The XJS was launched in 1975, and whilst the fabulous V12 engine could deliver outstanding performance, its thirst for petrol was legendary, which caused problems in the USA, where Jaguar were fined for publishing misleading figures. This promoted the first big change for the model, which was the new HE or High Efficiency engine in 1981. This combined with the much longer final drive, gave the XJS much better fuel economy, which was bearable.
The Jaguar XJS offers its owners a slice of motoring history, defying critics to become one of the world's most successful GT cars. From the introduction of the HE engine in 1982, the 3.6 AJ6 engine in 1984, which expanded to four litres in 1989, the cabriolet in 1985, the full convertible in 1988 and the face-lift model in 1993 to the final commemorative model in 1995,the XJS was continuously developed during its 20 year production life.
This example is a rare car, it's a 1995 Model XJS 4.0, with the later AJ16 engine and a Manual Gearbox. This car is 1 of 28 ever made. The manual gearbox means that you are much more involved with the driving of the car, and the Factory Sports Suspension pack fitted, just makes it better.
Finished in Silver Frost Metallic with Black leather, and the vendor states that the car has Full History, including MOT confirmation. The paint and the trim are all good and the mechanical components appear to be sound. The car has not been used much since 2006, but MOTs and repairs were kept up to date during this time. This is a rare chance to buy a Manual XJS, so few around that it must be an investment opportunity you can enjoy driving.
