Description

The XJC's, otherwise known as the XJ Coupes, are a rare two-door version of the standard four door saloons.

They were clearly meant to be the sporty XJ models and overall, the XJC's are quite well proportioned and have a masculine air to them.

The styling of the pillarless coupe gives a sense of "openness" that is often associated with a convertible. The shorter wheelbase also gives the car an incredible appearance of balance and aggressiveness. All coupes were equipped with a black vinyl roof as standard equipment. The car somehow feels quite smaller than the longer wheelbase four door cars, which is only four inches shorter, and its handling is quite different as well.

ABOUT THIS CAR

 Chassis #: 2J2301BW
 Rare – only 1776 examples were built in 1977. The production runs were made from 1975 through 1977 with some cars produced during 1977 registered as 1978 models. In all, XJC production numbers are very low by Jaguar standards and the XJC is considered to be Jaguar's rarest production model.
 Nice straight body.
 Car was professionally repainted in original colour (Opalescent Silver Grey) some years ago, so comes with very nice paintwork.
 Mechanically sound – recent work include reconditioned radiator, reconditioned steering rack.
 Very good tires.
 Interior in very good condition for age.
 Power assisted steering
 Servo assisted disk brakes front and rear – ventilated front disks
 Twin fuel tanks
 Full four seat accommodation
 Heated rear window
 Leather Seats

I have found that most photographs don't do these cars justice and that they are actually more beautiful when you see them in person.

Desirable and highly sought after model, this rare classic is worth your attention.

Will be sold WOF'd and Registered if sold in New Zealand.

TRANSPORT / SHIPPING CAN BE ORGANISED ON THIS VEHICLE ON BUYER'S BEHALF AT BUYERS COST.

Viewing is STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT only.
