Recently released in the United Kingdom and Europe, the new Jaguar Sovereign (pictured) and other models in the range are due in New Zealand early in 1987. In spite of huge early demand for the recently announced Jaguar XJ4O range, New Zealand will receive its full 1987 allo-
cation of the new cars, according to Geoff Shenton, regional manager for overseas sales. Some United Kingdom Jaguar dealers are already quoting waiting periods of up to a year for deliveires and nearnew Jaguars are being bought by people willing to pay a $3OOO premium on the delivery price of
Jaguar, according to Mr Shenton. No cars would be removed from New Zealand’s allocation to make up the United Kingdom shortfall, and it was expected that the new model would make a significant contribution towards increased sales in 1987, after its launch in New Zealand in a few months, he said.
