Exterior and Interior
The exterior maintains its stately presence with black paintwork complemented by polished brightwork, a signature Jaguar hood ornament, and the iconic “Vanden Plas” script on the trunk that sets this trim apart. Chrome Kent alloy wheels complete the elegant look and sit perfectly within the Series III body lines. Step inside, and the Vanden Plas treatment becomes unmistakable: rich burl wood spans the dashboard and doors, while beige Connolly leather with piping elevates the cabin’s sense of craftsmanship. The classic Smiths gauges, wood-rim steering wheel, and neatly arranged climate controls all evoke the timeless charm of British motoring. The upgraded rear cabin includes additional air vents and footrests exclusive to the VDP trim, offering elevated comfort for rear passengers.
Engine
Under the hood lies Jaguar’s legendary 4.2L inline-6, equipped with electronic fuel injection for smoother performance and improved drivability compared to earlier carbureted models. The engine bay retains the correct Series III layout, with the long alloy valve cover, side-mounted intake setup, and factory cooling components visible. Power is sent through a 3-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels, providing the characteristic smoothness that the XJ is celebrated for. Independent suspension at all four corners, power disc brakes, and power steering help maintain the poised, supple ride these sedans are known for. This Vanden Plas delivers a mechanical experience defined by refinement, comfort, and quiet confidence—everything expected of a flagship British luxury sedan.
