Description
Ex-Royal Fleet Jaguar XJ 5. 0 LWB Portfolio
We are proud to present an extremely rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique Jaguar XJ 5. 0 LWB Portfolio, finished in a regal Indigo Blue over Navy Hide.
What makes this particular XJ special is it was part of the Royal Fleet and has a distinguished history, offering an unmatched level of exclusivity.
The sale of former royal vehicles typically comes with certain modifications, as specific technology and security features – such as police lights and security devices – are removed before leaving the fleet. Furthermore, royal ownership is often kept discreet, with limited official documentation provided to preserve privacy. However, in this case, we have official Jaguar documentation, showing its specification and who the vehicle was initially sold to – J3147 – Royal Household.
The royal connection adds a layer of historical significance that sets this XJ apart from any other example available today. However, beyond its provenance, this XJ has been meticulously maintained throughout its life. The service book is fully stamped, with annual services carried out without fail, and it has just recently undergone its most recent service, leaving nothing for the next owner to worry about.
It is well known that blue is a favoured colour among the Royal Family, making this XJ not only elegant but also a fitting reflection of its former prestigious role. The understated nature of this long-wheelbase XJ belies the luxury and performance that lies beneath its sleek exterior. While it could easily blend into any scenario with grace and discretion, those in the know will appreciate its association with royal circles, elevating it far beyond a typical example. The Indigo Blue paintwork, paired with the sumptuous Navy Hide interior, creates a harmonious and distinguished aesthetic – a colour combination that is timelessly sophisticated and exudes a sense of calm and refinement.
Despite being a 2010 model, be under no impression it lacks in creature comforts. The level of equipment these Jags boast, even by today’s standards is extremely impressive, rivalling many modern luxury cars.
The front seats are heated, cooled, and offer massage functionality, ensuring the utmost comfort for the driver and passenger. The rear seats are equally luxurious, featuring both heating and cooling options, while the heated steering wheel adds a further touch of opulence.
Technologically advanced for its time, this XJ is equipped with adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, and a full Bowers & Wilkins sound system, providing a concert hall experience on the road. Rear window and rear screen blinds offer added privacy, while the television and entertainment systems ensure passengers are always catered to on long journeys.
Under the bonnet, the heart of this XJ L is the mighty 5. 0-litre V8 engine. A perfect companion for both serene cruising and more spirited driving, this engine offers effortless power and refinement, delivering the kind of performance one expects from Jaguar’s flagship saloon. The V8 has the muscle to smoothly accelerate away from any situation with ease, yet it remains quiet and composed, the perfect embodiment of Jaguar’s philosophy of ‘grace, space, and pace.’
This is not just an opportunity to own a superbly engineered and luxurious XJ Long Wheel Base, but a rare chance to acquire a piece of modern automotive history. A car that, with its royal connection and elegant specification, stands as a symbol of refined power, subtlety, and unparalleled craftsmanship.
This truly special vehicle is now available for its next discerning custodian, offering a perfect blend of royal heritage, luxury, and Jaguar’s signature performance.
