Pre-bids

2008 Jaguar X358 XJ6 2.7L Diesel

Highlights

  • Smart Midnight Black car with anodised five spokes
  • Powerful and economical 205bhp V6 diesel engine 
  • Distinctive private plate included
  • Only five registered keepers 
  • Well maintained and regularly serviced 

The Appeal

The X358 was the last of Jaguar’s traditionally-styled big saloons, this final facelift of the X350 receiving a raft of cosmetic improvements that make them popular with marque enthusiasts. 
Finished in slightly menacing Midnight Black - an impression enhanced by a set of anodised five-spoke alloys - this well-maintained, low-keeper car combines its considerable luxury with a parsimonious 2.7L V6 diesel that is both powerful - 205bhp - and economical. 
The X358 excels as an executive saloon. Its lightweight aluminium bodywork imbues it with durability and a surprisingly agile approach to handling. This tidy example is a chance to discover one of Jaguar’s best saloons.
