Background Story of this 1989 Jaguar XJS

Overview of 1989 Jaguar XJS For Sale by Owner

The Jaguar XJS is a two-door grand tourer made between 1975 and 1996. Known for its flamboyant styling and powerful V12 engine under the hood in some variants, the XJS is a fantastic British classic car to own and cherish. It’s representative of the period when British luxury meant plenty of wood, fine materials, and a feeling of driving around in your living room. In the case of this 1989 Jaguar XJS Convertible, you can enjoy all that, accompanied by twelve glorious cylinders firing at their best, and a drop-top to engage on fine days. Plus, this Reading, Massachusetts-based car bears just under 38,000 miles on the clock, making it an absolute unicorn, waiting to be picked up by a discerning collector. Could that be you?

Exterior and Interior

This 1989 Jaguar XJS Convertible comes in Navy Blue, with a black convertible top that can be deployed for weather protection when needed. The car’s timeless styling has aged with panache, and even today, it turns heads when driving around amidst the sea of characterless SUVs that all seem to look the same. Wire-effect wheels, fog lamps and dual exhausts all add to the car’s timeless character. The interior of this 1989 Jaguar XJS Convertible continues the Navy Blue theme, but adds a healthy dose of wood trim to make for a very homely cabin. You’ve got two seats and a spacious cargo area behind, augmented by a fairly decent trunk for a grand tourer. Amenities include powered and heated seats, climate control, cruise control and a Jaguar-branded radio with cassette tape player. Most importantly, everything feels solid and mechanical. There are no touchscreens or touchpads here; move a switch or press a button and you know that you’ve done something substantial. That’s how cars should feel, and it’s how this beautiful British grand tourer feels.

Engine

Under the long hood of this 1989 Jaguar XJS Convertible lies a masterful 5.3-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine, able to conjure up 263hp and send it to the rear wheels. A GM TH400 3-speed automatic transmission assures you of a smooth drive. You’ve also got four wheel disc brakes with front vented discs.

1993 Jaguar XJS - Passenger side

1993 Jaguar XJS Convertible 5-Speed

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$34,999
SOLD

The Jaguar XJS spent decades evolving from a controversial successor to the E-Type into one of Britain’s most refined grand touring cars, and by 1993, it had matured into an exceptionally polished luxury convertible. This 1993 Jaguar XJS Convertible is especially intriguing thanks to its rare enthusiast-focused specification, pairing Jaguar’s smooth 4.0-liter AJ6 inline-six with the highly desirable Getrag 5-speed manual transmission—a combination seldom seen in the U.S. market. Showing just 30,083 miles, this example represents a compelling opportunity to own a low-mileage British grand tourer that blends elegant styling, open-air motoring, and analog driver engagement. Finished in timeless white over a tan leather interior with a matching tan convertible top, this XJS captures the classic luxury aesthetic that defined premium British motoring in the early 1990s.

1994 Jaguar XJS Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$12,999
SOLD

If you’re searching for a classic Jaaaag, this 1994 Jaguar XJS Convertible from Warrenton, Virginia is a fine choice for many reasons. First off, the XJS is one of Jaguar’s finest and best Greatest Hits from their back catalogue. It’s a grand tourer with timeless style, and the choice of a snarling V12 or frugal but still nippy straight six under the hood. Plus, since this 70,000-mile Flamenco Red example is a later-model car, it’s got a bit more niceties on the inside, as well as being a proper factory convertible. Did you know that earlier in the XJS’s life, convertibles were actually made from coupes by an aftermarket outfit, under contract from Jaguar? However, after 1988, Jaguar started making them in-house. That, and many more reasons, including the very near classic status, are all compelling cases to buy this car.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$69,999

The Jaguar XKR-S represented the wild side of Jaguar grand touring in the early 2010s, taking the already potent XKR and transforming it into something far more aggressive, focused, and memorable. As Jaguar’s most powerful production model at the time of launch, the XKR-S combined traditional British luxury with supercar-level performance, wrapped in one of the brand’s most dramatic modern designs. This 2013 Jaguar XKR-S Convertible shows approximately 31,722 miles and presents in a particularly eye-catching specification, pairing Polaris White paint with a rich Warm Charcoal and London Tan interior, topped by a striking Bordeaux soft top. With its factory carbon fiber aerodynamic elements, premium audio, and supercharged V8 soundtrack, this is an increasingly desirable modern Jaguar performance flagship.

Graceful, refined, and unmistakably British, the 1965 Jaguar S-Type 3.8-Litre Saloon represents one of Jaguar’s most elegant sport sedans of the 1960s.

Showing approximately 42,924 miles, this right-hand-drive example is beautifully finished in Sherwood Green and Willow Green over a green leather interior, presenting with the kind of timeless charm that has made vintage Jaguars enduring collector favorites. From its polished wood veneers and chrome wire wheels to its smooth inline-six engine, this S-Type delivers the unmistakable character of a handcrafted Coventry-built luxury saloon from Jaguar’s golden era.

1970 Buick Skylark - Passenger side

1970 Buick Skylark 350 Sport Coupe

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$45,000

1970 marked an important year for Buick’s midsize muscle car lineup, as the Skylark 350 Sport Coupe blended the brand’s signature comfort with increasingly aggressive performance styling. While Buick’s GS models often stole the spotlight, well-optioned Skylarks like this example have become increasingly appreciated for offering the same muscular A-body proportions and V8-powered driving experience at a more approachable level. Showing approximately 19,245 miles on the odometer, this Skylark benefits from a substantial refurbishment and modernization effort that included drivetrain work, suspension upgrades, steering enhancements, interior refresh, and cosmetic refinishing. Finished in Bamboo Cream over a Saddle vinyl interior, this Buick stands out with tasteful GS Stage 1-inspired styling cues, upgraded handling components, and classic American muscle car presence.

1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999

The first-generation Plymouth Barracuda helped establish Chrysler’s foothold in the emerging pony car market during the 1960s, blending compact dimensions with unmistakable Mopar styling and V8 performance. This 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible represents the final year of the first-generation A-body Barracuda and shows approximately 2,171 miles on the odometer. Finished in Ermine White over a black vinyl interior, this convertible has been upgraded with a potent 340ci Mopar V8 while retaining much of its classic period-correct charm. Featuring performance-oriented upgrades such as “J” cylinder heads, a Sure-Grip rear differential, Moser axles, and an aftermarket shift kit, this Barracuda offers a more spirited driving experience than its factory configuration while still capturing the laid-back cruising personality of a classic American convertible. With its clean styling, white soft top, and tasteful upgrades, this Mopar stands out as a unique and highly usable vintage cruiser.

1970 Volkswagen Beetle - Passenger side

1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod LT1

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$55,000

There are custom builds, and then there are machines like this. This 1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod shows just 710 miles and represents a complete reimagination of one of the most recognizable economy cars ever built. Far removed from its humble air-cooled origins, this Beetle has been transformed into a full custom hot rod powered by a Chevrolet LT1 V8, riding on a tubular chassis, and engineered with hardware more commonly found in purpose-built performance cars. From its chopped roofline and wide rear stance to its remote-controlled suicide doors and bespoke interior, this is a build created to command attention wherever it goes. The title carries a rebuilt designation noted in title history, which should be fully disclosed, but this vehicle’s appeal lies in its craftsmanship, engineering ambition, and sheer uniqueness rather than originality.
