Desirable Celebration edition, the final year of XJS production
67,063 miles warranted by Carfax showing 24 service records
Serviced in December 2025 at 66,997 miles
EU import duties and VAT paid
The Appeal
The Celebration was Jaguar's farewell to the XJS, a grand tourer that had been in production for over two decades. Built only for the 1996 model year, it was distinguished by Connolly leather with contrasting piping, burl walnut trim throughout, embossed Jaguar headrests, and diamond-polished alloy wheels. In convertible form and finished in Spindrift White, this is a particularly appealing specification.
This example has covered 67,063 miles from new, with its Carfax report tracing its life from North Carolina to Florida. Maintenance has been kept up to date: in August 2024, the A/C condenser and alternator were both replaced, and in December 2025, a service and pre-delivery inspection were carried out ahead of its export to the Netherlands. It arrives with EU duties and VAT paid, ready for its next chapter.XJS (8).jpg1.49 MB

This vehicle is sold with its original US Title. Please note that it has not yet been road-registered or safety- inspected within the EU.

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 of this vehicle is registered as a business seller. And you are covered by Car & Classic’s 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.
✓ This vehicle is “Sold As Seen”, on an “As Is Where Is’ basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status and it's always worthwhile carrying out your own full vehicle history check before making an offer.
✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection
or delivery. Importing vehicles may result in additional customs duties and import taxes so it's worth checking beforehand. It is the bidders responsibility to confirm import eligibility prior to purchase.
