1985 Jaguar Sovereign 4.2 For Sale by Auction May 23rd 2021 For Sale

By 1985, the long-running first generation of the Jaguar XJ, which had been in production since 1968, was to be found in much-updated Series 3 form. Offering, as ever, superb luxury and smoothness, the cars had been brought up to date with the addition of such advances as fuel injection for the 4. 2 straight-six and 5. 3 V12 engines, plus from 1983 a trip computer. In 1984, the ‘Sovereign’ name, previously used on the Daimler versions, was transferred to Jaguar and used to denote the new top-of-the-range model. With every luxury one could hope for in the mid-1980s, Jaguar Sovereigns – as with all XJs - found great favour with those who wanted the best in traditional British style and comfort.
This 1985 Jaguar Sovereign is the 4. 2-litre straight-six version. Producing 205bhp and driving in this instance through a 3-speed Borg-Warner automatic gearbox, this drivetrain combination gives a superbly smooth driving experience. This example, in its classic Jaguar colour, is in good all-round condition and comes with a large file of documents from early in its life. It also comes with a current MOT and a current V5C.

This, over 60 other classic cars, automobilia and collectables will be offered for auction on May 23rd 2021 at our new venue Showell Farm, near Chippenham, SN15 2NU. Fully illustrated catalogue at Richard Edmonds Auctions website.  Over 500 lots of spares/ automobilia on May 22nd 2021
