This is a gorgeous, solid car. Truely impressive in the flesh. Great paint and an interior that is just sumptuous! Fabulous condition overall, never damaged or rusted. Drives wonderfully and is just a pleasure to be in. Nice straight body, engine is silky smooth, and the tranny with overdrive is sweet to use. WOW! Please feel free to make an offer.
Rare car here in the states (2.4) was originally sold in the UK we have the original bill of sale from the Bridge Garage LTD, Chertsey, Surrey, along with the queen's tax stamp. Also the original owner's manual and some recent receipts, most notably the carbs were rebuilt. Car starts immediately, runs really well! I am surprised how good this engine pulls and with the overdrive fuel economy is probably pretty good too.
As stated the paint is very nice. A high quality repaint the age of which I am not certain, but It is excellent. The interior was restored by the previous owner to a tune of $11,000 plus. It shows. The leather is in great shape, feels and smells wonderful. The wood is all in nice shape, original. Carpet, door panels, headliner, etc. are all excellent.
OH YEA it has a Webasto sunroof! And it works great, still has the functional wind deflector too. One thing my wife mentioned when we were cruising with the windows and the top open, "This car is really quiet!". It does seem to have very little wind intrusion and noise. By design or luck it is surprising how nice it is.
All glass is good, tires are good, brakes are good, it drives good.
Most of the chrome is very nice. Exception is the driver's rear bumperette has a small ding. The chrome on the rear bumperettes is a little weak, but I'm nit picking now.
The overall effect is one of the most gorgeous of cars. This is one you want to pile your close friends into and go somewhere special. And it's fun to drive, it is a Jag after all.
This car has obviously been very well cared for. Please come see it if you can. It is one of those cars that photos don't capture as well as hoped.
Nice modern stereo.
