Offered for sale is my Jaguar XJ 358 Sovereign, a car widely regarded as the final "true" XJ. Finished in Sovereign black, this "gentleman’s cruiser" combines effortless road presence with the punchy efficiency of its V6 engine. I have cherished this car as its sole owner for the last decade (since 2016), and it has been a feature at the Jaguar Owners Club visits to Gaydon.

Unrivaled Maintenance & Pedigree

This is not your average 18-year-old car. It has been maintained with a "blank check" philosophy, evidenced by a folder of receipts and over 20 services during my ownership:

• Preventative Care: Minor services performed every 6 months, regardless of mileage. While the odometer shows 148,000 miles, the car drives like one with half that distance due to the exhaustive preventative maintenance and recent replacement of all major components (Injectors, Pumps, Belts, and Suspension)`

• Fuel: Run exclusively on premium Shell/BP diesel.

• Main Dealer Heritage: Annually inspected by Jaguar. The most recent health check returned "All Greens"—a testament to its mechanical health.

Major Work Completed (Peace of Mind):

To ensure total reliability, I have proactively replaced high-value components, including:

• Engine: New fuel pump & belt, cambelt, water pump, 6 new injectors, passenger-side EGR valve, and glow plugs.

• Drivetrain: Full gearbox service and catalytic converter flexi kit.

• Chassis: New front lower suspension arms (bushes/ball joints) and rear tie rods.

• Cooling/Air: Top water outlet and inlet manifold butterfly propeller.

The Driving Experience

The fuel economy and cabin comfort remain peerless. It is a car that still turns heads and receives compliments wherever it goes. I am only selling because my growing family requires a 4x4, and this beautiful Jaguar deserves an owner who will exercise it more regularly.
