This particular 1976 model is thought to be one of just 620 V12 coupes produced in RHD and features the optional velour interior. With just two owners from new, it is said to have covered only 32,000 miles. Dry stored for the last 18 years it has just been recommissioned and is said to drive very well indeed. Last serviced at the Jaguar factory, it comes complete with its original British Leyland 'Passport to Service' book. A better example would surely be hard to find.

This particular example is beautifully finished in a very patriotic Squadron Blue, with a complementary tan interior, was delivered new in the UK in 1976. Grateful must the first owner have been for his luxury purchase with air conditioning – readers might recall the summer of 1976 being one of the hottest on record in the British Isles.

Described by the vendor as being in excellent condition in all respects, including engine, body, chassis, interior, transmission and paint, our own inspection clearly provides us with a similar opinion. Offered with all relevant road paperwork and sundry documentation.
