Armoured low miles XJ40 at auction

Postby XJ_Driver » Sat Mar 18, 2017 10:35 pm

Spotted this interesting, low mileage (c.5000 miles) 'Forty coming up for auction in Bicester next month. Armoured too! Shame about the LHD though...

This has been floating around a while. Beside the low mileage, I cant think of any real reason to buy a armoured car? Heavier and slower?
It will be unique though and no doubt a talking point. But at what price?

Some of these cars are for export only.
Why would that be?
