Sellers description:
ORIGINAL LOW MILEAGE JAGUAR, 2nd OWNER SINCE 30K MILES, WITH CAR NOW AT 41K. ORIGINAL OWNER WAS A LOCAL DOCTOR WHO BOUGHT IT NEW, AND 2nd OWNER ACQUIRED IT CHRISTMAS OF 2000 WITH 33K MILES. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN HIT, NO FRAME DAMAGE OR REPAIR, BODY IS STRAIGHT, NO DENTS, SOLID WITH NO RUST. IN THE 12 YEARS OF IN THE 2nd OWNERS POSSESSION, AS YOU CAN SEE, HE SPENT MORE TIME REMOVING PAINT THAN HE DID DRIVING. HE
HAS NEVER DRIVEN THIS CAR IN THE WINTER. HIS INTENTION
WAS TO PAINT THIS CAR A DIFFERENT COLOR BUT AS SEEN WAS NEVER COMPLETED. HOWEVER, THIS IS A TRUE DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH. THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. ANY MOULDINGS AND TRIM THAT HAS BEEN REMOVED IS WITHIN THE CAR. THIS IS NOT MISSING ANY
TRIM PIECES. ALL OPTIONS AND GAUGES FUNCTION AS WOULD
BE EXPECTED. THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE
OCTOBER 26 2010 WHEN IT WAS TAKEN TO THE STATE EMISSIONS
STATION. IT DID PASS EMISSIONS TEST, ON RETURN THE VEHICLE
SUFFERED ALTERNATOR FAILURE. VEHICLE WILL NEED TO BE WINCHED ONTO CARRIER FOR PICKUP

WITH A FRESH BATTERY THIS CAR TURNS OVER BUT DOES NOT START. IT MAY BE SOMETHING AS
SIMPLE AS A CLEANING OF THE DISTRIBUTOR, POINTS,
OR WHATEVER SOURCE OF SPARK. AS MENTIONED IT
WAS RUNNING WHEN STORED.

ALL ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS INCLUDED, WINDOW BUILD SHEET, ODOMETER DISCLOSURES, OPTIONS ORDERED, AND MORE. A
STATE OF CONNECTICUT TITLE WILL BE ISSUED ALONG WITH
A BILL OF SALE, AND EXPORT DOCUMENTS IF NEEDED.
