THE APPEAL

Jaguar's luxury grand-tourer, the XJS reigned for over two decades, with Ford producing its final iteration from 1991-1996, it boasts both comfort and power with the usual Jaguar elegance throughout, it's a beloved British classic.

This 1993 registered XJS is a fantastic example of the model and has been kept incredibly preserved by the current owner who has kept it stored in a heated pod, sheltered away from the elements. The combination of this impressive care, low ownership and low miles has resulted in a truly remarkable car and as such likely to be one of the best XJS on the market at this time.

SUMMARY

A recognisable classic, in remarkable condition. This XJS has stood the test of time thanks to its years of being kept under wraps, in a heated pod.

The desirability of these cars is growing as the years pass, mainly due to the car's falling numbers, this makes this original, unrestored option even more appealing.
