Description
This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the Warwickshire Event Centre on Saturday the 7th of December, Warwickshire Event Centre, CV31 1FE.
The Celebration was the final iteration of Jaguar's XJ-S (later XJS).

Powered by the naturally-aspirated, AJ16 4-litre straight-six, delivering 238bhp to the rear wheels through a 4-speed ZF automatic gearbox
From 12 years current ownership and with six former registered keepers, this Celebration was first registered on 16/ 10/ 1995 and is finished in Sapphire Blue with Oatmeal leather
An MOT failure in September 2019 (see Condition Report) and the car has not been used since
There is a partial service history, with records of the previous services until 2018 (mainly Auto Classico). Work during our vendor's ownership is documented with receipts
As with any classic car needing work to get back on the road, we would encourage any prospective bidders to come along to the Sale and inspect the car so they can see it for themselves what may, or may not need doing
