I bought as a project expecting to do a lot of work but just was not required. The previous owners took very good care of car. She has 45,788+/- miles approximately. Still driving her as long as this convertible weather holds out. The car has good tires, hoses, belts, and near perfect interior and top. I replaced the battery, flushed fuel system, replaced the fuel pump and filters. Fresh oil and filter as well. 12 new spark plugs (although, I don't think she really needed them).Car's original owner for 15 plus years from Odessa Texas. Dry desert = 100% rust free car. The hydraulic top, electric windows, seats, cruise control, A/C (R12), & all lighting work perfectly. Included is a nice exterior car cover. Aftermarket radio installed but original is included. Original owners manual, heritage certificate, factory supplied tools. I Don't have to sell but want a new project. I will assist with loading for delivery."

 1992 Jaguar XJS. Excellent daily driver. 45,788+/- miles; Still driving in nice weather. Garaged since I've owned it and probably most of her 21 year old life.
I believe I am the 3rd owner. In this section only I will list known issues. The anti lock brake light is occasionally flickering. My Jag specialist made several suggestions which included replace the accumulator and drain and flush the brake system. I have not done these things as the car has excellent brakes and all disc were replaced fairly recently as all pads are full and calipers show No wear at all. Crawling underneath for the first time shocked me. Almost spotless and No rust not even surface rust.
The hood does have 2 noticeable dings. The trunk lid has a small area of peeling clear coat (Pictured). The car should have electric locks and a factory key-fob; I do not have the key-fob. I do have 2 ignition keys and 1 door-lock key. The electric antenna is not working properly but can be raised and lowered manually.
The car is an absolute dream to drive. I can assist with loading on YOUR arranged transporter OR I will gladly pick you up from the airport as I feel very confident in the car's ability to be driven Anywhere in the US. Sorry, I will not accept or help with transport overseas. Repairing, driving, enjoying, and moving on to a new and different model is my quirky hobby. Having said that I sincerely believe that I will own another XJS and hopefully soon. Just a very enjoyable purist  driving experience. Having driven many BMW and Mercedes Benz cars of various types in the last 20 years sort of pushed me "frightened" into this Jaguar experience and now I'm hooked. Luxury Convertible like NO other can even come close to for such small $$$. I check my email daily and if you're Serious and want this car...send me a message and I'll make myself available over the phone. Also, I will gladly send more pictures by way of my phone if there's something you would like a better picture of. I'm looking for an offer at least Close to my asking price as far as negotiating is concerned.

Jaguar's EV plans now include a large, lavish sedan that won't be called XJ

Tue, Sep 5 2023

Autocar reports Jaguar has resuscitated plans for an electric XJ after canceling the previous attempt, albeit under a different name. There are supposedly two Jaguar-branded EVs arriving in 2025. We know one will be a four-door GT the automaker teased in April of this year. The scant intel we received on it claimed more power than any previous retail Jaguar, besting the 590-horsepower XE SV Project 8, and a starting price around GBP100,000 (around $125,000). We'll guess the output claim represents a top-shelf trim, the starting price represents an entry-trim. The most expensive hardtop the company sells in the U.K. now is the F-Type R 75, asking GBP103,075. A Porsche Taycan, the obvious comparison to a sporty, four-door, six-figure, battery-electric GT, starts at GBP79,200 and runs to GBP148,300 for the Taycan Turbo S. Autocar said company sources outed the Jag as a lavish electric sedan that is effectively, in the magazine's words, a "de-facto XJ replacement but larger and much more luxurious." The Coventry automaker's been dealing with even more turmoil than usual in the past several years, so it's difficult to pin down how many times plans have changed and when. It's thought the original plan had the GT launching ahead of two SUVs. The larger of the two SUVs would be flagship of a three-model electric lineup, specced and priced to challenge the Bentley Bentayga, the English maker joining a cadre of mass-market luxury brands going superluxe and repeatedly naming Bentley as the target. In July of last year, Autocar reported the new plan was "a trio of... electric crossovers," a near-production concept not due until the end of 2024. Now, Autocar's sources maintain the model count remains at three, all of which will sit on the dedicated, long-wheelbase Jaguar Electric Architecture (JEA). If this plan holds, there will be that four-door GT against the Taycan, the SUV against the Bentley, and the swanky sedan as something like a BMW i7 competitor. It is expected to be about the length of the 219-inch Bentley Mulsanne, offer all-wheel drive, all-wheel steering, a range spread of about 385 to 475 miles on the European cycle, and the ability to recharge its battery from 10% to 80% in 13 minutes. The report also said the output floor would be at around 450 hp.

Jaguar XJ220 hooned remotely by a kid

Sat, 31 Aug 2013

The Tax the Rich crew has a knack for indulging in automotive fantasies and capturing it all on video, such as a tug-of-war battle between two Ferrari F50s, drifting a Ferrari Enzo on gravel roads and even powersliding a Rolls-Royce Phantom on a field of wet grass. This latest video features a Jaguar XJ220 and a kid with an iPad, who somehow is able to control the old supercar with the Apple product.
No, there's no app for that (yet), and we lied - the boy isn't actually controlling the car - but it sure is nice to see the XJ220 in all its turbocharged, six-cylinder glory doing donuts and sliding across a grassy field. It jolts us to see the old Jaguar - capable of 217 miles per hour and once described by Jeremy Clarkson as having no brakes and massive turbo lag - thrown about like a rally car, but then we never imagined anybody would abuse a Rolls-Royce like that either. We'll continue to leave the high-stakes antics to Tax the Rich - we're just glad somebody had the guts to behave so badly in such a valuable machine. What else were they made for?
Be sure to check out the video below, if you have a pulse.

Ian Callum makes the Jaguar C-X75 concept street-legal

Thu, Feb 29 2024

Unveiled at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, the Jaguar C-X75 could have been one of the British brand's wildest and coolest models. It received the green light for production, got canned, and resurfaced in the 2015 James Bond movie Spectre before disappearing for good. However, not everyone has forgotten it: Callum, the design firm founded by former Jaguar design boss Ian Callum, has made a C-X75 street-legal. Precisely how Callum's customer ended up with a C-X75 remains a mystery. The example modified is one of the four surviving stunt cars built by Williams Advanced Engineering for Spectre, so it might be the one that auction house RM Sotheby's offered at its Abu Dhabi sale in November 2019. The car was estimated to sell for anywhere between $800,000 and $1.2 million; it ended up not selling during the auction. Regardless, Callum was the right person to take on the Herculean task of making an obscure, experimental supercar street-legal, as he led the team that designed the model. His company made hundreds of small but significant changes including replacing the glass, adding a quieter exhaust with catalytic converters, making tuning changes to the supercharged, 5.0-liter V8, and fitting additional switches inside. Interestingly, the stunt cars were built with foam door mirrors. These had to be replaced with real mirrors fitted with turn signal repeaters. The team also took advantage of the tear-down to make visual improvements, such as reducing and aligning the panel gaps. The C-X75 received a new coat of paint, and engineers made changes to the suspension system — they notably adjusted the ride height. It helps that this version of the C-X75 uses an engine already approved for road use; the V8 has powered the Range Rover, among other cars. Callum's street-legal Jaguar C-X75 will make its public debut at the Bicester Heritage Scramble event held in England on April 21, 2024.
