Description
Here we have a great example of the popular Jaguar XJS V12 LE-MANS Edition.
This car is a true collectors car , made in very limited numbers only 280 ever built and this is number 85, this being a genuine uk car with only 77k miles and low ownership, coming from a deceased estate.
The Jaguar XJS was a luxury grand tourer produced from 1975 through to 1996 and replaced the E-Type. Although it never had quite the same sporting image, the XJS was a competent grand tourer and actually more aerodynamic than the E-Type. The last XJS was produced on 4th April 1996 ending its 21 year production life. it was able to accelerate to 60mph in 7. 6 seconds and had a top speed of 143mph. From July 1981, the XJS received the new High-Efficiency engine for much better economy, and the power was increased to 295bhp. To commemorate Jaguars success at the 24hr of LE MANS in 1988 and again in 1990 a limited edition 'Le Mans' model was introduced. The Le Mans Edition model added extra leather trim, 'Le Mans' motifs to headrests and foot plates, and the 'Growler' bonnet badge, 16" 'lattice' alloy wheels and a 'Le Mans' boot badge to the package. Each of the 280 cars produced was individually numbered.
