Sellers description:
This is the nicest XJS I have seen. It has been pampered here in Southern California by 3 careful owners. The last two are well known members of the Jaguar Owners Club and the car is garage kept and covered all the time. We have receipts going way back for any maintenance work performed to keep this Jaguar running and looking like new.

The exterior black paint is deep and rich looking and is a solid 9.5 out of 10. There are no swirl marks and with the exception of one or two small blems the paint is excellent. There is no evidence anywhere of any damge or repairs and of course there is no rust anywhere with the car being in SoCal since new and fastidiously maintained and stored. All chrome is excellent. The alloy wheels are unmarked and have a great set of Pirelli Cinturato P7's.

The interior of this great touring car has been reupholstered in its original "Antelope" leather and is perfect. There are no wear marks anywhere. The seats are comfortable for long drives. The dash wood is very nice but there are a couple of small blemishes or tiny cracks in a couple of small areas. Nothing to worry about.

The engine starts instantly and purrs. The transmission and brakes are excellent. All the dash instruments work and all power equipment works as new. The power top rises on command to open up for great top down driving. There is the factory cover for the folded top. The car drives like new. It is extremely comfortable with plenty of power from the 6 cylinder engine. There are no rattles of any kind.

This is a stunning car in every way and easily one of the very best in the country.
