And the longevity of its first generation, which remained on the market for 24 years, only confirms its success. The unit we present today corresponds to the third evolution of the first generation, known as Series III, in which details such as the bumpers with black rubber trim, the adoption of a single window in the front doors and the flush handles on the body stood out.
Under its enormous bonnet we find the most powerful engine available, a 5. 3-litre V12 that produces 285 bhp at 5, 750 rpm. A three-speed automatic transmission distributes the power to the rear axle, guaranteeing the smoothest possible driving experience while providing plenty of power when needed. In its elegant interior, crafted from the finest leathers and woods, we find a wide range of fully functional equipment, such as electric windows, a sunroof, electrically adjustable mirrors, and so on. In short, the Jaguar XJ12 is the perfect car for entering the world of classics in style, but without sacrificing the comfort offered by a Youngtimer. And with the added benefit of twelve cylinders under the bonnet.
