2002 Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6

Highlights

• Highly original and well-kept example
• Summer-only use and always kept garaged or under cover
• MOT valid until September 2027

The Appeal

Reviving an old and much-revered name, the Jaguar S-Type brought a welcome dose of retro-inspired elegance to the executive saloon class. The 3.0-litre V6 variant strikes a fine balance between refinement and effortless performance, and paired with a six-speed automatic gearbox, it makes for a relaxed and capable cruiser.

This metallic green example has enjoyed a particularly cosseted life. Its previous keeper used it exclusively in summer, primarily for car rallies, and garaged it over winter. The current owner has continued this pattern over approximately two and a half years of ownership, taxing it for just six months of the year and keeping it under cover when not in use. The vendor reports that the paintwork presents very well, with only a minor scratch on the passenger rear door, and that the underside is in very good condition thanks to its sheltered existence.
With MOT to September 2027, this well-kept, highly original Jag is ready to meet its next owner.
