Default FS 2005 XJ VDP British Racing Green

I am ready to sell my 05 VDP. It is extremely well maintained and beautiful inside/out. I bought it in 2009 with 22K miles on it. It is in better shape now than when I got it. Rides/drives and smells like a new car still.

Whoever buys it will get an awesome car.

Only selling because I bought an XK8. No longer driving the XJ.

Asking 15K OBO.

82K miles now.
NAV (2009 disk),
Winter package( heated steering wheel / windshield, front/rear seats)
18 inch BBS Monaco wheels w/matching spare - solid lugs nuts too
Continental tires are 60% - still nice and quiet, no abnormal wear, nitro filled

Car has had regular oil changes and tire rotations.

Was under select warranty until last March.
Stuff replaced by Jaguar dealer during last 4 years (most of it 6 months ago):
  • Battery
  • Factory floor mats
  • Windshield (heated)
  • Brake pads & rotors
  • Torque Converter (trans fluid changed too)
  • Coolant tank
  • Throttle body
  • Rear shade
  • CD changer
  • Trunk lift cylinders
  • Hood lift cylinders
  • Wishbones
  • Control arms
  • Ball Joints
  • Anti roll bushings
  • Stabilizing link
  • Front bumper cover (somebody hit me)
  • Rear bumper cover (somebody else hit me)

IS the VDP green actually BRG or that metallic slightly lighter green of the Super?

I still have it. A few weeks ago I stuck it on a local lot as consignment. I needed the garage space. :-)

That would be me
I'm happy as a clam (why are they so happy?). I'm excited to see and drive it in person.

Rothwell is the person another enthusiast wants to buy a car from.

Car is sold. Ross picked it up on 10/4. He is a great guy. I am so happy my beloved VDP went to a good home.

Thanks Dave. My suspicions proved right - Rothwell is the type of man you want to buy a car from a real Enthusiast with a the capital E. I'm very pleased, enjoying it more each day. I've already put a 1,000 miles on her, getting 25mpg in mixed driving...headed home with her now.

Congrats to Rothwell for the sale AND to another forum member too, excellent as it stays in the family.

So glad you're in the XK8 and going nowhere!

Huge congrats to you Ross on a great car, many happy motoring miles.
See you on the forum....
