The Appeal
For many the XJS is peak Jag, and rightly so. A handsome V12 cruiser that has just enough of the old world Jaguar aesthetic to satisfy the nostalgia junkies but still modern enough to not be too capricious, the XJ-S perfectly encapsulates the company’s grace, space, pace ethos with its low, sleek body, smooth engines and refined ride.
Let's not forget the racing kudos either, with the XJS performing as a bona fide race car in period. It may have had a bit of a shaky start but the Jaguar XJS has since earned its place alongside the true greats of the brand.
This beautiful convertible 1990 example, complete with buttery smooth 5.3-litre, 291bhp V12, is a peach and with just 68,548 miles under its belt could be a wise investment. Resplendent in stunning Signal Red paint and featuring a sleek black leather interior, it really does cut quite the dash so if you're in the market for a clean, low mileage XJS, look no further.
