One of Jaguar’s finest luxury cars, the XJS is well-known for its interesting styling and growling V12 engine. Produced for 21 years, the model ran between 1975 and 1996. The XJS saw many updates along the way, but have you heard of the Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible? Hess & Eisenhardt was an American outfit who converted regular Jaguar XJS examples into custom convertibles, before Jaguar themselves started officially offering a convertible. And that’s what we’ve got for sale today, a 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible with the signature custom Hess & Eisenhardt body modifications that make it a gorgeous drop-top for weekend cruises. The car comes to you with a mere 72,000 miles, and infinite charisma.
This 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible presents itself in a beautiful shade of blue. But that’s not the sole element of its allure. Its double headlamps, beautifully flowing lines, alloy wheels and power-operated soft top all add to the car’s overall aura. There’s also a color-coordinated boot cover, a heated glass rear window, and a color-keyed high-mounted rear stop lamp. The blue interior of this 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible is a two-seat affair, with two plush leather seats awaiting an eager driver and enthusiastic passenger. The seats are power-adjustable and heated too. There are also electrically-operated windows, including the rear quarter windows, power-adjustable mirrors, and climate control. Then, we observe a trip computer and a Jaguar radio cassette player sitting in the center console. Meanwhile, behind the two seats lies a carpeted rear luggage area, with a chrome plated luggage retention rail, and even a leather-trimmed boot storage bag in the trunk. The rear compartment also contains interior lamps for more convenience. You can see the extent to which Hess & Eisenhardt have gone to create something truly amazing.
What Hess & Eisenhardt have left alone with this 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible is the engine. That’s because Jaguar already did a fine job, placing a lovely 5.3L V12 beneath the hood, and driving the rear wheels via a smooth automatic gearbox. With around 260 horses waiting for your command, you can enjoy a surprisingly sprightly ride.

With Jaguar Cars recently rebranding to mixed reactions from auto enthusiasts, it’s a great time to remind ourselves of their greatest hits from the past. One of these is the XJS grand tourer. Produced between 1975 and 1996, the XJS is widely regarded as one of the most iconic Jags ever made. Its flying buttresses and grunty V12 engine all make for a superb driving experience, and one heck of a weekend cruiser. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 1992 Jaguar XJS V12. The car has covered 94,231 miles so far, and has reportedly undergone some recent maintenance.
Here's a car that was almost killed off after just five years on the market but soon recovered to become one of the best-known British cars of the eighties. The 1991 Jaguar XJS V12, the successor to the legendary Jaguar E-Type, made its legacy as a luxury gran tourer. Assembled in Coventry, England, this facelift model was part of the final iteration after Ford’s acquisition of Jaguar. They introduced numerous modifications, such as removing the hyphen from the XJ-S to simplify it. The new designer, Geoff Lawson, made the rear windows appear enlarged by removing the frames despite having identical glass apertures. The potent V12 engine was also upgraded with a new injection and fuel system, new spark plugs, and a tidier engine bay. This particular 2+2 seating convertible model has received new rotors, new front brakes, and new front calipers, as reported by the current owner. Here is your chance to own a true classic British Hero for sale in McDonough, Georgia.
Experiencing a classic motor that is original is a tough ask, as the years go by and multiple owners take over, it's normal for cars to lose their former glory along the way.

The classic British motor is reported to have just 43,000 original miles since new and is geared for cruising in luxury and style. What's better? This classic also comes with its owners manual and documentation to prove its originality.

The successor of Jaguar’s iconic XJS grand tourer, the XK was introduced in 1996. It ran until 2014, across two generations, before the F-Type took over. The XK also spawned a high-performance, supercharged variant called the XKR. With Jaguar’s recent rebranding and new direction causing quite a bit of controversy, why not celebrate what the brand used to be, rather than taking up arms at what it might be? This 2005 Jaguar XKR Roadster is a great way to celebrate, with its drop-top and supercharged V8 waiting for you to enjoy. The car packs just 118,064 miles, and has been recently serviced too.

Porsche’s first SUV, the Cayenne was introduced in 2002. The Cayenne quickly gained a reputation as a luxury SUV that offered Porsche’s signature driving experience, making it the most family-friendly car that the Stuttgart automaker offered at the time.
