Seller's description:

Lovely Jaguar XJS convertible, 1 of 4 jags in the garage at the moment. Very clean, garage kept example, with no rust whatsoever, in a stunning color combination. Just serviced. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere. Newish tires as well. It is a 1995 car and there are one or 2 paint chips, but the wear is better than would be expected, as it should be for such a low mileage car. Everything operates as expected. I noticed on a short trip to run an errand today, that the AC is not blowing as cold as it should. its coldish. I'll get it charged this week if I have a moment. the drivers seat swap is showing some signs of aging, but it is still very presentable.

Car has a buy it now price of $13,900 for 6 days, seller macbeta, car now back in Mount Dora, Florida, 57k miles.

Seller's description:

Lovely Low Mileage Jaguar XJS for sale out of collection. Like the Kennedys, this pretty gal has been kept in the family. I bought it from my cousin. "Vinnie", who purchased it from his brother, who reportedly purchased it from the original owner. The car is fully serviced, and I would not hesitate to drive it across country. AC has just been serviced and she wears relatively new Pirelli tires on OE rims. Pay the buy it now price of $13,900, and upon verified wire transfer, I'd be happy to delivery to any major airport between Orlando and Kansas City, for the price of the gas. It's just a lovely, rust free Jag, that always garners looks wherever you take her. Please remember this is a 27 year old car, sporting a beautiful patina, consistent with her age. Selling to downsize my collection as I downsize homes.

Described as immaculate inside and out

The History and Paperwork

The car hails from the Ford era of Jaguar being made in late 1994

The car was first sold and registered in early 1995 in Texas

The car passed through the hands of four US owners between then and 2022

The second and third owner was same family, husband sold car to his wife

In 2022 the current owner imported it from California

Since then, the current owner has enjoyed using it

It has just returned from an 800-mile round trip to France

The car was reported to have never missed a beat on the trip

There is plenty of verifying paperwork included with the XJ-S

This includes plenty of paperwork from its time in the USA

This consists of invoices for maintenance mainly

There is also some paperwork relating to registration and deed of title

Some documentation relating to its import in 2022 is also on hand

UK v5 log book is in hand with an age related number given 

A full Carfax report is present verifying owner and mileage history

The original book pack and folder are present and correct

Two original Jaguar keys are also on-hand

fully stamped jaguar passport to service book

The Interior

The luxurious cabin of the XJ-S is exquisitely trimmed in Connolly leather and Walnut

The pristine leather is finished in a Cashmere hue

The heavily bolstered front seats are stitched into horizontal box pleats

The seats are fully electrically adjustable with memory function

The rear seats are small but beautifully trimmed 

Best used for additional luggage space rather than passengers

The dashboard is a blend of leather and walnut veneer

The white on black instruments are housed in a hooded binnacle

These sit behind the original, black, four-spoke Jaguar steering wheel

The centre console houses the heating controls and original radio cassette head unit

The door cards are trimmed in leather and walnut with chromed accents

Complementary coloured carpets are edge bound for luxury and longevity

Every single control in the cabin works perfectly including the cruise control, power hood, and air conditioning runs ice cold

The good-sized boot is fully finished in hard wearing grey carpet

The original Jaguar 10-CD changer is fitted here

An onboard trickle charger is also noted in here

Original and unused tools and jack are present together with the unused full sized spare wheel

The Exterior

The car presents in gleaming Flamenco Red with a Cashmere coloured hood

The condition of the original paintwork appears to be excellent and is factory paint

It exudes a deep and lustrous shine and not imperfections are noted or reported

The minimal brightwork shines deeply and provides attractive contrast

A chromed Jaguar leaper is fitted to the bonnet

The car sits purposefully on its original alloy wheels

These are 16-inch items and present in a fine un-kerbed condition

These are shod with a matching set of Pirelli P4 tyres in 225/60 configuration

All light lenses and cabin glass appear original and undamaged

The Cashmere coloured hood is pristine with no imperfections noted

This features a glass, heated rear window 

The Mechanics

This example is fitted with the inline-six cylinder 4.0L AJ6 engine

This was originally rated at around 245bhp with 289ib-ft or torque

Power is fed to the rear wheels via a four speed ZF4HP24E automatic gearbox

This configuration makes for a powerful but refined convertible GT car

The documentation attests to the car having been diligently maintained

Much has clearly been spent on keeping the car in top order

In its current ownership the car has proved both reliable and enjoyable

The engine bay appears to be very clean and original

All the expected data plates appear to present

The underside of the car looks great for its age

The mechanical condition has clearly benefitted from a life on salt free roads
