Like a leather-clad luxury time machine, the XJ6 Sovereign is perfect for wafting motoring.
Between 2003 and 2008, I purchased four XJ X350 Jaguars. They have always been exceptional cars, leading me to this one some years later. My last XJ cost £56,000, and I did not want to spend that kind of money again. This was perfect because the condition is excellent, and the spec is similar to the one I paid all that money for, but for a fraction of the cost.

Long, sleek and slender – there is plenty of room inside the Jaguar.
The multi-spoke wheels are in excellent condition, with no real damage or corrosion. All four tyres have a good amount of tread remaining.
Looking from each side, there are no dings or dents along the Jaguar, and all the panel gaps match.
Finished in Silver, the paintwork is excellent. There are some minor age-related stone chips, as you would expect, but in general, it presents very well.
All of the windows are clear, with no noticeable scratches. The chrome trim has a bright finish, and all the lights are free of damage.
Walnut and black leather is a great combination and extremely comfortable.
The front and rear leather seats are in excellent condition, with minimal signs of wear. However, one button on the driver's seat is broken. All four door cards are in good order with no damage.
The carpets are clean and tidy in the cabin and inside the boot. There is a set of mats fitted, but the driver's side is a little worn. The spare wheel is in place.
The black leather dashboard and walnut fascia are in excellent condition.
All instruments work correctly, and no warning lights are displayed. The display shows ~116,780 miles.
The half-leather, half-walnut steering wheel is in good order, with no real signs of heavy use. The buttons are also in good condition.
The 3.0-litre V6 is a fantastic engine to power the XJ6.
The engine starts well and runs like a dream. The car performs well and pulls strongly through the automatic gearbox, which has a smooth change.
The aim of the game was comfort, and the Jaguar does just that! It soaks up the bumps nicely and comes to a stop in a straight line.
Driving the Jaguar is a great pleasure. It’s perfect on a cruise or even around town, where it is effortless thanks to the power steering and automatic gearbox.
All of the switchgear works as it should. The factory unit does have satellite navigation, which works, although it might not be up to date.
A recent service in December 2024 means the Jaguar should be good for a few miles.
The owner's manuals are present, along with two keys and the valet key.
Some invoices are present, along with a printout of some previous service history that I could find. I have spent just over £1,000 in 2024 on various parts and diagnostics, tracing some annoying issues, which are now addressed.
A luxurious saloon ready to give you miles of comfort.

From Trade Classics:
This is a Market Auction listing, meaning we have not visited and photographed the car - instead the seller has supplied the images and written the description. However we’ve done all our usual seller checks, including photo ID that matches the V5, and also actioned a history check on the vehicle - this is a professional check operated by HPi that will highlight if the car has been previously stolen, recorded as being in an accident, or have any outstanding finance - note, this does not include a mileage history check.
Viewings are welcomed, so please get in touch with us via the 'contact us' page - we just need to speak to you first on the phone, have you register on the site, and also send in valid photo ID before confirming a suitable time to visit.
Like all our auctions, if there's anything you're unsure about, no matter how small, then please first ask the owner in the comments area below before placing your bids, as bids can't be retracted and form a binding contract if you win the car - the Buyer's Premium is not refundable in any instance, just like a traditional auction house.
Average annual insurance premium for a like this is via our trusted partner ClassicLine.

*Quote is based on a garaged vehicle in CV32 5QY (Leamington Spa), travelling 3,000 miles per year, 1 driver who is 45 years of age and is free on accidents and convictions – valid .
A reserve is the minimum price that the seller will let the car go for. We work with sellers to set realistic reserves in line with market pricing – we don’t take on vehicles with unrealistic pricing. Reserve met / not met labeling may or may not be announced during the auction – this is just like a traditional auction house, i.e. bidders may only know when they’ve been successful at the end of the auction.
If the reserve hasn’t been met at the end of the auction then we work with the highest bidder to try to work out a deal with the seller.
Auto-Extending Bidding – we’ve developed auto-extending auctions that mimic traditional auction house bidding; it’s a key feature to make sure classic vehicles achieve their true worth. Bids placed in the last one minute automatically extend the auction by two further minutes. So there is no need to leave bidding to the last second.
Security – we operate higher levels of security, so you may need to enter further authorisations against your stored card after you select ‘Place Bid’. All this takes time and may mean you miss the end of the auction by the time the authorisation passes. To guarantee your bid, we recommend at least five minutes are active on the auction when you place your bid.
