2005 JAGUAR S-TYPE V8 R AUTO

4196cc V8, auto. This supercharged Jaguar S-type R is in impressive overall condition and comes with a long MoT to 22nd July 2027. The vendor tells us it “drives very well and sounds great”, having been recently commissioned after spending a few years off the road. We're advised that it falls into a lower tax bracket, despite being a facelift model.

It's equipped with a performance exhaust, parking sensors and 18in original alloy wheels, and the black leather interior features heated seats with memory function, cruise control and an aftermarket Arden gearknob. The air conditioning reportedly blows cool but not ice-cold.

Recent work has included fitting a new alternator, power steering pump, wheel bearing and fuel pump. The 18in alloy wheels were also stripped and powder coated, and fitted with a set of 4 new tyres. The car comes with a few maintenance receipts and MoT certificates, current V5C and the full handbook pack. Its service book records 9 services up to 72k miles in 2016, and the odometer displays 86,615 miles.

The registration number is non-transferable.
