Special edition Jaguar XJ50 now available in South Africa
Jaguar is celebrating 50 years of its flagship model with the new special edition XJ50. Available in both standard or long-wheelbase guises, the luxurious XJ50 stands out with a plethora of exterior and interior modifications.
Viewed from the outside you'll notice enhancements such as Autobiography-style front and rear bumpers, 19-inch split seven-spoke wheels, black grille mesh and special XJ50 badges on the boot lid and fender side vents. Colour choices are limited to four: Rosello Red, Loire Blue, Santorini Black and Fuji White.
Step inside and you'll be met by an anniversary logo embossed on the centre armrest plus a special commemorative plaque in the walnut veneer that wraps around the base of the windscreen. Other highlights include illuminated treadplates and soft-grain diamond-quilted leather seats with Jaguar Leapers embossed in the headrests.
The XJ50 is sold in South Africa in both standard and long wheelbase guises, and power comes exclusively from a 221kW 3.0-litre V6 turbodiesel engine. Other standard features include self-levelling rear air suspension, LED headlights with Adaptive Lighting and soft close doors among many others.
