Description
Jaguar XJ-S V12, Lovingly Maintained.
This is the XJS you've been waiting for. A genuinely well-preserved V12 example with a fully traceable mileage history and a documented maintenance record built up over my nine years of caring ownership.
Road Tax exempt, this grand tourer is remarkably affordable to run — and with my thorough maintenance history since 2016, as well as previous history, you can buy with real confidence.
The original service history book is stamped right up to 2008 (65, 224miles), with a wealth of subsequent invoices.

(Full history available back to 2016)
The trip computer, cruise control, electric aerial, original stereo, electric windows, mirrors, and even the headlamp wash/ wipers all function as they should. The air conditioning has a minor leak, which I haven't prioritised fixing, thus this is the only non-working feature on the car.
The bodywork is solid and the metalwork in good condition throughout. Some minor paint texture issues are visible on the roof, boot lid and front right wing — a cosmetic imperfection linked a previous respray, which has remained completely stable and shown no deterioration.
This is a honest, characterful car that has been used, maintained and genuinely cared for. A true classic ready to be enjoyed. If you're looking for an XJ-S that gains attention and delivers that timeless, effortless cruising experience, look no further. This is a car that earns its place on the road.
What sets this example apart is my history as a Jaguar engineer — with a hands-on passion for the marque — every job has been done with the knowledge and care that most cars simply never receive. This isn't just a well-maintained classic; it's one that has been understood.
Only 4 former keepers prior to myself, with the mileage traceable through the initial service history book, then MOT history.
Current MOT is valid until October 2026, though it is valid for MOT exemption.
(Already recorded as Historic, thus road tax exempt)
