Subtle and supercharged. Those are the watchwords for Jaguar’s X350 saloon and a theme this understated Solid Black XJR firmly leans into.
Beyond the appealing colour scheme, it is a low mileage car - just 71,509 miles - with full service history to 71,000 miles. The maintenance continues with a gearbox rebuild at 66,000 miles and more recently attention to the suspension and EGR valve.
Inside, saloon enthusiasts will find a very well appointed car with the usual Jaguar refinements. The rare Black and Cranberry colour scheme suits the car and mixes with features such as electric seats, factory car phone, elm wood veneers and factory navigation to cosset the occupants.
A long MOT to February 2025 with no advisories underlines the impression of a well cared for car in great condition. It is only for sale due to lack of use. There is the added advantage that it is ULEZ exempt.
