Vehicle Description
This 1998 Jaguar XJ Vanden Plas is a two-owner car coming from a
cherished home. So you have a premium modern classic loaded with
all the best features, including V8 power. And when an effortless
luxury cruiser like this is also so nicely priced, you know it's an
awesome deal.
The long, low Jaguar profile is instantly recognizable as the shape
that built the XJ icon. There are hints of chrome on the factory
16-inch crown alloy wheels, dual tailpipes, and iconic leaper hood
ornament that all add a touch of class. And Jag fans know that the
special grille and trunk lid brightwork signal this is the
upper-crust Vanden Plas. The factory-correct Topaz Metallic paint
has the right look for a car that has averaged 3k miles annually.
So it makes for the kind of modern classic that has been driven,
but it hasn't spent its life on the daily grind. So you'll
appreciate details like the shine, full-length pinstripe, and
well-respected flowing lines.
The oatmeal tan leather interior is a great harmonizing color
against the exterior. And this premium look is nicely detailed with
a darker tan on the seat piping, door tops, and dash. It's combined
with the special Vanden Plas wood to showcase the craftsmen's
standards in Coventry. The luxury continues with a long list of
desirable features such as automatic A/C climate control, power
windows, power locks, cruise control, power seats, tilt/telescopic
steering column, AM/FM/cassette stereo, and a power sunroof. Modern
features not only mean superior luxury, but also modern safety. So
you get the convenience of dual airbags, side airbags, and
anti-lock brakes. But more than just driver features, the Vanden
Plas is coveted for offering the long-wheelbase XJ. That means
limousine-like legroom for the rear passengers and even thoughtful
details like a fold-down tray table.
Under that leaper bonnet (hood) is a very tidy 4.0-liter
fuel-injected V8. This motor is famous for combining the
engineering talents of Ford with Jaguar's flair for driving
passion. It purrs with buttery smoothness but can growl with the
biggest cats when you plant your right foot. This luxury sedan was
built to make your heart race like a sports car, and so the motor
is mated to a five-speed automatic transmission utilizing the
iconic J-gate shifter. The European engineered fully independent
suspension, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes mean this
executive sedan begs for the backroads.
Complete with the owner's manual, it's amazing you take this home
for the same price that isn't even the down payment for a new one.
This kind of value will not have to stay long at our dealership.
