Vehicle Description
A classic Jaguar sedan is an everlasting symbol of affluence and
distinction, so we promise to keep this economy price a secret. But
this 1994 Jaguar XJ12's appeal is more than just its affordability.
And with only 63,029 original miles, this one purrs like a good cat
should.
Jaguar's reputation for smoothness, performance, and old-world
luxury is earned honestly and this handsome sedan shows all of
those virtues rather well. It's been properly maintained throughout
its life, a fact demonstrated by the beautiful tan paint that's
likely original. The long, low profile is a hallmark of Jaguar cars
that offer crisp lines like a finely tailored suit. Both bumpers
are in exceptional condition, the big chrome grille shines up well,
and details like the shiny metal surrounds around the windows and
the twin tailpipes out back are undeniable Jaguar trademarks that
are pure English luxury. There are even hints that this was the
ultimate XJ with the larger engine and most luxurious Vanden Plas
features, and this understated elegance proves its worth as you
look over the whole car.
The tan leather interior is where this Jag really shines. Natural
materials abound: leather, wool, wood, all of which were finished
to standards that only the craftsmen in Coventry, England seem to
have mastered. It's beautifully preserved and the contrasting
piping on the seats gives it a tailored look. But more than just
old-world luxury, this Jag has all the modern conveniences you
could want, too. A long list of desirable features include a power
sunroof, power seats, power steering, power locks, cruise control,
original AM/FM/cassette stereo w/CD changer, and a digital
readout/odometer center that goes along with the large round analog
speedo and tach. And with a luxury car that's been preserved this
well, of course the air-conditioning is still blowing ice-cold. You
even get the modern safety of dual front air bags and anti-lock
brakes. While there are no markings for the Vanden Plas trim on
this car, it was an automatic upgrade when getting the flagship
XJ12. That means the rear seats are nearly as comfortable as the
front ones thanks to a longer wheelbase, individual rear buckets
for two, and fold-down tray tables.
1994 was a great year because it was when Jaguar began importing
the XJ sedan with the 6.0-liter V12. This one still carries its
original fuel-injected motor, and it's represented nicely in the
engine bay with plenty of originality and signs of proper
maintenance. The V12 was a true flagship motor that offered 28%
more power over the straight-six. This is backed by a
smooth-shifting four-speed automatic overdrive transmission that
works with the iconic J-gate shifter to let you shift on your own
when you want this car to really stretch its performance legs.
You'll love this Jaguar because these have always been one of the
best handling luxury sedans coming straight from the factory. A
fully independent suspension front and rear, power steering, and
four-wheel disc brakes all makes for the perfect package to attack
the backroads on a weekend getaway.
Jaguar cars have always been for the elite. So finding a well
maintained example that has averaged less than 2,900 miles per year
is a true rare gem. This XJ12 is waiting for the right person to
continue its preserved heritage. Call today!!!
