That long, low shape with its distinctive oval headlamp clusters and prominent rear flying buttress design has become a highly desirable classic. Morevoer, we were lucky to get the XJS in the United States, as this 1984 Jaguar XJS proves. Up for sale with 203,000 miles on the odometer, this car is proof that when well looked after, an XJS can keep on going and going. So, if you want to own and cherish this beautiful V12-powered British grand tourer, get in touch, and we’ll help you take it home.
Exterior and Interior
British Racing Green might be the more famous of the shades of green worn by sporting British cars, but this 1984 Jaguar XJS eschews popular for pleasing a Polo Green coat. The current owner reports that the car received a repaint around 2009. Looking suitably distinguished, the car rolls on a set of five-spoke alloy wheels with Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires. This is a car that will turn heads wherever you choose to drive it. The plush interior of this car looks suitably British and definitively Eighties – you can almost detect the leather and wood scent just by looking at the photos of the car. Sporting leather seats and wood trim on the dash and doors, the cabin offers the best creature comforts of the time. Hence, you’ll find climate control, power windows, power mirrors, and power door locks. There’s also a trip computer, cruise control, and a comprehensive gauge pack. Meanwhile, the radio has been upgraded to a more modern Sony head unit with a CD player. Plus, there’s an equally luxurious set of rear seats, so two kids or smaller adults can travel there. Meanwhile, there’s a suitably spacious trunk, with spare tire and tire changing kit included.
Engine
This 1984 Jaguar XJS packs a beautifully tuneful 5.3L V12 under the hood, driving the rear wheels through a 3-speed automatic gearbox. The power output for North American cars was around 260hp. Front and rear independent suspension ensures great handling characteristics, while disc brakes on all four wheels assures steady-footed stopping prowess. The current owner tells us that a recent oil change has been performed.
Jaguar’s XJS spent more than two decades carrying the torch for the legendary E-Type, evolving into one of the most refined grand touring cars of its era. This 1991 Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible shows 52,140 miles and represents one of the final years of the facelifted pre-AJR6 V12 models. Finished in elegant Signal Red over a Black interior, this British luxury convertible combines timeless styling, smooth V12 power, and open-air touring capability. With its long hood, pillarless design, and turbine-smooth twelve-cylinder engine, the XJS remains one of the most distinctive grand tourers produced by Jaguar. Today, well-preserved V12 convertibles are increasingly appreciated by collectors for their combination of exclusivity, craftsmanship, and classic British character.
The Jaguar XJ-S was tasked with following one of the most iconic sports cars ever built, the E-Type, and it accomplished that challenge by carving out its own identity as a refined high-speed grand tourer. This 1983 Jaguar XJS Coupe represents one of the finest surviving examples of the model, showing just 14,878 miles from one owner. Finished in elegant Grosvenor Brown over a Biscuit leather interior, this V12-powered Jaguar remains remarkably preserved and is accompanied by its original documentation, a set of OEM factory wheels, and the original factory dual-beam headlights. Combining low ownership, exceptionally low mileage, and a highly original presentation, this XJS offers collectors an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire one of Jaguar’s most sophisticated grand touring coupes from the 1980s.
The Jaguar XJS was one of the longest-running grand touring cars ever produced by the British marque, blending elegant styling, effortless cruising manners, and luxurious appointments. This 1990 Jaguar XJS Convertible takes that formula a step further by replacing the original powerplant with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8 installed by Tempe Speed & Performance. The result is a classic British convertible with the reliability, serviceability, and performance of proven American V8 power. Showing approximately 97,465 miles, this XJS presents an appealing combination of vintage Jaguar charm and modernized mechanicals. Finished in attractive Diamond Blue Metallic over a Navy Blue interior and equipped with a matching Dark Blue convertible top, it offers an ideal open-air touring experience backed by upgraded V8 performance.
Introduced as a limited-production model for 2018, the Jaguar F-TYPE 400 Sport celebrated one of Jaguar’s most engaging sports cars by combining exclusive styling details with a power bump over the standard V6. Producing 400 horsepower from its supercharged engine and equipped with all-wheel drive, it strikes an ideal balance between grand touring comfort and exhilarating performance. This example has traveled just 26,123 miles and is finished in elegant Santorini Black Metallic with distinctive yellow 400 Sport accents, making it a standout specification for enthusiasts seeking a rare and well-equipped British sports coupe.
The X100-generation Jaguar XKR remains one of the great grand touring cars of the modern era, effortlessly combining timeless British styling with V8 muscle and long-distance comfort. Introduced as the high-performance variant of the XK, the XKR added a supercharged V8, sharper chassis tuning, and a more aggressive personality while retaining Jaguar’s unmistakable elegance. This 2002 Jaguar XKR 100 Convertible is an especially desirable example, as it is one of only 500 XKR 100 models produced worldwide and one of just 300 convertibles built to commemorate Jaguar’s centennial anniversary. Showing 101,062 miles, this rare special edition is finished in Anthracite over a Charcoal interior and features exclusive XKR 100 appointments, making it a collectible modern Jaguar that stands apart from a standard XKR.
The 2018 Jaguar XE 25t embodies Jaguar’s approach to the modern compact luxury sport sedan, combining elegant British styling with a driver-focused chassis and turbocharged performance. Showing 50,093 miles, this Narvik Black example offers all-wheel-drive confidence and a refined driving experience that’s equally suited for daily commuting or spirited backroad drives. With its premium appointments, responsive handling, and sophisticated design, the XE remains an appealing alternative to its German luxury sedan rivals.
