The Appeal
There are other executive saloons, but traditionally, nobody has done an executive saloon quite like Jaguar. Take this S-Type: stylish, supremely comfortable and blending natural wood and leathers in a way that simply says ‘sumptuous.’
This car is finished in fetching Racing Green with a Barley leather and Mocha interior. For those who love driving and long trips it is usefully equipped with the economical 2.7 litre 200bhp turbodiesel motor. It is a low mileage car - under 70,000 miles - and has had just one keeper.
It is a reluctant bereavement sale. It comes to market with a recent service and long, advisory-free MOT to August 2025. This is a very well specified and surprisingly preserved example of a much-loved Jaguar saloon.
