1990 Jaguar XJ40 | Canterbury, Kent

The Jaguar XJ40 is the angular XJ saloon built from 1986 to 1994, liked for its wood-and-leather cabin and relaxed, comfortable ride. Straight lines and a full-width rubber bumper set it apart from the rounder XJ before it. This car is a 1990 XJ6 with the 4.0-litre engine, and the model reaches forty years since launch in 2026. It wears Regency Red over a Doeskin interior, the colours it left the factory with. Condition is very good: an enthusiast has maintained it carefully and drives it often, so a few small marks of age show, while it stays mechanically dependable over any distance. Its formal, long-saloon shape suits period film and television, music videos and fashion or editorial shoots. In advertising and lifestyle campaigns it works as a hero car or a background vehicle, and as executive transport it brings quiet authority to a country house drive, an office forecourt or an east London street. Weddings and personal hires suit its comfortable cabin too. It is based in Canterbury, Kent.
