Description

AC Youngtimer offers a 3. 8 litre Jaguar S-Type in very good condition. The S-Type, which succeeded the MK II, was an achievement, retaining the typical Jaguar styling of the period but with much more sophisticated technical developments, making the car much more pleasant and easy to drive. The MK II's rigid rear axle was replaced by an independent double wishbone suspension, which transformed the car's handling to such an extent that its roadholding was a benchmark for a decade.

The S type also corrected some of the MK II's shortcomings, such as the heating system and, thanks to the car's new design, also reduced the car's weight by more than 150 kg. This car is of French origin, which is unusual, and above all its odometer is in kilometres and not miles.

Like all our cars, this vehicle benefits from the following services: - Vehicle with a valid roadworthiness test - 12-month warranty as standard - Possibility of delivery anywhere in France - Possibility of trade-in or even exchange for a classic vehicle - Production of the vehicle registration document in your name - Transformation of the vehicle registration document into a classic vehicle registration document The vehicle we are offering will be sold ready to drive, i. e. with the following mechanical work carried out or completed within the last year:

- Engine drain and filter change - Gearbox drain - Brake system check (overhaul of drums, brake hoses, wheel cylinders, etc.) and brake fluid change - Ignition and carburetion check - Petrol supply system check The car's exterior paintwork is new (done a year ago in our workshop) The chassis also has no corrosion.

The woodwork is being restored and the car will be delivered with the woodwork redone. The front seats will be redone when the car is delivered, as the current leather is torn in places. The rear seats are in good condition, but have a few cracks due to age.

The roof lining, a Jaguar disease, is not detached and is in good condition. The electrical equipment is functional, and the wiring harness has been revised. The engine, the excellent 3. 8L, provides the car with first-rate performance. The car is surprisingly easy to drive for a car of this era, and requires very little time to get used to. In short, this is a beautiful, racy, powerful car that you should absolutely come and try out (by appointment).
