For Sale: 1985 Jaguar XJS in Tempe, Arizona

Vehicle Description

Here is an absolutely drop dead gorgeous 1985 Jaguar XJS in great condition inside and out. This is a pre-facelift example of the XJS before it was replaced in 1996 by the XK8. It is favored by Jaguar collectors as one of the most beautiful vehicles Jaguar ever assembled. This is a totally solid always garage stored example that is a blast to drive. It is a very well kept, unmolested Jaguar that has been extremely well maintained over the years. It also has very low miles for its age at 19,000, averaging just over 500 miles per year driving! This unit just in from a private collection out of New Mexico. One of the lowest mile original Jag XJS coupes in the country! This is essentially a one main owner car. Mr Wolf bought this car in 1988 with 1400mi and was the only driver who regularly serviced this car til he parted with it in 2013 with 18k miles. It has been through a small handful of collectors since then with only about a thousand miles on the car over the last 7 years. Nothing beats the feeling of a V12 Jaguar, so don't miss your chance to put this beauty in your garage for pennies on the dollar of what has been spent on this car over the years....bid now!

The following is a list of options as this Jaguar is currently equipped:

-5.3L 291hp V12 Engine
-4 Speed Automatic Transmission
-Lightweight Alloy Wheels
-Power Windows
-Power Door Locks
-Power Antenna
-Power Heated Seats
-Automatic Climate Control
-Factory Jaguar Am/Fm Cassette
-Fog Lamps

The body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on the car is still its original coat of Damson Red and is in awesome condition and looks as good as the day in rolled of the lot. The paint is beautiful and has never had any sheet metal work and is certified to have never been in an accident. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as an western car should be. All chrome trim, glass (all original), and rubber seals are in great shape. The car is riding on the on rare 95-96 XJ-R aluminum wheels. All four are like new with no damage or curb rash.

The interior is in great shape all around. The dash and door panels are in very nice condition and all wood grain is very nice and gives the car a very luxurious feel. The supple biscuit tan leather seats are all in very good condition and look as nice as new with no rips or ware lines, which shows the quality of materials used in this car. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged. All dials and controls function as they should, power windows and antenna also are fully functional. The sound system is also very nice with the high dollar Jaguar sound system currently installed. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should.

Mechanically, this XJS runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. It drives as good now as the day it rolled of the lot. The V12 engine is very quick and responsive. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at highway speeds above 90mph. The car also just easily passed the tough Arizona Emissions tests with flying colors. This beauty has only 19500 original miles and was just driven over 5 hours from NM to AZ with no issues.

The car will include 4 keys, all tools, spare tire, as well as all original manuals and receipts.

All in all, this is one of the cleanest and nicest Jag's that I have had the privilege of being associated with. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owner. This XJS is a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in this car. This is your chance to get an like new vintage Jaguar for a fraction of the original cost. The car has a clean Arizona Title. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337.
