The Appeal
The Jaguar XJS V12 is one of the marque’s most distinctive grand tourers, combining its elegant long-bodied design with Jaguar’s smooth 5.3-litre V12. This 1991 example has been kept as part of a small private collection of classic Jaguars and stored indoors. It remains largely original and complete, with 79,977 km.
Finished in blue with a matching blue interior, it offers an attractive and very period-correct colour combination. The seats are finished in blue, while the rear of the cabin features a particularly soft fabric trim. The electric roof operates correctly and is in good condition. The car is presented as an honest, usable classic rather than a restored concours example.

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.
