The Jaguar XJS is a refined luxury grand tourer from British car maker Jaguar. Produced between 1975 and 1996, the XJS has become something of a curio. Thanks to its eye-catching styling, flying buttresses, and growling V12 engine on some variants, it's definitely a classic car to have. While an official convertible was offered, American firm Hess & Eisenhardt was able to create a cleaner profile by specially converting XJS Coupes into Convertibles. This 1988 Jaguar XJS V12 Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible is one such example, and it's a pretty limited-edition car. Records are sparse, but it's widely believed that just 2,100 cars were converted in this manner. This example comes to you with 80,500 miles on its odometer and is ready for more, in all its power-operated soft-top glory.
Suitably painted in Champagne color, this 1988 Jaguar XJS V12 Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible sports a contrasting black power-operated convertible top. Hess & Eisenhardt's genius means that the top completely folds down when lowered, rather than the official Jaguar unit which tends to leave an unsightly hump. To accomplish this Hess & Eisenhardt did quite a fair bit of engineering under the skin. They removed the single fuel tank and implemented a new dual-tank set-up. Then, they added steel reinforcements around the car to reduce the scuttle shake that's common on convertibles. They even installed weights behind the headlamps to dampen harmonic resonances. All this shows that Hess & Eisenhardt aren't just some backyard fabricator lot but a proper automotive engineering company. Hence, this 1988 Jaguar XJS V12 Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible is as good as a factory XJS convertible, albeit with a much cleaner profile when the top is down. It rolls on alloy wheels and wears new tires. Inside, you'll find a two-seat tan interior with a cargo shelf behind the seats. This car has climate control, power-adjustable seats, power windows, power mirrors, and cruise control. It also packs a Jaguar-branded premium audio system. You've also got a spacious trunk, highlighting the XJS' role as a grand tourer.
This 1988 Jaguar XJS V12 Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible packs the lovely 5.3L V12 engine that connoisseurs of the marque covet. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a 3-speed automatic transmission that's reportedly been rebuilt less than 500 miles ago. The car comes with power-assisted disc brakes on all four wheels, which reportedly sport new parts, and a new power steering unit. It also has independent suspension for the most comfortable ride. Finally, we're told that the engine has received an oil change.

A mainstay of British Grand Tourers between 1975 and 1996, the Jaguar XJS is an interestingly-styled vehicle that was offered with frugal straight six or all-out twelve-cylinder powerplant choices. It became a symbol of the Seventies and Eighties, and has prominently featured on the silver screen too. Now, an XJS represents a sound and sensible way to own a classic Jaguar, especially a later-model drop-top example like this 1994 Jaguar XJS Convertible from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The car has got 78,110 miles on the clock and since it’s a later-model variant, features quite a few creature comforts and refinements absent from the very early models.
Some cars carry with them a certain dignity, a heritage, and character that sets them apart from the run-of-the-mill daily transportation. Take, for example, the XJS. During its long history, Jaguar has tampered as little as possible with a magnificent V12 engine or its singular styling. The Jaguar XJS V12 is the cheapest V12 sports car you can buy, even though it's a 12-cylinder car from a desirable luxury brand. This quintessential symbol of British grand touring luxury can now be yours with this stunning example of the 1991 Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible. Located in McDonough, Georgia, this beauty comes to you with 2+2 seating, independent suspension, and a serene ride. And they don't come much bigger or better than this big Brit bruiser.
One of the most breathtakingly beautiful cars built by Jaguar Cars Limited of Great Britain, the XJS came about in 1975. With a 21-year production run, the XJS, previously called the XJ-S in earlier years, remains one of Jaguar’s longest running models to this day. Malcolm Sawyer oversaw the styling but passed away before the car was released; Geoff Lawson was responsible for the facelift in 1991, which is what this 1994 Jaguar XJS Gold Edition looks like. Coming to you with the 6.0-liter V12 engine option, this one owner car is reportedly all-stock and a Gold Edition too. It’s got a mere 35,000 miles on the clock and features a fetching ivory interior with green piping as well.
The last car to be personally developed by Jaguar Cars founder Sir William Lyons, the XJ first appeared in 1968. Then, it continued with the same basic shape, but received thorough modernization throughout the years. Today, the word most apt for a classic XJ like this 1994 Jaguar XJ6, is timeless. Timeless elegance and class is what you’ll get with this 150,926-mile luxury car from Alburquerque, New Mexico that’s now up for grabs. Don’t worry about the mileage, with the right maintenance, these cars can go on and on…and on. Plus, a car like this is ideal for relaxing, lowering your blood pressure and easing your stress. It’s one of those things that old British luxury cars are great at accomplishing.
Are you yearning for a modern British grand tourer from a renowned automaker with a V8 under the hood? If so, look no further than this X150-series 2014 Jaguar XK from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This car comes with an uber-low mileage of just 7,750 miles on the odometer, and is a one-owner vehicle. The X150 era of the XK was produced between 2006 and 2015, with over 27,000 examples made during that time. Now, these cars are gracefully aging and starting to look even better, especially when you consider today’s cookie-cutter EVs and soulless PHEVs. This car also comes with some nice 20-inch Orona 8-spoke polished wheels and is a drop-top!
The Jaguar XK of the Nineties and Two Thousands is an often overlooked grand tourer. Available with punchy V8 power, the first or XK100 generation was made between 1996 and 2006. It brought cool British styling and sports car DNA to a modernized platform and sleek looks that aged gracefully. Today, you can avail yourself of all that with this 2006 Jaguar XKR from Queen Creek, Arizona. It’s got two keys, up-to-date servicing and a fetching set of BBS Montreal wheels. But most importantly, as the XKR variant, it packs a 400-horsepower supercharged V8 under the hood. Now who’d pass that up?
Now here’s a luxurious and swift four-door luxury sedan that is going to be a classic in less than ten years time. Yes, this 2009 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed is the perfect car for someone seeking modern power and performance sans the overwhelming digital and connected technology interiors of today’s cars. It’s a fine British luxury machine that can hit 200mph if you wish, although we’d strongly recommend doing so on a race track or drag strip rather than the public road. If you’d like to take on this super sedan, it’s up for grabs in Las Cruses, New Mexico, having done just 60,200 miles.
Porsche’s third-generation Cayenne midsize luxury sports crossover took an interesting direction in terms of styling. It forked into two derivatives, namely the regular Cayenne, as well as a sportier Cayenne Coupe variant. That’s what we have here, with this 2024 Porsche Cayenne S Coupe from Jacksonville, Oregon. With 30,000 miles on the clock, an alluring red and black leather interior and even a full-size moonroof, this V8-powered beast is ready for action. It’s even got a car cover to protect its black paint from damage when parked. If you’d like to avail yourself to a petrolhead’s ideal family car with all-wheel drive traction and the signature Porsche driving experience, call us right now. Service documents are also included with the sale of this SUV.
Land Rover, that iconic British automaker who gave us the OG Defender way back in 1948, has only risen from strength to strength. Curiously, they are one of a handful of automakers who’ve only offered SUVs in their portfolio. You won’t find a sports car, grand tourer, sedan, station wagon or pickup truck (unless you count the original Defender which was offered in open-bed form). Their Range Rover sub-brand is well-regarded for being a cut above its parent, in terms of luxury as well as sportiness. That’s where this 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE hails from. With under 63,000 miles on the odometer, this two-row midsize luxury SUV is perfect for a family that needs space, luxury, off-road ability and cargo capacity. It’s up for grabs in Largo with two keys included in the sale.
