Over the years, Jaguar has developed a reputation for building very
luxurious and beautiful automobiles. The Jaguar XJS is no exception
to the rule. With its sleek and classy bodylines, powerful V12
powerplant and well optioned interior, it is easy to see why these
XJS's are popular among British car enthusiasts. This 1987 Jaguar
XJS is a rare, Hess and Eisenhardt coach built convertible, adding
to the collectability of this striking Jaguar. This XJS convertible
is a very nice example of these rare Jaguars and presents very well
in its factory Sovereign Gold Metallic exterior paint. The Jaguars
Gold metallic exterior shines very well and is in very good
condition with the exception of some rust bubbles starting in front
of the rear wheel wells. Complimenting the Jaguars Gold metallic
exterior is its factory chrome and stainless trim, polished Jaguar
hood ornament, factory "XJS", "Hess & Eisenhardt" and "V12" emblems
and a set of polished multi-spoke wheels wrapped in General Altimax
tires (dated 2025). This XJS features its Black canvas convertible
top that is in very good condition. This beautiful Jaguar retains
its factory Tan leather interior that is in very good condition
throughout. Powering this Jaguar XJS is its correct fuel-injected
5.3L V12 engine backed its Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed automatic
transmission. Both the engine and transmission perform just as they
should and have no issue delivering the effortless driving
experience you would expect from a Jaguar. This XJS is nicely

brakes, air conditioning, cruise control, heater/defrost, Kenwood
