The Appeal
For those in the market for a compact estate, this top specification X-Type offers something rather different to the usual German premium brands. Channelling classic Jaguar looks with a generous approach to the application of wood and leather, it is really quite something.
Equipped with the torquey 3L V6, AWD, Sovereign specification and estate body, it is what enthusiasts consider to be the ‘ultimate’ X-Type. It is a pre-facelift car finished in smart grey metallic with a well-kept beige leather and walnut interior. Inside and out it is in good order and features desirable options like the rare BBS alloys, factory navigation and front and rear parking sensors.
The history file shows 16 stamps to 71,374 miles, of which 14 are from Jaguar main dealers. Recent work since the vendor acquired the car early last year include fitting a set of quality Bridgestone tyres in April this year. Since purchase we’re told that it has been dry stored.
There are a few points to note in the details provided below. The MOT runs to July 2027, so there is plenty of time to sort any issues the buyer identifies. Practical, luxurious and quick - this X-Type has a lot going for it.
