Overview of 1989 Jaguar XJS Convertible V12 For Sale by Owner

Classic Jaguars are known as the gentleman's way of getting about; it's the four-wheeled version of a suit and tie that acts dignified and leaves an impression. A deep dive into the world of classic Jaguars and you sure are spoiled for choice, you have the E-Type that stole Enzo Ferrari's heart, you also have the XJ220 that gave the world what true British performance was like back in the 90s. While all these examples are a treat to look at and be behind the wheel of, they lack one thing: the feel of being a grand tourer. Let's cut out the deep search into your next classic and give you one of Britain's finest, it's this lovely 1989 Jaguar XJS with just 82,623 reported miles run in.

Exterior and Interior

The XJS was and is still a looker, it was a favorite in the good old Top Gear and used as a high speed train and countless other challenges, it was also regarded as the nicest classic Jaguar by James May himself. This 1989 Jaguar XJS with its glacier white exterior is a true treat to look at daily, the exterior is in excellent condition, with all its exterior accompaniments polished and ready for some time in the sun. You would also note that this is the better XJS, thanks to a blue convertible top in place. For wheels, you have a period-correct piece that takes shape with shiny chrome wire wheels. Matching the blue convertible top is none other than a blue leather interior cabin in this 1989 Jaguar XJS. Make your way in, and you have all that old school British luxury all intact, the leather seats give you comfort, and the burl walnut wood veneer interior trim adds that extra touch of opulence.

Engine

Picture this: the news forecast says there’s no bad weather ahead, and this 1989 Jaguar XJS is ready to pounce at your command with its convertible top down. Can life really get any better? The moment you crank this British motor up and its massive V12 engine springs to life, you suddenly start to weigh the options: Whats better, is it the convertible top or that V12 motor? You just hammer along, knowing you have both in your Jag. The influx of cylinders and their size call for being able to breathe more freely and that's where this machine's dual exhaust system and Lucas Digital Fuel Injection come in handy. The gentleman-like performance is channelled to this car's rear wheels through a 3-speed automatic transmission.
