The Appeal

In 1991, Ford took the reins at Jaguar and dropped the XJ-S's hyphen, along with introducing a swath of upgrades. By 1992, that included both a convertible and bumping the car's legendary V12 powerplant up to 6.0-liter displacement, following in the footsteps of Tom Walkinshaw Racing's aftermarket engine work. This was the largest the legendary buttressed grand tourer ever carried. It was a meaningful hardware upgrade, and thanks to the engine's hemispherical 'Fire Ball' chambers, it wasn't quite the gas guzzler you might expect from a 12-cylinder block. With just 81 right-hand-drive convertibles produced, it is among the most collectible of all XJS variants.

This example, finished in Sapphire Blue metallic over parchment leather, was sold new by TWR Jaguar Oxford in April 1994. It has had just four registered owners, with its second owner keeping the car for 13 years before it passed to Clarkes Jaguar, a highly regarded XJS specialist, who then maintained it for another fifteen years.

The car was then acquired by the seller's late brother in March 2026 and placed straight back into dry storage, where it has remained since. The vendor reports that the car presents in very good order throughout, with all gauges, equipment, and the soft top functioning as intended.
