The Jaguar car is world famous for its stylish designs, thrilling
performance, luxurious and comfortable interiors, outstanding
handling and ride, quality engineering, and state of the art
technology. The founder of Jaguar Cars Ltd. was Sir William Lyons
and his goal was to create world class sports sedans with "grace,
space, and pace". Lyons once said, "The car is the closest thing we
will ever create to something that is alive".
For consignment, a 1995 Jaguar XJS convertible with a title
verified 14,254 actual miles. This is a two owner, garage kept
Jaguar, to many, is one of the most beautiful cars ever produced
for the street and here in Jade, has astounding curb appeal.
Exterior
Bathed in two stage Jade Green Pearl Metallic, the key to this
car's design is a sleek body style with a trim body, yet a muscular
stance which is often seen on some of the world's finest grand
touring automobiles. The car's straight panels are accentuated by
the desirable composite headlights, bordered on the bottom by an
integrated color keyed bumper under a black grille and chrome trim.
In back, the XJS's facelift includes smoked tail lights now in a
horizontal arrangement over a stunning jade bumper and two exhaust
tips. 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels carry 225/60R16 tires with a
late 2022 date code. On top is a black canvas convertible top with
a glass rear window that is in superb condition. Imperfections are
limited to some scuffs on the front spoiler and some clear coat
issues on the wheels. The paint and trim is in beautiful condition
and the color presents very well.
Interior
A swing of the doors reveals Oatmeal leather on the door panels
with a wood veneer strip near the upper sill of each door and it
looks fantastic, accompanied by a carpeted panel around the
speaker. More honey colored burlwood covers other parts of the dash
nicely and blends well with the beige leather, including that of
the front bucket seats which are in very good condition, and we
note a stain on the otherwise clean 2+2 rear seats. Back up front,
the black gauges are embedded in a wooden faceplate in a concise
array of instrumentation while the center is reserved for a clock
and AM/FM/Cassette radio. A modest shifter resides in the center
console, also framed in wood, flanked by ashtrays and accompanied
by black switchgear, all presenting nicely. Low pile gray carpet
covers the floor matched by the Jaguar mats and the deep trunk is
finished with gray cloth panels.
Drivetrain
Lift the back of the hood forward and you'll reveal a clean 4.0
liter inline six cylinder DOHC power plant that generates 229
horsepower, fuel injected and mated to a ZP4H24E 4-speed automatic
transmission that routes power to the rear axle with 3.54
gears.
Undercarriage
Low mileage and a pampered life has resulted in a clean underside.
Here we have power disc brakes on all four wheels and a dual
exhaust system that runs through original equipment and exiting
with some panache through chrome tips. Suspension consists of coil
springs up front and coil overs on the independent rear.
Drive-Ability
The supple leather invites you in and the wood trim keeps you
there. Even before we start the engine, it's clear that this is a
nice place to be. And with that, we turn the key and the six
cylinder fires up without hesitation. We roll the car onto the test
loop where it does everything well, from tracking to handling to
braking, and looks darn good doing it. Here's an XJS where every
function on board operates as it should and we take it inside where
it will be protected from nasty things like rain. While Classic
Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time
of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be
working at the time of your purchase.
We've represented dozens of XJS's over the years, and it would not
be hyperbole to say this is one of the nicest we've had the honor
to host in our Hallowed Halls. The color, condition, and overall
styling check all the boxes for a collector or enthusiast grade
example that's been meticulously maintained and its mileage kept
low. Ring us up if this one strikes our fancy.
