Gear head, car guy, car gal, whatever you want to call it, you like
cars and enjoy driving and owning automobiles that offer something
special. Whether it's beautiful styling, powerful engines, great
handling or other characteristics that make certain cars special,
you find that appealing. In your quest to experience things that
set certain cars apart from others, something that should be on
your list is to own a V12 powered automobile. This Jaguar XJS is
such an entry into the V12 world and at a very affordable price.
When you turn the key, it's almost as if something is wrong. You
don't hear or feel the stroke of the pistons as they compress fuel
and air. It's a turbine like sound rather similar to a jet engine
spinning up. The short stroke Jaguar V12 gives a new meaning to the
word smooth. That turbine like feel continues all the way up to the
6500 rpm red line. In fact, the red line is limited more by the
engine ancillaries than the engine itself. V12 power truly puts the
grand in grand touring and a Grand Tourer is what best describes
the XJS. This 1986 model has the HE (high efficiency) version of
the V12 that between fuel injection and a redesigned combustion
chamber, delivers more power and better fuel mileage than the
original carburetor car. Our example here is in nice overall
condition. It starts, runs, and stops as it should. The interior is
clean and without major faults and showing only the patina of
careful use over time. The paint has some flaws here and there but
is still shiny and smooth and still presents quite well. "It's
