The Jaguar XJ is the flagship sedan from the British manufacturer. It rivals the likes of the Mercedes Benz S-Class, the Audi A8L and the BMW 7-Series among others in the segment and is known to be one of the most luxurious as well as stylish saloons to move around in. However, buying a new Jaguar XJ will easily set you back by more than Rs. 1 crore, so that option goes out of the window almost instantly. But what if we say that you can own an ultra-luxurious, 5,000 petrol engine powered Jaguar XJ for less than the price of a brand new Honda Civic. That’s right, because the video below by My Country My Ride shows a pre-owned Jaguar XJ L luxury saloon that is up for sale at an asking price of just Rs. 19.5 lakhs! Check out the video below to see the interiors and exteriors of the car in detail.

As the video above shows, this Jaguar XJ L is one big sedan that is fit for kings. At an asking price of Rs. 19.5 lakhs though, it becomes an absolute steal and if you have been planning on buying a luxury car, maybe this one is the deal for you. It is a 2010 model Jaguar XJ L draped in all black. The car runs on 19-inch alloy wheels and has a 520-litre boot space. As for the odometer reading of this beast, it has covered around 33,000 km which is quite less even for a car like it.

As seen in the video, the car looks pretty well-maintained. Both the interiors and the exteriors of the car are in quite a good condition but for those who may seriously consider buying this car, do give it a thorough check as one can’t be sure of a used car. Talking about the exteriors, this Jaguar XJ L is much longer than the regular XJ as it is the long-wheelbase version of the car. Talking about the dimensions of the 2010 model Jaguar XJ L V8, it measures 5,247 mm in length, 2,110 mm in width and 1,448 mm in height along with having a wheelbase of 3,157 mm.

It has an aluminium monocoque chassis that is clothed in aluminium panels, all of which translated into a kerb weight of just 1773 kg. That’s not all though, as this car comes with really accurate and communicative steering. In fact, Jaguar equipped the same steering rack on the 2010 XJ L V8 as on XFR super-saloon which means driving this car is quite fun. Don’t expect it to behave like a sports car though.

The inteiros are draped in high-quality materials like leather and wood. Despite being a 2010 model, the Jaguar XJ L comes with enough toys to beat any car at the price range it is being offered in and even several notches above. Some of its features include a massive panoramic sunroof, electric front and rear seats with memory and massage functions, large infotainment system, digital instrument panel display, and surround camera system among others.

Powering this beast is a supercharged 5.0-litre V8 engine that churns out a meaty 385 Bhp of power at 6000 rpm along with a mind-numbing amount 625 Nm of maximum torque at 2500 rpm. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission that sends power to the rear wheels of this mammoth.

So if you have been looking for a luxury car to buy, this one is a good choice for you. One important aspect to consider here is that the maintenance and service cost of this Jaguar XJ L will be much higher than the Honda Civic or any other car in the Rs. 20-25 lakh price bracket. Therefore, go for it only if you can afford to maintain it or else the car will burn a hole in your pocket every time it goes for servicing.
