The Appeal
The Jaguar Mk2 needs no introduction, it has firmly cemented its claim in history as one of the most charismatic and best-looking super saloons from a time where there was nothing else on the road that could keep up.
This example has been kept for the past 21 years by the same owner, the same owner that offers it up for sale today. Having not found the time to drive the car as much recently due a change in family circumstances the owner has decided to very reluctantly offer up the car to a new custodian.
The car has had major work done in 2002 and regular maintenance and repairs have been kept up with since. It has a few sections that are starting to show their age as you’d expect 21 years on but it remains in good, useable, working order.
