More a long-legged GT than a pure sportscar like its forebear, the XJS used the saloon platform and running gear of the XJ6/XJ12, debuting as a V12 powered coupé with six-cylinder and soft top versions following in the 1980s. Its 21 year production life was a testimony to the excellence of its basic design. The XJS's superlative 5.3 litre motor developed some 295bhp in later fuel injected form and when allied to automatic transmission gave authoritative 150mph performance. 

In 2022, and in celebration of Jaguar specialist SNG Barratt’s 40 years in the business, a 1982 Jaguar XJ-S was sourced, fully serviced and amongst other items fitted with new injectors, shock absorbers, brakes and lines, tyres, and headlights. A bespoke luggage set by Aldridge Trimming was tailored and then fitted to the car. The finished car was then given away as a raffle prize in a draw during the 2022 NEC Classic Car Show. 

With just 50,600 miles recorded, this classic Jaguar is usefully now MoT, ULEZ and tax-free, and offered complete with original service book, some older service history and new MoT certificate. The Argent Silver coachwork remains in good order, whilst the black leather interior, featuring original Philips stereo, is nicely preserved. A well sorted XJ-S which drives extremely nicely, in our view a worthy prospect for the Jaguar enthusiast.
