Description

Its actually classed as 2008 model, ie the Limited Edition 'Big Bumper' model (Dec 2007). Its had one former keeper plus myself, virtually all motorway miles so engine, supercharger, gearbox and suspension are in perfect running order, plus the engine was changed at 146508 by Swallows Jaguar at a cost of 2623.57. The doner engine also had Full Jaguar service history, as verified byCharles Hurst Jaguar, of 61861. So the replacement engine has only actually covered just over 100k miles in total, and feels like its just run in! Fabulous colour combination, inside and out. Touch screen satnav, as well as bluetooth phone connection and voice activated everything if you train the system. Heated and cooling seets, dual climate controls, icy aircon, front windscreen tint band, privacy glass all round, electric rear blind, auto dipping mirrors, auto drop for reverse, full closure alarm on remote, aswell as full open ie hot days to cool the car as you approach.Full automatic levelling suspension according to passengers and boot weight, car also lowers automatically by 20mm when exceeding 50mph, or by entering Sport Mode. Its a big car with a huge street presence, but is light and nimble to drive. This part due to active suspension and steering, and partly due to the fact that it only weight the same approx weight as a VW Golf as its mainly aluminium! 0-62mph 4 seconds. Top speed is normally 155mph however I think this vehicle has had the limiter reset to no limit. Paintwork and body work in near perfect, with only one small dent in NS rear quarter panel, and two tiny scratches on the rear bumper. Im only entertaining selling as I just done get to drive it in my current location, and for the last four years that has even mean I stuck in a 30 or 40 mph spped limit due to 15 miles of roadworks nearby! Its an incredible car both in looks, performance and especially handling/braking, and is a rare sight on the roads if you like to stand out. Reference the Cat N, it was very very light frontal, which meant bumper, 2 rads, headlight support and alloy crumple bar. I have all pictures and saved parts replaced so the severity is recorded. Remember its a financial descission by the insurance company and I didnt get a say in it. But I did get it repaired at a trustworthly local bodyshop who also can be consulted if required. Next MOT due 29/05/2024, Full service history, Grey, 2 owners, £11,995
