This 1985 Jaguar XJ-S V12 has remained registered in California since new, and it was acquired by the seller from their relative in 2009 and now shows 73k miles. Finished in Tudor White over Mulberry leather upholstery, the car is powered by a 5.3-liter V12 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Features include a limited-slip differential, 15″ five-spoke alloy wheels, power-adjustable seats, cruise control, a cassette stereo, and automatic climate control. This XJ-S V12 is offered at no reserve with manufacturer’s literature, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in Tudor White and is equipped with quad headlights, front fog lights, chrome mirror caps, a power antenna, and dual exhaust outlets. Paint chips around the body are noted by the seller.

The 15″ five-spoke alloy wheels have blemishes and are mounted with Pirelli P600 tires. Braking is provided by four-wheel discs.

The power-adjustable seats are upholstered in Mulberry leather, and burl wood veneer accents the dashboard, center console, and door panels. Interior amenities include cruise control, a cassette stereo, automatic climate control, and an onboard computer, the latter of which was replaced in 2012. The passenger seat stitching is torn, the headliner is sagging, and the air conditioning does not work.

The two-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline as well as gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 73k miles, approximately 5k miles of which were added under current ownership.

The 5.3-liter V12 was factory rated at 262 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque. The hood shocks require replacement.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential.
