1967 – Jaguar 420 G, Chassis No. G1D77136 French vehicle registration document

“British refinement powered by a legendary 6-cylinder engine” Unveiled in 1966, the Jaguar 420 G succeeded the Mark X and became the British make’s new flagship model. This large, prestigious saloon retained the elegant and imposing lines of its predecessor, whilst benefiting from a number of aesthetic and technical improvements. Under its long bonnet sits the famous 4.2-litre inline-six engine, producing 245 ch, paired with either a manual or automatic gearbox. Fitted with independent suspension on all four wheels and four disc brakes, the 420 G combines comfort, refinement and performance. Sold new in France by the importer Royal-Elysée, this car is said to have had five previous owners before its current owner purchased it in 2021. It is currently in good overall condition; the bodywork has been repainted in the past and the chrome trim is well preserved. There are a few signs of corrosion on the bodywork and underbody. Its spacious interior has been preserved in its original condition; the red leather upholstery has developed a superb patina and the extensive wood trim is in fine condition. Maintained since 2018 by Prestige Automotiv, this particular car is in good working order. Its engine has been replaced with a 6-cylinder unit from a more modern XJ6. It should also be noted that the gear lever mounting will need attention and that the electric window on the front right-hand side is not working. An iconic large saloon from the 1960s, the 420 G deserves to be rediscovered today.
