This 1996 Jaguar XJS 2+2 convertible is powered by a 4.0-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed automatic transmission and is finished in Spruce Green over Coffee leather. Equipment includes a limited-slip differential, a power-retractable beige soft top, 16″ alloy wheels, power-adjustable front sport seats, cruise control, a cassette stereo, and automatic climate control. The current owner purchased the car in 2023 and has since added approximately 10k of the 108k miles. This XJS convertible is now offered in New York on dealer consignment at no reserve with the owner’s manuals, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Florida title.

The car is finished in Spruce Green and features a power-retractable beige soft top as well as a Jaguar growler hood emblem, dual exhaust outlets, and a telescoping antenna. Damage is located on the rear bumper cover, failing paint is visible on the hood, and the front lip is cracked. Detailed photos of the exterior imperfections are presented in the gallery below.

The 16″ alloy wheels are mounted with a mix of Pirelli and Goodyear tires. Stopping power is provided by power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes. Curb rash is visible on multiple wheels.

The cabin features power-adjustable front sport seats and two rear bucket seats upholstered in Coffee leather. Interior amenities include cruise control, a cassette stereo, and automatic climate control.

The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer, as well as gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 108k miles, approximately 10k of which were added under current ownership.

The 4.0-liter inline-six was factory rated at 237 horsepower and 282 lb-ft of torque. The hood insulation pad is torn.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential.
