Vehicle Description
Jaguar called their XJ-S model "Nimble & powerful, yet eminently
civilized." It couldn't be stated any better for these
sophisticated, sport touring examples. While design & style were
still in the careful hands of Jaguar before new ownership by Ford
forced a redesign, the 1989 and 1990 models have quickly grown
quite collectible. Their superb styling, robust V-12 power plant,
road hugging independent suspension, and luxurious interiors
continue to remain timeless today!
We are very proud to present this 1990 Jaguar XJ-S Coupe! Finished
in beautiful Signal Red exterior with Warm Charcoal soft leather
upholstery! Under the hood of the XJ-S purrs the mighty 5.3L V-12
engine producing 263 horsepower mated to an automatic transmission,
and a grand touring gear ratio of 2.88:1 with a limited-slip
differential. Special features included polished burl walnut wood
fascia on the dash fascia, center control panel, & door rails;
leather wrapped steering wheel, cruise control, 15" diamond spoke
light alloy wheels, Teves anti-lock brakes, side airbag, power
windows, heated seats with power lumber support, remote power
mirrors, AM/FM/Cassette stereo system, tilt steering wheel,
automatic climate control, full dash instrumentation, onboard trip
computer, and much more!
This example comes to us with only 29,684 original miles showing on
the odometer! With only a handful of careful owners from new, this
garage kept XJ-S remains in excellent condition throughout! It sold
new from a Delaware Jaguar dealership and was used primarily as
summer-only vehicle between Delaware & Maine until 2014. While
there, records provided show it was serviced by John Shephard of
Shep' s Imports of Union, Maine who was a Jaguar specialist. It
would sell in April 2014 to a new owner located in Storm Lake, Iowa
with just 24,630 miles on the odometer.
With consistent service records and routine annual maintenance
always performed, the car continues to perform wonderfully! A new
headliner was fitted in 2014, front shocks in 2016, and new battery
in March 2021. It would sell that year to its most recent owner
based here in St. Louis now showing only 26,200 miles on the
odometer. Soon after purchase, it would visit Schwarz Ltd for a
comprehensive recommended service that included resealing the cam
towers, replacing the thermostats & gaskets, camshaft gaskets,
intake manifold gaskets, oil sending unit, and replacement of the
rubber hoses to include coolant hoses, emission hose, water rail
gaskets, and water grommet seals. The spring 2022, new radials
tires were fitted at 27,378 miles. Just this year, new hood struts
were installed, fresh engine oil change, air conditioning service,
and transmission filter service and pan gasket replacement were
completed at 29,486 miles.
Included with this special Jaguar is the original owner's manual, 2
sets of keys, original cassette head cleaning kit, XJ-S audio
instruction tape, service records dating back to 2000, paint touch
up bottle, spare tire with original cover, jack & storage bag, and
lug nut wrench. It appears to have no post-factory paintwork with
consistent paint meter readings throughout, along with no accident
history on a clean CarFax report. All of the factory VIN body panel
stickers remain present. And having never been out in inclement
weather, the under-hood and undercarriage presentations continue to
look quite remarkable! Please feel free to call with any additional
questions or to schedule an appointment to view this one-owner XJ-S
Coupe in person. It should make for a sound, future blue chip
investment! We look forward to working with you!
