This Jaguar is now in possession for 23 years. History is known. It is driven an average of 2500 kilometers annually and is in excellent driving condition. If ever there was a production Jaguar that should be labelled as `The Most Desirable` it has to be the astonishingly elegant, two-door, pillarless, XJ12 5. 3C.
To find a beautifully original, well cared-for, example is rarer even than the model itself. And this is one such car.
Manufactured in 1975, this car remained in just one ownership from 2001 to 2024 – twenty three years! There is a complete History file and Jaguar Heritage Certificate. Original throughout – other than a recent repaint by ourselves in its correct Greensand – including its beautiful, supple, Tan Connolly leather and trim with original new carpeting, its original Steel Chromed wheels and, most importantly, its original Black Vinyl covered roof with not a single blemish beneath.
Its 5. 3 V12 engine, driving through a GM400 automatic gearbox, delivers outstanding, smooth, performance. Its brakes are firm and sure and its steering: completely accurate.
