The Appeal

Following its facelift in 1991, Jaguar’s XJ-S lost the hyphen and became the XJS. The design was modernised but the car retained its sleek lines and the capacity of the six cylinder model was increased to 4 litres. In convertible form, as we see here, this only served to increase the core appeal of a refined, grand tourer that was still capable of entertaining the driver roof up or down.

This example hails from the US and is presented in a very desirable colour combination with the beige roof and seats contrasting nicely with metallic red paintwork. Although it will require some attention to make it roadworthy, the reward will be an eye-catching classic that is perfect for enjoying the summer.
