2005 Jaguar S Type 2.7 diesel sport For Sale

I bought this beautiful car just after the first lockdown (June 2020) purely based on the colour and the way it looked. It unfortunately came with no service history and 5+ owners but I had to have it. I live in south west London and I was recommended the independent 'Jag Workshop' (Ealing based) to look after the car. I went there and said do whatever it needs. As you can see I have receipts (please see the photos) totalling just over £3000 in June 2020. I have, on the whole, used this fantastic car to travel up and down the M4 to see family on the weekends back in Somerset. I have loved owning this car as it is so comfortable to drive. 95% of my journeys have been on the M4/ M5/ M40 motorways escaping London. I have only ever used premium diesel in this car on the recommendation of the mechanic. I just drove back to Somerset for the Easter bank holiday weekend and it didn't miss a beat.

Mileage is currently 110408 but may increase slightly.

Reason for selling - I live in Richmond Upon Thames just a few hundred yards from the ULEZ zone and this car is NOT ULEZ compliant which is annoying. I have just bought a more sensible (boring) small car to use for local journeys as I do not travel much to Somerset now so the car needs to go unfortunately. If I lived outside of London I would definitely keep this car.

Good points
- very, very comfortable to drive.
- I think it really shifts when you put your foot down (it has the sport mode button also)
- I spent over £3000 on servicing it in June 2020 and it has never let me down
- the interior is in fantastic condition.
- it is supposed to do 44mpg on the motorway which I believe to be true, it is very frugal for such a large car
- beautiful and rare external blue colour with rare contrasting interior
- MOT valid until October 2022 (just two advisories that I have not had time to sort)
- I have a bluetooth connector that connects my iPhone to the stereo via the radio which is really useful for Spotify/ podcasts/ google maps etc
- I think it is stunning and have tried to really look after the car during my ownership
- two keys (both working)
- easy to use cruise control which is fantastic on the motorway
- great stereo with (single) CD player (all working)
- genuine private sale
- I don’t smoke or have any pets etc
- excellent bodywork in my opinion, especially for it’s age
- electric front seats and all electric windows
- the boot is huge

Bad points
- I drove into my friends wooden gate post a few months ago which has left a large scratch on the front of the car (I haven't made time to sort this) and I have attached a photo. Apparently there is a chance this might be able to be polished/ T-cut out
- the air conditioning stopped working a while ago, the heating works fine and will blow cold'ish at 17 degrees but it just doesn't blow freezing cold on the 'Low' setting. I had the AC re-gassed but it didn't sort the problem. It has only affected me on one (hot August) day during my ownership so I haven't had it looked into any further
- I had a faulty rear parking sensor changed (I have the invoice) but unfortunately the rear parking sensors don't work as they should (mechanic told me it might be able to get sorted but would take many man hours to check all the electrics)
- in the last month or so, on the dashboard, it periodically comes up as 'engine coolant low' I have had the engine coolant checked and it is fine. Unfortunately Jaguars built during this era seem to have electrical problems
- in the rear of the car the headlining is slightly sagging over one of the rear passenger seats (but it is not very noticeable)
- the alloy wheels need a refurb (I have been quoted £50 - £100 per wheel)
- I haven't had time to sort out the two advisories on the last MOT
- NOT ULEZ compliant
- I think it needs new front (and possibly rear) tyres

Viewings/ interest
- I will try to come back to any questions as soon as I can before/ after working hours
- I have more photos but can only upload 12
- strictly no low offers please, I am in no rush to sell and I already have another car
- no test pilots/ time wasters
- this will be sold by cleared funds via bank transfer only
- I will be present on any test drives
- The car is in Richmond Upon Thames (where I live)

Price - £2500
