at 'Moss Jaguar' of Santa Barbara, California and serviced there
initially with service in recent years primarily at the renown
Jaguar independent specialists 'Bob Cutler' of Pasadena, CA.
Obviously always garaged with absolutely no rust and no accidents
and a clean CARFAX report, owned by only obviously very careful and
mature owner/drivers since new - never abused, babied all the
way!The original factory striking and rarely ordered 'Solent Blue
Metallic' color paint is in absolutely excellent and virtually
flawless condition as is the original 'Saville Gray' color leather
seats and interior. There are virtually no signs of any wear with
the door panels, headliner and the carpets all in outstanding
condition throughout. The car has been always primarily only dealer
and Jaguar specialists serviced since new and the car will be sold
with all its original owners manuals, dealer stamped 'Passport to
Service' booklet and is a car which had an original sales price of
over $48K (over $100K adjusted for inflation in 2020
dollars!)Powered by one of the finest, race proven engines built by
Jaguar, the smooth 5,344 c.c. V12 engine was a worthy successor to
the XK series of Jaguar sports cars dating from the late 1940's and
this particular engine is extremely strong and smooth running with
excellent oil pressure and which does not burn or leak oil. The
temperature always remains cool and the car drives exactly like a
V12 Jaguar with such low miles should!This must be one of the
finest examples available anywhere of this classic and increasingly
desirable and collectible rare V12 Jaguar, a truly luxurious smooth
V12 ride and one of the last beautiful hand built cars from
Jaguar's legendary Browns Lane, Coventry, England plant and a car
that cost almost $49K new in 1989 (over $100K in todays money!) -
this is one of the last classically beautiful design built by
Jaguar in their long and famous history of classic lines - with
these particular 2 door sports coupe models becoming harder to find
in such all original condition with low miles and with this car
having had only obviously very careful and fastidious ownership
since new, an always garaged car primarily serviced at certified
Jaguar mechanics or dealerships, this is one sure-fire classic car
investment for the Jaguar enthusiast or simply any classic car
lover!You will certainly look long and hard to find a finer example
of this immaculate and very rare and desirable V12 Jaguar XJS
sports coupe with no history of any accidents, rust or 'stories'
and all original owners dealer handbooks and tools and boasting
only 41K original miles in this most striking of color combinations
available anywhere else!
