1988 Jaguar XJS C V12 Targa/Convertible This was Jaguar's response to
demands for an open-top XJS. They adopted a stylish Targa top, cleverly
concealing a substantial roll hoop in the interests of maintaining rigidity and
safety. Two removable panels could be stored easily in the trunk and the new car
featured a pair of luggage lockers topped by a parcel shelf in place of the
Coupe's two rear seats. They are quite rare, especially in the V-12
configuration.
This example is in very nice
overall condition and has all the bits and pieces for the different
configurations. All of the gauges work, as does
the stereo and AC. There is a bit of wear on the
drivers seat, but given its age I would say it’s well above average. The paint
is shiny and smooth. I see no evidence of an accident or repairs to the body.
The one issue I have noticed is an intermittent drivers side window. As of now
it is in the up position and will not go down. I’m not sure if it’s a window
switch, regulator or motor. The removable Targa tops are in
excellent condition and I see no sign of water leakage.
It starts and runs very well.
Brakes feel great and it goes down the road straight and true. It does not
smoke and the motor sounds great. This car has all of the books, spare, tools
and other goodies that it originally came with. It even has the original
cassette tape extolling the virtues of Jaguars finery as well as the original
touch-up paint. I can’t even remember the last
time I saw one of these XJS C’s, if you are in the market, this is a great
example!
As always, feel free to call or
email with any questions. Inspections are welcome, BEFORE
the end of auction. We can arrange shipping anywhere
in the US or worldwide. Call Josh 503-475-8078 or

Jaguar Classic heading to Le Mans with vintage racers
Wed, Feb 3 2016A grid full of vintage Jaguars will rumble into France in July to race in the Jaguar Classic Challenge during the Le Mans Classic. The event should give motorsport fans plenty to watch with a bevy of pre-1966 Jags on the famous circuit, including E-Types, XKs, C-Types, D-Types, and even the company's sedans. Jaguar launched the vintage racing series last year to build on the success of the popular E-type Challenge. It continues with a five-event calendar this season but swaps out a meeting at Brands Hatch to go to Le Mans – hard to argue with that change. The drivers also get to lap Donington Park, Silverstone, the Nurburgring, and Oulton Park. Le Mans is practically a home track for these classic Jags. The British automaker dominated the 24-hour race there in the 1950s, including overall victories in '51, '53, '55, '56, and '57. "Watching a diverse array of pre-1966 Jaguars racing on the iconic circuit, some of which even raced there in period, will surely be a sight not to be missed," Tim Hannig, Jaguar Land Rover Classic Director, said in the season announcement. Again, we find it hard to argue with that sentiment.

The Le Mans Classic will be one of the major highlights of the forthcoming season that will see a diverse field of pre-1966 Jaguars going wheel-to-wheel in the competitive single-marque series. Jaguar has a long and successful history at Le Mans, with the marque first winning there back in 1951 with Peter Walker and Peter Whitehead driving the C-type - affectionately known as XKC 003. A one-two finish followed this in 1953 with the duo of Tony Rolt and Duncan Hamilton taking overall honours. Jaguar dominated Le Mans for three consecutive years in 1955, 1956 and 1957 in the D-type.
Jaguar builds F-Type to support Tour de France team [w/video]
Tue, 22 Jul 2014The Tour de France is typically a two-wheeled affair, dominated by cyclists yearning to capture the prestigious yellow jersey. While the 2014 event winds its way through Europe, Stage 20 will see an altogether different conveyance wind along the route between Bergerac and Périgueux - the Jaguar F-Type Coupe.
As part of its partnership with the British cyclists of Team Sky, Jag has enlisted its new Special Operations division to build a one-off F-Type Coupe, based on the 550-horsepower, supercharged R model.
SpecOps has removed the rear glass and come up with a creative solution to mount a pair of Team Sky's racing cycles in the back. Aside from that upgrade, the cabin boasts new upholstery in the colors of Team Sky's traditional livery. A separate power supply has been established below the bikes in what's left of the trunk, which provides juice for a set of radios and microphones, so that the team's director can communicate with the riders.
