This Jaguar Sovereign 5.3 V12 is a charismatic and refined modern classic British luxury sedan, offered from long-term family ownership and with a solid early maintenance history.

Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 5.3-litre V12, delivering around 223kW to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission.

This original Australian-market example was first registered in December 1987, and has been in the seller’s family since 2010.

The odometer shows 98,654 Kms from new.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

This Sovereign 5.3 V12 is finished in the appealing shade of Solent Blue, over a cream leather-trimmed interior, featuring a contrasting black dashboard, beige carpets, and swatches of wood veneer trim.

It rides on a set of 15-inch ‘Pepperpot’ alloy wheels fitted with Pirelli Cinturato P1 tyres.

Equipment includes headlamp washers, front spotlights, a heated rear screen, an on-board computer, a Jaguar cassette stereo, an electric sunroof, cruise control, electric windows, and automatic air conditioning.

This example has been fitted with a Pioneer CDX-M40 six-CD multichanger in the boot.

The car comes with a fire extinguisher, a leaping Jaguar bonnet mascot, the toolkit in a Jaguar-branded box, the service booklet, the Australian supplement booklet, the owner’s handbook, the electrical data chart, a Jaguar consumer guide, the original audio system handbook, the Pioneer CD-multichanger manual, and two A4 plastic sleeve binders containing an extensive collection of maintenance invoices and history.

The seller will also supply a collection of Jaguar books, and circa $2500-worth of Jaguar spare parts.
