this car.
Seven Hills Motorcars is very proud to offer this beautiful 1991
Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible in fantastic condition with only 69,590
original miles. The car looks spectacular, runs great, and is an
excellent driver. The Jaguar is finished in the beautiful and
highly desirable color combination of red over tan leather interior
with a black soft top. The other original books and manuals are
still with the car. The low original mileage is also verified not
only by the condition of the car, but also by the clear Ohio title
showing the mileage as "Actual."
We have recently put about 30 miles on this XJS. During that time
the car was completely reliable, had no issues at all, and was a
true pleasure to drive.
There is a copy of the AutoCheck report in this ad. The report is
totally clean, shows no accident history, and verifies the low
mileage. Many in the classic car industry are saying that this body
style XJS is the next classic generation of Jaguar that is starting
going up in value. One could easily buy this car now and sell it
for more than the purchase price in years to come. Please peruse
all of the photos, video, and other information in this ad to get a
true sense of how clean and nice this XJS Convertible really
is.
As a side note, this Jaguar is not a dealer auction vehicle. We
hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our classics come from
owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give the
vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and
encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car
inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We
photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel
confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the XJS
Convertible, just give us a call.
Exterior
The red exterior is in excellent driver condition. As one can see
in the photos, the paint has a smooth finish. Both doors open and
shut nicely. The alloy wheels are in great shape with a nice
appearance and no major curb rash. The Michelin tires have plenty
of tread left and are sized 235/60R15. There are no major
imperfections that have been intentionally excluded from the
photos. As one would expect from a paintjob with many years on it
there are some very small blemishes around the car and some
cloudiness that are too faint so show up in the photos, but nothing
that is really noticeable from about five feet or ten away. This
Jaguar has no rust issues. As one can see in the many photos of the
underside, this XJS Convertible is very clean underneath. We have
also included specific photos of the rockers, lower front and rear
quarter panels, and other areas on the car most prone to rust to
show how nice it looks.
Interior
The tan leather interior of the XJS Convertible looks absolutely
fantastic. All of the gauge faces are crisp and clean and the
lenses are clear. The dash is in excellent condition with no
cracks, fading, or sun fading. This car has never been smoked in;
there is no aroma of cigarettes what so ever and no burn marks. The
seats look just as great in person as they do in the photos with no
holes or split seams. The seat is not overly worn in the typical
area on the bolster where the driver gets in and out, just a small
amount of wear there. The carpet also looks great with no stains,
rips, or holes. The black convertible soft-top is in good condition
overall with no frayed edges, but one small cut on the left side.
The top boot is included with the car. The original door panels are
in nice shape overall and both door pulls are solid. The car has a
more modern radio, but the original radio is also included. There
is some cracking in the woodgrain inside. The trunk is very clean
and nicely detailed with the original full size matching rim.
Jaguar interiors from this era are not know to wear well over time,
especially for a convertible, and the excellent condition of this
interior is a huge testament to the meticulous care and attention
this Jaguar has received throughout its life and another great
verification of the low original mileage.
Mechanical
This XJS Convertible appears to be in very nice mechanical
condition and it is ready to be enjoyed. As stated above we have
recently put about 30 miles on this car with absolutely no
problems. The twelve-cylinder engine starts right away every time
and idles smooth. It is an exceptional driver that feels great on
the road and at highway speeds. In the video one can observe the
car accelerating on the highway up to about 70mph, shifting through
all the gears, braking to a stoplight, and going through some
curves. Please note that it runs great, there are no strange noises
or vibrations, and the car performs quite well overall. The brakes
are responsive and do not pull to one side or the other. There is
no blue smoke when starting or driving the car. It runs cool and
does not overheat. Also, the engine bay is clean, nicely detailed,
and correct as one can see from the photos.
Please note in the video the dash warning lights; they light up
when the key is first turned on and then go off when the engine is
started just as they should. There are no "check engine" lights
that stay on. The horn works as do the fog lights, headlights,
brights, turn signals, interior lights, indicators, dash gauges
lights, wipers, rear window defroster, power windows, and power
locks. The power convertible top works properly going down. Going
up the top will get most of the way, but then needs a hand at the
end of the cycle. All of the gauges work. The blower for the heater
and a/c works, but only on high and the a/c does not blow cold. We
cannot get the heated seats to go on. The radio works, but we
cannot get the power antenna to go up. Not enough can be said as to
how much of a pleasure it is to drive this car, especially with the
top down on a beautiful day.
Overall Condition
Overall, this 1991 Jaguar XJS Convertible is in excellent condition
and is a true bargain at our asking price. This car is a premium
example; it is very clean with low miles and a clear AutoCheck
history. This Jaguar is a great value and will only appreciate over
time. Someone could easily enjoy this vehicle for several years and
sell it for more than the purchase price with minimal effort.
Other sellers are not taking the time to show the car is in such
great detail to give such an in-depth description, the massive
amount of photos, and the extensive and detailed video showing the
car driving and all of its functions. This information is very
valuable and important for pricing. Any perspective buyer, for any
of our vehicles or from other sellers, should ask for all this
information before he or she makes a purchase.
Thank you for looking and please do not hesitate to email or call
with any questions.
