FACTS & SPECIFICATIONS Jaguar MARK VII M -1956

Born on May 1st, 1956 in Coventry, England the Jaguar MARK VII M is an original 6-seater given the nickname „Big Cat“.

Around the time when Jaguar was a company manufacturing mostly handcrafted high quality luxury cars like Bentley where you can find a quite similar look on the models. SPECIFICATIONS I

The Jaguar MARK VII M is TÜV-certified until 02/2017 and was technically checked by TÜV in 2015.According to the information of the owner before (Christian Gloe, Head of ATARI Games Hamburg) the car has now 97.500 km on the tachometer.

Inspections and TÜV were done at Meilenwerk (Jaguar, Mr. Gross) and friends. I was a manager at VW Group and lead several dealerships where I got to know the best experts to service the MARK VII M. The service included yearly full premium clean up of chrome, wood (Walnut) and leather (Connolly) done by professionals as well as change of oil.

The Jaguar owns an Art Decor Blue Light Dashboard lightening and a Blaupunkt Car CD Player hidden in compartment.

A 3-gear Borg Warner Automatic and the 3,4 L, 6-cylinder „Reihenmotor“ engine with 190 HP gets you up to 170 km/h. To secure smooth and fast driving the MARK VII M has a kick-down function. The car is manufactured in right-hand drive (RHD) configuration and has a mileage of 14 L on the outskirt and 18 L in the city.

SPECIFICATIONS II

As I come from the car business I carefully and professionally checked the car before I bought it.

I purchased the car with first paint and invested over 15.000 € in new paint and parts. Insurance and taxes are about 400 €.

So far i had no problem to get any parts. I still got all parts that i needed from England.

You recieve articles, photos and car valuations about the MARK VII M that i got from the previous owner. Additionally you get a documentation of service invoices, qualified professional renovation including paint, an appropriate CD with photos of the renovating process and the car manual.

All important car part addresses are included in the documentation as well.

I assured that all repairs and parts are of perfect quality and done best. I sell the car because I did not drive it sufficiently and i also currently invest in my entrepreneurship project. MARK VII M
