Jaguar offering one XJL Ultimate at Gilt.com

Thu, 20 Sep 2012

Jaguar is partnering with Gilt.com to sell a special version of its 2013 Jaguar XJL Ultimate. It will come with a Polaris white paint job and a black interior. This is not an auction. Buyers have to be logged on at noon Eastern on Friday, Sept. 21. First click gets the car.

As a bonus for signing the $155,875 check, you get a vacation for two to London. It includes a stay at the world's only Jaguar suite, designed by Ian Callum. The suite is at a Taj hotel, named 51 Buckingham Gate.

This may be your only chance to get behind the wheel of the XJL Ultimate, because only 30 are coming to the United States. All except the one on Gilt will have an amethyst paint job.

You have to be a Gilt member to purchase the car. But we signed up and it only took a few minutes. Go to the men's section to check out the car.

The London trip includes two round-trip tickets along with four days and three nights at the hotel, which includes a private butler. Jaguar and Gilt throw in a dinner for two in the suite cooked by a Michelin-starred chef, a meet and greet with Jaguar's design team, a bottle of Lanson Champagne and $2,500 Gilt shopping spree to prepare for the trip.

The Jaguar XJL Ultimate comes with a handful of toys. Two iPads are included for back seat passengers, a rear chiller with champagne flutes and a 15-channel, 20-speaker Meridian sound system. It also comes with Jaguar's awesome 5.0-liter supercharged engine with an output of 510 hp.

“A partnership with Gilt.com is a great way to launch the Jaguar XJL Ultimate,” said David Pryor, brand vice president for Jaguar North America. “Designed to attract a customer who has a passion for luxury and a taste for adventure, the Jaguar XJL Ultimate—partnered with an exclusive London getaway—is a winning combination.”
