2004 Jaguar Vanden Plas on 2040-cars

Offered at auction, is this beautiful and luxurious 2004 Jaguar Vanden Plas with the powerful but smooth 300 horsepower XJ V8 engine. It is the 'Top of the Line' model in the Jaguar XJ8 Series. This vehicle is in pristine condition both interior and exterior. In addition a transferable extended warranty with one year remaining is included. (This has a pro-rated premium value of around $1,000 and a nominal $50 transfer fee is required). It has a clean and current CARFAX. The color combination is just gorgeous: Quartz Gray Metallic exterior with Dove Gray Leather interior and rich Burl Walnut Wood Trim. The Navigation System firmware/software DVD has been replaced and updated to the 2012 version.

I am in my mid-seventies and no longer drive my cars frequently, hence the relatively low mileage and superb condition of this vehicle which during my ownership has been regularly serviced. (Those service records will be passed on to the new owner). It has always been garaged and by all appearances, has never been smoked in. The original retail price of this car was over $69,000.  Here are some of the outstanding features:

A typical experience is 7-14 days from the date the vehicle is picked up until it is delivered to your destination. Verify with the "Carrier" for an Estimated Time of Arrival to be sure.
