The Jaguar XJ V12 Sovereign is one of the last great classic luxury sedans from Coventry and embodies British automotive culture like hardly any other vehicle of its time. The legendary twelve-cylinder engine, the elegant lines, and the exceptional ride comfort make it one of the most sought-after classic Jaguar models today.

The vehicle offered here impresses with its exceptionally well-maintained original condition and a traceable history. First registered in October 1986, the Jaguar has been in the possession of a prominent car enthusiast since 2019.

Shortly before that, the vehicle was imported to Germany from reputable previous ownership in Switzerland and brokered to the current owner via the renowned Jaguar specialist Automobile Gath. Before delivery, the vehicle was professionally serviced and comprehensively inspected there. The Jaguar also received its historic license plate (H-Kennzeichen) in 2019.

The XJ Sovereign is powered by the legendary 5.3-liter V12 engine producing 195 kW (265 hp), whose extraordinary smoothness and confident power delivery are still considered a benchmark for British luxury sedans today. In combination with the comfortably tuned automatic transmission, it creates a driving experience that impressively reflects the character of this model series.

The classic color combination of British Racing Green and beige leather interior gives the vehicle a particularly elegant appearance. Both the bodywork and the interior present themselves in an exceptionally well-maintained state of preservation. No rust spots were found during our inspection.

Prior to the sale, the main inspection including emission test was carried out without any defects found, so nothing stands in the way of immediate registration.
