Hi. I have a Seafrost green (Very light metallic green) 2007 VDP with 50k miles. Near mint certainly describes it. I bought it from a 78 year old gentleman who was the original owner and always had it serviced at the dealer. It's not really for sale but I paid $17k and would let it go for that if you are interested. Located in Cincinnati.

Thanks. I'll hold out for a Portfolio.

Well, I found my 2006 Super V8 Portfolio. Southern Cali Car. Higher miles (89k) than I would have preferred, but full dealership maintenance its entire life. I had a 3rd party pre-purchase inspection. Everything was grade A except a small transmission pan drip which the dealer had fixed. Everything worked. New 20" tires. Good brakes. It's physical condition is 8 out of 10. Light wear on the driver seat and some wear on the leather steering wheel. Original wool mats. The paint was very good with just a couple of chips. Now to get it shipped to New England.

Sorry, I have decided to keep the VDP for a while. I am, however, going to be selling my 1987 XJ6 series III soon. California car, Artic Blue Metallic paint with Buckskin (light brown) interior. All new burled walnut woodwork. 85k miles. Private Message me if interested.

I am also looking for the same car, preferably 2007-09 VDP with low miles and great condition. No black interiors.

Independentman seems to have found his already but I will continue the thread.

I literally just purchased a 2009 VDP Portfolio yesterday . Black on Black ( sorry Stan) Loaded up with rear entertainment etc. I like the red / white version also
A bit more miles than I wanted at 86k .but a pretty nice clean jag that was only an hour away. Not the best deal I ever negotiated but saved 1k on shipping something farther away and I was able to see and drive this one before purchase.

Love that chrome side vent and aggressive 08/09 grille. only technical flaw is a bad tire pressure sensor. NBD. Only cosmetic flaw worth mentioning is the typical headliner detaching in spots.
I'm going to do the removal myself then delegate the fabric work to a more skilled upholsterer.

Congrats Ronn! I was targeting a 2006 Portfolio because I wanted the black cherry paint, rear bucket seats & matte wood. Got what I wanted.
