Jaguar Heritage Registered

Factory manual gearbox. Serious health issues forced this very reluctant sale. This is an original UK car and has covered a genuine 22800k miles. The car is immaculate having had a full sympathetic restoration including new front end, new brakes, wire wheels and tyres (original steel wheels available), suspension etc.

Whoever gets it is getting the deal of the century. I estimate that it has cost me around £75 - £80k and two years of work which I was happy to spend at the time as it was my intention to pass this to my son in a few years time. Terminal cancer has unfortunately changed those plans.

The car was shipped to South Africa in it's first year and returned to the UK in the late 80's. From then until my purchase, the car only left the garage for MOT's and covered under 80 miles in that time. Although it is missing a full service history, there are a number of receipts and MOT's verifying mileage.
