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

should!This must be one of the finest examples available anywhere

beautiful hand built cars from Jaguar's legendary Browns Lane,
Coventry, England plant and a car that cost almost $64K new in 1990
(over $142K in todays money!) before the added expense of the
dealer installed TWR Sports package!You will certainly look long
and hard to find a finer or more striking example of this
immaculate and very rare and desirable TWR Sports Edition V12
Jaguar XJS Convertible with no history of any accidents in this
classic color combination available anywhere else!
