The Appeal
Grace, Pace, Space - that was the old Jaguar tagline. It was arguably in 1975 that they most fulfilled those aspirational values, when they unveiled the rather bold, grand-tourer set up of the XJS. When it first launched, this was a highly controversial car - certainly a stark contrast to the E-type successor that the general public were expecting - but time was exceptionally kind, and the XJS stayed in production for over 20 years, and is now a hugely popular classic.
This 1992 example spent its life in the dry climate of Arizona before reaching the Netherlands, which is no doubt why it appears so solid and well-presented. Having gone through only two former keepers and accompanied by a clean CARFAX report, this fine convertible offers a great avenue into Jaguar ownership. All that's required is registering the car in Europe and getting it inspected.
