The Appeal

Designed as a BMW M5-slayer, the S-Type V8 R was a proper old-school sporting Jaguar saloon, delivering 400 bhp and 400 lb-ft of torque via a six-speed automatic gearbox.
This 2006 example looks wonderful in black, complete with a matching interior. It comes with a well-documented service record, including book stamps and several accompanying invoices. The Jag also has a long MOT with no advisories.
