The Appeal
The XJS is without doubt one of the most successful Jaguar cars in history. Unruffled and uncompromised, these luxurious grand tourers were controversial at first for their unique styling - but soon managed to capture the hearts of drivers across the market. These smooth ride and impressive interior options made for a truly top-notch tourer.
This particular model, with its striking Champagne metallic colour, is a standout, carrying a particularly glamorous aesthetic thanks to that lovely, pale gold tone. Carrying a warranted 79,942 miles on the odometer, the car was previously owned by a couple in Tuscon Arizona, who used it as a secondary vehicle. Backed by a clean Carfax report, this lovely example offers a superb opportunity for any enthusiast.
