The Appeal

From 2009 the X150 was facelifted, the improvements adding to its already compelling package of lightweight aluminium bodywork and sleek E-Type inspired style. Key amongst the changes were the introduction of a 5litre, 370bhp version of the super smooth AJV8 engine and adoption of the XF’s modern rotary gear selector system.

Finished in fetching dark grey metallic with a complementary black leather interior, this car benefits from all those improvements. The result is a very quick yet supremely comfortable GT. It is also a high specification Portfolio model with a host of luxury trim including electric memory seats, premium sound and factory navigation.

Its four keepers have kept on top of the maintenance and it presents in good, usable condition. The current MOT runs to August.
