Highlights
- Attractive metallic British Racing Green with beige upholstery
- Recent oil and filters, battery, spark plugs and brake system bleed
- MOT valid until 3 January 2028
- Popular model 238 bhp, 3.0-litre V6
The Appeal
The new S-Type was born at a time when car makers were looking back. Geoff Lawson's fresh design blends Mk2 references with a genuine sense of serenity and Jaguar luxury. In its 3.0-litre V6 version with 238 bhp on the pedal, it was also quick.
This 2001 S-Type, 3.0-litre V6, is dressed in elegant British Racing Green with beige upholstery. It has low mileage for its age and is in good, presentable condition.
There are a few cosmetic points to note, acceptable to the buyer or potentially fixable. It benefits from recent, reassuring maintenance including an oil change and brake work, and there is a MOT valid until January 2028.
These are exceptional saloons, very comfortable and relaxing, prized by Jaguar enthusiasts.

This sale is subject to Car & Classic's Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or placing an offer, you also accept the following points:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means European consumer protection rights do not apply. However, you are still protected by Car & Classic's Terms and Conditions.
✓ We require payment of a non-refundable fee if you are the winning bidder at the auction or if your offer is accepted. Please refer to our FAQ and our T&Cs for the specific rates.
✓ This vehicle is Sold As Seen, on an “As Is Where Is” basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are for guidance only, and it is recommended to conduct a full vehicle inspection before purchase for peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fees. VAT may be included or excluded in the final bid or offer price, as indicated in the listing.
✓ We want a seamless transaction as much as you do, so we run an online HPI check on all UK-registered vehicles listed on Car & Classic to verify there are no motor insurance database markers for damage or theft, and that there are no outstanding financial charges, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check if vehicles are recorded as written off in the event of a total loss for insurance when a listing is published on Car & Classic, and we conveniently provide scrappage category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) to help you. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle's status, and it is always wise to perform your own comprehensive vehicle history check before bidding on a vehicle.
✓ Buyers are responsible for collecting the vehicle or arranging delivery.
Vehicle import may incur additional duties and import taxes, so it is prudent to check in advance. It is the bidders' responsibility to confirm import eligibility before purchase.
