Launched in 1975, Jaguar's XJS was never envisaged as a direct replacement for the E-Type. More of a soporific grand tourer than an out-and-out sports car, it was designed to seamlessly blur borders rather than blast down back roads. To this end, it was equipped with automatic transmission as standard. Though, when fed the quoted 295bhp and 318lbft of torque developed by a post-1981 H. E. (high efficiency) 5. 3 litre V12 engine, this still resulted in a claimed top speed of 150mph and 0-60mph in less than eight seconds. Introduced at the 1988 Geneva Motor Show, the long-awaited full convertible version featured a reinforced floorpan, frameless doors and sophisticated electric hood (complete with heated glass rear window). Underpinned by the same all-round independent coil-sprung suspension and power-assisted rack and pinion steering as its fixed head coupe siblings, the soft-top came with anti-lock brakes as standard. Priced at some £40, 000, a waiting list was quick to form.

Manufactured in 1990, the XJ-S offered here was supplied new via Harwoods of Sussex to a Mr P. Kirch in London, being delivered on the 4th of January 1990. Pleasingly still displaying its Harwoods of Sussex rear window sticker, the Jaguar is finished in the attractive colour combination of Westminster Blue paintwork with complementary Beige leather interior upholstery and a Dark Blue hood. Fitted with the 5343cc V12 engine allied to the automatic transmission, UPO 1N has covered a mere 54, 658 miles from new in the hands of only six keepers since first delivery.

The XJ-S, which is believed to still carry its original paintwork and hide interior, is accompanied by the owner's handbook, the original stamped service book illustrating 18 stamps (the first 11 from Jaguar main dealers and the rest by Jaguar Specialists), a collection of previous MOTs, invoices and a current V5C document. The vendor rates the bodywork, electrical equipment, gearbox, paintwork, engine, and interior trim as ‘very good to excellent’.
