The Appeal

For those in search of a modern classic for European grand touring, a V12 Convertible XJ-S has a lot to offer. With 291 horsepower on tap, it has ample performance for long-distance jaunts, while that Sayer styling has aged very gracefully.
This 1989 example stands out for its low mileage of just 48,531 miles and comprehensive documentation including a clean Carfax that confirms both its mileage and damage-free history. 

Finished in red with a matching convertible top, this XJ-S comes complete with its original window sticker detailing its factory options, including power leather seats, burl walnut interior trim, and a premium sound system. Having been recently serviced less than 250 miles ago, this V12 convertible is ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.
