1999 Jaguar Sovereign SWB 4.0 litre V8 XJ8. For Sale

I am selling my superb Carnival Red Jaguar Sovereign SWB XJ8 4. 0 litre V8 which I have owned for the last two years. I am the second owner, the previous owner having owned it since new from April 1999.
The Short Wheelbase are very rare and was a special order. It combines all the driving dynamics of the XJR (but with Sovereign damper settings) with full Sovereign luxury. A real drivers car!

It is in superb condition and, with a little work could be concours. It is immaculate inside and out, it has always been kept in a garage. The car has been driven carefully for the last 113, 000 miles and has full service history with all the service stamps in the service book with Jaguar dealerships.

The pictures do not show this car in its true beauty. The interior is cashmere and sable leather with burr walnut cappings to the dashboard, & doors etc. Everything is in working order, including air conditioning, heated front seats, cruise control, trip Computer, ABS, cassette radio, etc.
The list of extras include a sunroof, rear sunblind, front fog lamps, overlay carpets, boot liner, mud flaps, replacement exhaust finishers, aerial & a full-size spare wheel. All Starburst alloy wheels are original and in good condition & the current MOT runs until May 2020.
Tyres were replaced at 105, 000 miles, Varta five year guarantee battery replaced in December 2017, Automatic gearbox box oils & filter changed at 110, 000 miles, Last service at 110, 000 miles,
The car was fully waxoyled in box sections, doors,& underneath in November 2018 so that this lovely example will last for many more years to come.
This has simply been one of the nicest, most comfortable, most reliable cars I have owned. These days, it is only used occasionally. Fuel consumption on average overall is 25. 2mpg.
I am parting with it reluctantly, & I am keen that this car goes to an enthusiast or connoisseur who wants one of the best X308`s available.
The car comes with three sets of keys, a drivers handbook with maintenance info & service stamps, plus all the following books issued by Jaguar in a leatherette pouch including vehicle care, security system, sound system, service dealers, radio code, & a Jaguar video cassette giving information on the car.
I am near Edenbridge in Kent. Come & see the car, you will not be disappointed.
