cgi.ebay.com.au/JAGUAR-XJS-1988-V12-Sports-Coupe_W0QQitemZ280273616268
Car has a buy it now price of AU $14,900 available for 3 days.

Sellers description:
This unique and outstanding vehicle is in excellent condition inside and out. It drives superbly as a normal everday car or if want some excitement then when you put your right foot down, get ready for a ride of your life. These vehicles were the Supercars of their day & once you have driven one, it is understandable as to why they won so many races, including Bathurst in 1985.

I will list the GOOD & then the BAD (there is certainly NO UGLY)

The GOOD
*
V12 5.3 Engine in excellent condition
*
Engine has had upgrades to it including, Heavy duty spark plug leads, fuel rack & injector plumbing.
*
Excellent tyres fitted to later model Factory 8" x 16" mag wheels.
*
Polyurathane bushes fitted to supension offering more direct road feeling without loosing the ride comfort.
*
Sports rear mufflers, sounds great. We do have the original ones if wanted.
*
ABS brake system - only fitted to these later model vehicles.
*
Original tool case & tools (one missing see photos)
*
NO Rust any where on the vehicle.
*
Great looking vehicle & certainly looks much more value than the price I am asking.
*
All the usual Jaguar features that you would expect such as Power steering, Remote Central Locking, Climate control Air Conditioning, Power windows, plus much more.

The BAD
*
Timber on Dash & ski slope are showing signs of small cracking, does not detract from the cars appearance at all. The rest of the interior is in excellent condition.
*
Some stains in the boot carpet as shown in the photos, would probably shampoo out OK.

The car has been meticulously maintained, always garaged and drives like a new. We have known the previous owners for the past 10 years that they have owned the vehicle. This vehicle cost approximately $120,000 AUD new and therefore represents unbelievable value for money at this price. Basically speaking...You get a lot of car for this price.
