About this car

The XJ12C is the two-door, pillarless coupe version of Jaguar's Series 2 XJ, powered by the 5.3-litre V12. It was built in small numbers and had a troubled production life, which makes a survivor like this one uncommon today.

This 1977 example shows 24,000 miles and is described as totally original and on its first paint. It is finished in Yellow Gold with a Floris Blue interior. It has had four owners and comes with a comprehensive history file.

It was featured in Jaguar World Magazine in January 2023. The dealer calls it a time-warp car.
