Are you looking for a GORGEOUS - RARE - SURVIVOR - Jaguar XJ12 Series III - ( Top Of The Line Vanden Plas Package / Trim ) - Four Door Sedan and only a BEAUTIFUL - SURVIVOR ORIGINAL - LOW MILEAGE WITH ONLY 79,716 ACTUAL - ORIGINAL MILES SINCE BRAND NEW - PAMPERED example will do ? This is it ! Do not let this one get away ! This BEAUTY would look great in your garage ! Take a look at the lines on this beauty. Styled by the legendary Pininfarina, the Series III Jaguar was termed "the most BEAUTIFUL saloon ever produced." This is a GREAT example of the Beauty and Style of the British luxury passenger cars in the 80's. Only 2,953 Vanden Plas XJ12's were imported to Canada between 1982 and 1992 and FAR fewer made it to the USA !! This Jaguar XJ12 is a NICE - DRY - SOLID - Washington State - Idaho high mountain desert - Western vehicle that is sound and in GORGEOUS shape. We just purchased this BEAUTY from the older previous Washington State owner who has lovingly owned this car for the last 11+ years and drove it less than 5,000 miles during that time and as you can clearly see it was his pride and joy for sure ! This Jag comes with its - FACTORY ORIGINAL - Jaguar Series III V12 Vanden Plas handbook - FACTORY ORIGINAL - Jaguar Heritage XJ12 Parts and Service manual CD - FACTORY ORIGINAL - a-pillar mounted Jaguar VIN tag and it's - FACTORY ORIGINAL - driver's door jam Certification Label sticker, all of which are shown in pictures below. I drove this car for the last several days as my everyday driver to and from the office and running errands as needed and I can assure you it runs and drives VERY WELL. It has AWESOME V12 power and handles like a dream, TOO FUN, what's not to like? If you can make it to Boise in the next ten days please come and look this car over for yourself, you won't be disappointed !! This is a QUALITY CAR FOR SURE and if you like attention then this car is for you.

This BEAUTY has what appears to be the STRONG - ORIGINAL - Code "X" - Jaguar - Fuel Injected 5.3 Liter V12 (262 Horsepower) motor in it and is running VERY well indeed. The engine still retains it's ORIGINAL aluminum intake manifolds, ORIGINAL exhaust manifolds, ORIGINAL air cleaner housings and the ORIGINAL valve covers. Sounds good too with the factory style true dual exhaust system. The engine is backed by a SMOOTH - Factory "GM400" -  three speed automatic transmission which also functions very well. The - ALL FACTORY ORIGINAL !! - Code "LDY" - Savile Gray Leather and Real Wood Grain accented interior is in BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL condition including VERY NICE ORIGINAL Savile Gray Leather front bucket seats with factory headrests, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Savile Gray carpeting, VERY NICE Real Wood Nardi steering wheel with Jaguar horn button,  VERY NICE ORIGINAL Matching Savile Gray door panels with real wood grain accents, VERY NICE Light Tan cloth headliner, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Real Wood Grain dash, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Charcoal Vinyl dash pad with NO CRACKS, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Light Tan Vinyl sunvisors, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Savile Gray and Real Wood Grain accented center console with a padded center armrest, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Savile Gray Leather rear seat with fold down center armrest and VERY NICE ORIGINAL factory gauge clusters.  In my opinion you're not going to find a much nicer FACTORY ORIGINAL interior in a 26 year old car than the one that's in this BEAUTY, UNBELEIVABLE !! In true Jaguar fashion this XJ12 Vanden Plas is nicely equipped including WORKING FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING, working automatic climate control, factory power steering, factory power brakes with disc's up front, factory power windows, factory 2 way power adjustable front bucket seats, working factory power sunroof, factory glove box mounted vanity mirror, factory cruise control, factory power delay wipers, factory guage package with factory tachometer and 140 MPH speedometer, factory trip odometer, factory telescoping steering wheel, factory front and rear seat belts, factory headlight wipers, good heater and defroster, factory rear window defogger, working original digital trip computer, factory dual fuel tanks, original day / night rear view mirror, original dual chrome remote side view mirrors, factory eye-level 3rd brake light, factory dual rear reading lights, factory power antenna, factory back up lights, and an AWESOME Nakemichi AM / FM / CD player digital stereo radio with four mid-range speakers mounted in the door panels and an Alpine 4 channel amplifier mounted in the trunk. This British Luxury Car has STUNNING looks and AWESOME power as well ! These vehicles have an appreciative group of owners any of which would be pleased to own this one. The suspension and drivetrain are all in good working order as well as the electrical system. All the lights work including the headlights, taillights, front and rear turn signals. Speaking of lights all of the ORIGINAL light and reflector lenses are clear, bright, uncracked and BEAUTIFUL. All of the ORIGINAL rubber weatherstripping is still soft, supple and in GREAT condition for being ORIGINAL !!

 

This Jaguar V12 VANDEN PLAS is GORGEOUS !! This ride is a great investment opportunity and it is priced right ! It is in GREAT condition from top to bottom and from front to back. It will not disappoint someone looking for a good example of a sought after and hard to find - VERY RARE - British collector luxury car which is not seen at every stop light for sure. If you have been looking but cannot find a Classic British Luxury Car worthy of your hard earned money look NO further because this is the one ! The FACTORY ORIGINAL !! - Code "LDP" - Dorchester Gray exterior finish is EYE POPPING BEAUTIFUL showing only a few very small chips and is still bright and shiny and looks STUNNING as you can clearly see in the pictures !! What a STUNNING color combination, is there any better for a British luxury car? All of the ORIGINAL chrome and stainless steel exterior body trim and moldings are VERY NICE including VERY NICE ORIGINAL chrome and black rubber front and rear bumpers, VERY NICE ORIGINAL chrome grill and headlight surrounds and VERY NICE ORIGINAL badging. Check out the VERY NICE - FACTORY ORIGINAL - Jaguar alloy wheels with correct Jaguar center caps wrapped in NEARLY NEW Firestone Affinity steel belted radial tires, boy does this combination look OUTSTANDING on this Jag and really retains that "CLEAN FACTORY ORIGINAL" look, TOO COOL !! The Clean - Solid trunk also sports the ORIGINAL Gray carpet liner, a full size spare tire and the original jack and lug wrench. This vehicle is in nice mechanical condition and it runs and drives very well. It is solid with respect to the overall mechanical condition as well as the overall cosmetic impression. I looked underneath and also included photos below. Again this is a NICE - DRY - SOLID - Washington state - Idaho high mountain desert - western vehicle. In my opinion you're not going to find much nicer ORIGINAL FLOORS than the ones on this BEAUTY !!  Please pay close attention to the picture and video above and the 100 ADDITIONAL PICTURES BELOW and this description as they will answer most if not all of your questions. If you would like to speak with me my name is Ross and my telephone number is (208) 866-4055 or you can email if you prefer. As always I tried to get as thorough and in depth with the photographs as possible.
