Description Full service history; no fewer than 23 service stamps; 66,857 miles; MOT is valid until 11 April 2026 First registered in August 1998, this Jaguar Sovereign V8 represents a wonderfully preserved example of Jaguar’s late-1990s luxury saloon, combining traditional craftsmanship with effortless V8 performance.

Finished in classic and rare Sea Frost Green with light green leather, the car has had four former keepers and has been in the current ownership since June 2022.

Powered by the 3,996cc petrol V8 paired with a smooth five-speed automatic transmission, the Sovereign delivers the refined, unhurried driving experience for which Jaguar is renowned.

The current mileage stands at just 66,857 miles, a modest figure that is well supported by an impressive history file.

The car benefits from a full-service history with no fewer than 23 service stamps, most recently serviced by a Jaguar specialist in April 2025 at 66,108 miles.
