The Appeal
The XJS was Jaguar’s first step into more modern, angular designs, and marked the end of an era when it came to classic styling. It’s certainly a bit of an acquired taste when it comes to presentation - but a guaranteed winner when it comes to performance.
The V12 engine, superb handling and effortless performance have led to the XJS becoming an increasingly desirable classic. This Glacier White example is immediately impressive, with contrasting alloys and a very attractive interior.
