Description
September 2000 Jaguar XJ Sovereign LWB (X308L)
Rare Long-wheel base Sovereign spec example of the handsome X308 series Jaguar
4. 0 AJ-V8 petrol engine developing 290Bhp driving the rear wheels via 5-speed automatic transmission
97, 000 miles
Finished in Seafrost Metallic with cream hide interior piped grey with light wood trim. The Sovereign spec represented the highest Luxury spec, featuring more elaborate/ expensive wood veneer, fluted leather seats with contrasting piping and the usual array of electrically assisted goodies.
The suspension set-up is more biased towards comfort and touring with 17inch alloy wheels and a higher profile tyre (better for all the pot-holes! In addition, the Sovereign model features a polished grill, rear light surround and boot garnish.
Being a LWB version (just 11, 566 built were 4. 0 Sovereign LWB out of a total build of 126, 260) the car is 5inches longer offering more rear legroom and a slightly higher rear roof line for added headroom.
This smart example was inherited last autumn following the death of a family member who had owned the car for the preceeding 5 years using it for bi-annual long comfortable trips to France and Belgium.
The history file includes the V5C showing 7 former keepers, the owner's pack, 2 keys, current MOT valid until March 2027, recent bill for £1, 769 to include a service, AC re-gas, repair to both chassis legs/ shock absorber mount and wax oil.
Other bills on file include a £1, 596 spend in 2022 on a gearbox servie, MAP sensor, o2 sensor, replacement key and MOT, full service in 2021, purchase invoice from 2020, brake discs and pads in 2020.
Ready to be enjoyed, this smart example offers huge lucury and capability from an era when jaguar still made decent cars and their engines weren't made of chocolate.
