Lot details Registration No: PPX290S Chassis No: 2S10211BW Mot Expiry: Sept 2014
The XJ model range was launched in September 1968 and was the last Saloon able to boast the input of the company's founder, Sir William Lyons. The new Jaguars/Daimlers drew almost unreserved praise from the motoring media, with Motor magazine commenting: "The company has produced results which we believe every competitor throughout the world, from Rolls-Royce downwards, cannot afford to ignore." This right-hand drive, home market, long wheelbase Sovereign is believed to have had new front wings fitted prior to the vendor acquiring the car from a deceased estate. He now regards the Series II bodywork as "exceptionally straight with well-fitting panels", the Green paintwork as "excellent" and the Beige cloth interior trim, 4.2-litre straight-six engine and four-speed automatic gearbox as "good". `PPX 290S' is accompanied by service history up to 58,000 miles (the odometer currently indicates an unwarranted 66,308), and tax disc valid until the end of February next year.
