Jaguar XJ-S

Vehicle Description

When XJ-S drivers rave about their Jag, they call her the most emotional car they have ever had. Graceful and strong, stylish and extravagant, classy and beautiful. Without alternative! These attributes come to mind when you’re gripped by passion. And honestly, that can happen so fast …

This 1990 model XJ-S is equipped with the 5.3 litre V12 and was imported from the US in 2014
The feature list is typically long: Beige leather, power windows, automatic transmission, on-board computer, cruise control, air conditioning, heated seats.

The vehicle has considerable optical and technical shortcomings as well as bodywork deficiencies and is being offered as a restoration project. This large cat needs attention! Fortunately, the supply of spare parts is still very good, although the XJ-S have already become a rarity on our roads.

With “Cylinders: V12”, it beat them all, or almost. A winning type therefore – despite being eyed with rather a lot of suspicion at its presentation – hardly surprising, after all, being the heir to an undisputed cult object such as the Jaguar E-Type is certainly no easy game to play.

And yet it has managed, in its very own way. Precisely by being different: Massive, dignified, courageous, athletic only at second glance – a bit quirky even, a car for individualists. And they honored it, kept buying the distinctive upper-class coupe for over two decades. During this period, the modifications took place almost exclusively underneath the sheets: Never change a winning, er, cat.

Even with the straight 6 engines, the big cat was far from underpowered, and owing to its innovative chassis, sports car connoisseurs can still feel like winners today.
