The Appeal
We won’t see its like again. And looking at this handsome Racing Red X150 5L, you can only conclude how that is a genuine, deep and proper disappointment.
Because the X150, the last of Jaguar’s illustrious line of GT cars, was the best. The lightweight, corrosion-resistant bodywork echoed the E-Type while under the bonnet was the juiciest version of the firm’s highly regarded AJV8 engine - the 380bhp 5L.
To that compelling mix, this car adds elevated Portfolio specification, which brings a host of added features including premium Warm Charcoal leather, piano black veneers, factory premium infotainment and multi-function electric seats.
This lovely example has been well looked after, a run of regular servicing by main dealers culminating in February 2024. Since then, the car has covered few miles. It has clearly been looked after since th bodywork paintwork and interior are all well kept. Equipped with advisory-free MOT to April 2025, this pretty example looks ready to enjoy.
