has been carried out at 25838, 31318, 37017, 44720, 57534, and 55116 miles. When in for service at 31318 miles, the Jaguar had the timing chain replaced along with the tensioners and water pump.

For a car with low mileage and a fully stamped service book, it completely lives up to expectations on the road. The 3996cc V8 engine pulls firmly up to the national speed limit with the 4-speed automatic transmission changing through gears smoothly. Being the SWB model, the Jaguar takes on windy country roads without the wallowy feel you get from many luxury saloon cars.

Grandeur is the only fitting word to use when it comes to the interior. Leather, electric adjusting seats provide superb comfort and support. Convenience takes centre stage for the driver with electric wing mirrors, power windows, climate control, hydraulic sunroof, and cruise control. The Sovereign badge indicated the top of the XJ line-up, this combined with the low mileage and impressive documentation accompanying the vehicle make it a tremendous collectors' piece to be further appreciated.
