The Car needs Paint and the face plate for the kenwood stereo system was lost. Speedometer works fine but the other gauges do not work and some knobs are missing, window tint looks bad. No A/C the compressor is installed but no condenser.
This is not a perfect car, even after $25,000 dollar's. It is a good mechanically sound car with rebuilt suspension that would make a great daily driver or track day car..... needs tlc.

Why the Jaguar XJS is the future for car collectors
As Jaguar unveils its new XJ model, something exciting is brewing in the classic cars market...
The gleaming, curved bodywork of the new Jaguar XJ was unveiled yesterday (February 9) in its first exhibition before the media and public.
When the new XJ is released onto the anticipation-filled market, it will have an asking price of lb53,000.
But, as Jaguar's new car takes the world by storm, something exciting is brewing in the classic car markets...
Ancestor models of the XJ now date back over three decades, and some of them have been performing very well on the auction blocks...
Only last year, 1991 Jaguar XJ-S XJR-S Coup'e (Chassis Num: 183372) realised $24,895 at a Bonhams & Butterfields sale.
Before that, at Kruse International in 2008, a Jaguar XJS two-door also from 1991 sold for $18,750.
The 1976 Jaguar XJS Trans-AM, sold for $225,500 |
Even as far back as 2002, XJS models were commanding five figures at top auctions. That year, a 1994 Jaguar XJS 'V-12' Convertible sold with no reserve, eventually bringing $34,993 at RM Auctions.
At the same Toronto auction, a 1995 model realised $39,220.
And, for new collectors looking for an inexpensive window into the XJS market, XJS-Mark IIs (1981-1990) have an average sales price of $10,059.
XJS models from the 1980s can bring up-to six figures at auction |
Yet some models have been known to bring as much as $31,016 at sale.
So, in terms of value and collectability, the Jaguar XJS definitely offers a bright future for collectors.
But, for now, the 'holy grail' remains the 1976 Jaguar XJS Trans-AM. The '70s classic has commanded a cool $225,500 at auction.

Jaguar XJS gets resto-mod treatment from England-based TWR
Tue, Apr 30 2024From the Volvo P1800 to the Porsche 928, the resto-modding trend has propelled numerous classics into the 21st century. Born-again English firm TWR rummaged through its own backyard to jump on the bandwagon: it unveiled an updated version of the Jaguar XJS. Known as the Supercat, the resto-modded XJS shares little more than a silhouette and a few basic styling cues with the coupe that inspired it. It's more muscular-looking thanks to a body kit that adds a front splitter, Group B-esque wheel arch flares, a rear spoiler and a massive diffuser integrated into the rear bumper. It gets modern-looking LED lights on both ends, and it rides on center-locking wheels. TWR notes that the body panels are made out of carbon fiber to keep weight in check. Interior pictures haven't been released, though we're told nearly every part of the car will be highly customizable, and we'll need to be patient to find out precisely what's under the hood. To whet our appetite, TWR mentioned a V12 engine supercharged to 600 horsepower and a six-speed manual transmission. All told, it has taken the company more than two years to reach this stage, including intensive real-world testing. TWR notes that the Supercat will make its dynamic debut during the summer of 2024 (our money is on the Goodwood Festival of Speed). If you want one, act fast: production is limited to 88 units globally and pricing starts at GBP225,000 excluding taxes, which represents about $281,500 at the current conversion rate. Dollars matter here: unlike some resto-mods, the Supercat was developed with our market in mind. If the XJS isn't your thing, TWR stresses it has additional resto-modded projects in the pipeline. It hasn't revealed what's next, however. Jaguar XJS View 6 Photos The donor car Released as the XJS for 1976 as a replacement for the E-Type, the two-door Jaguar (shown above) was offered in numerous configurations during a production run that lasted well beyond even the company's expectations; it remained part of the range until 1996. It was offered with a straight-six, a V12, a stick, an automatic, as a coupe, and as a convertible, and it received numerous updates inside and out to remain relatively fresh. Related Video:

Are you the soon-to-be-revealed Jaguar CUV concept?
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Following the teaser of the Jaguar CX-17 Concept released last weekend, the first official image of the Jaguar crossover concept appears to have hit the Internet ahead of its introduction at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
Assuming this is the real deal, the tall, upright front end removes any doubt that this is anything but a preview for the upcoming Jaguar crossover, which will likely be called either the XQ or the Q-Series. Reports suggest that Jag's first-ever CUV is likely to go into production in 2016, and it will bring with it the option for a Jaguar-developed four-cylinder engine replacing the current mills still sourced from former parent Ford.
