1990 Jaguar XJ Vanden Plas Majestic

In 1990 the US market received the Jaguar Vanden Plas Majestic. This was a rare SWB saloon built at a restricted pace of only 527 vehicles. These limited edition saloons featured an uncompromising standard of luxury. A Jaguar has always been an elegant grand tourer. The Vanden Plas was the grandest of the grand tourers but the Majestic was the epitome. It was equipped with all of the creature comforts and was the most opulent way to travel Jaguar. The Vanden Plas Majestic retailed for $53,000 new.

Finished in dazzling Regency Red, the Vanden Plas Majestic had signature features unique to the model. It had special wheel and interior designs to go along with its exclusive exterior. The exterior had hand polished diamond turned alloy wheels with Regency Red spokes. Special gold-plated badges were affixed to both sides of the rear license plate. The featured Vanden Plas Majestic has whitewall tires and standard alloy wheels.

The interior was trimmed in luxurious magnolia leather with contrasting mulberry piping hand stitched by Connolly Brothers. The leather not only upholstered the seating but the door panels as well. Rich hand-crafted walnut graced the fascia, door inserts, center console and rear seat fold out tables with courtesy lighting above them installed into the backs of the front seat headrests. High intensity reading lamps, individual rear headrests, and the contoured rear seats gave the saloon a limousine-style ambience. Wine colored carpet with plush red sheepskin rugs were elegantly under foot.
