The Appeal
Perhaps the last traditional facade Jaguars ever built, the X350 was a handsome, straight-lined vehicle that perfectly balanced the old - carrying over much of the X308's signature lines of low, gentle slopes - and the bang up-to-date, with a new aluminium unibody and a distinctly modern self-levelling adaptive air suspension. The resulting car didn't quite hit the zeitgeist that they were hoping for - but for a nostalgic enthusiast, the X350 is an easy sell. That perfect blend of the old and the new is bound to resonate with any Jaguar aficionado.
This fine example boasts a very low mileage, plenty of time on its MOT and only one former keeper. It's a very handsome car from top to bottom and will prove to be a very capable classic for the lucky new owner - a luxurious saloon that's sure to cosset driver and passenger in remarkable style.
