Highlights

Low mileage
Long MOT

The Appeal

The S-Type seen here is a fine example of Jaguar’s executive saloon for the early 2000s. It shares its name with, and takes styling clues from, the ‘60s S-Type and continues to fly the flag for refined, elegant sporting saloons.

This particular car benefits from low mileage, having reportedly been stored off the road for some time by the previous owner. Its interior is in fantastic condition, with smart leather seats and polished walnut trim, while the exterior remains very presentable.
