1985 Jaguar XJS HSE - 75,000 miles.

Well cared for, have owned this car for the past 7 years. Its been garaged since I've owned it and I've only put about 1,500 miles a year on it as its primarily been taking me back and forth to the garage at the station. This is my daily driver mostly used locally around town. I have 2 kids now so need to get a more practical car for our second car. Its a great car, looks sharp, is fast and luxurious. Have put quite a lot of money into this car over that time. Here's a list of bigger ticket items done to the car below. If you are looking for a vintage classic on a beer budget, this is the car for you.

New transmission and torque converter with 10K on it since I replaced it

New Brakes rotors, pads calipers, new pirelli tires

New Shocks on all 4 wheels, front bushings replaced

Replaced Aux. Air valve, Throttle Potentiometer

New Bosch Starter, starter relay

Replaced Alternator

New coil

Recent tune-up with new cap/rotor, wires and plugs

Have spare gas tank and British downpipes without Cats I'll include in sale if picked up locally.

The Bad: one small rust spot below rear window. Been there since I bought the car off this site 7 years ago and has not gotten worse. Window does not leak. Also, leaks some power steering fluid. Needs new power steering hose but I have just not gotten around to fixing it. Hey, its a jag, they ALL leak. Other than than that, it drives nice and smooth, plenty of power.
