Jaguar XJS V12 5.3

Jaguar's XJS replaced the E-Type in 1975 and stayed in production for 21 years. This 1989 convertible has the 5.3-litre V12 with a three-speed automatic gearbox, and is finished in blue with a matching soft top, red-and-silver pinstripe and grey leather with walnut trim.

It comes from a private collection in Scotland, where it was reportedly kept in dry storage. Changes from standard are modest: US-specification quad headlights, a modern retro-style stereo and a TWR Jaguar Sport steering wheel. It shows 69,425 miles, and the service record on the page runs from 1,031 miles in 1989 to 68,054 miles in September 2025.

Recommissioning in 2025 included a top-end engine refresh, a new inlet manifold, gaskets, spark plugs and fuel system parts. All 12 injectors were cleaned, the idle control valve was rebuilt, the rear brakes were refurbished and a new battery was fitted. The soft top is described as as-new. It has an MOT valid to 10 September 2026 and the handbook, service book, V5C and invoices.
