The Jaguar X350 XJ, produced between 2003 and 2009, marked a significant departure for the luxury British automaker. Stepping away from the traditional, boxy design of its predecessors, the X350 embraced a sleek and modern aesthetic, characterized by flowing lines and a distinctive sloping roofline. The design was penned by Ian Callum, who would go on to become Jaguar’s Director of Design, and it successfully reinvigorated the XJ's image, attracting a younger, more dynamic clientele. Under the skin, the X350 was built upon a new aluminum-intensive platform, offering a combination of strength and lightweight construction. This platform facilitated the use of powerful yet efficient engines, including the 4.2-liter V8 and the 4.4-liter V8 diesel, both boasting impressive performance and smooth operation. Beyond its visual appeal and impressive powertrain options, the X350 XJ offered a suite of luxurious amenities, including a premium leather interior, advanced climate control, navigation, and a sophisticated audio system. It was also a technological pioneer for Jaguar, introducing features such as an electronic parking brake, adaptive cruise control, and a head-up display – technologies previously unseen in Jaguar models. The X350 XJ’s success was solidified by its blend of sophisticated design, refined performance, and advanced technology. It cemented its place as a genuine competitor in the luxury sedan market, competing head-to-head with the likes of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and the BMW 7 Series at the time. While the X350 XJ may be a decade old, its timeless design and capable performance continue to impress, making it a sought-after classic for those looking for a taste of British luxury.
