Lot details Registration No: J227MJL Chassis No: SAJJNAED3EK180823 Mot Expiry: Aug 2005
The E-Type replacing XJS appeared in Jaguar dealer showrooms from 1975. Sharing much of its running gear with the XJ6 and XJ12 saloons, albeit with shortened wheelbases and 5.3 litre twelve n or later 3.6 six power unit underbonnet, the Malcolm Sayer styled model was much more of a grand tourer with a decent-sized boot than some minimalist sportscar.
This XJS, a right-hand drive 4-litre coupe, was made in Coventry under Ford Motor Company quality control in 1991, since when it is claimed to have had just two owners. On file, says the vendor, is full service history for the believed to be genuine 168,447 total mileage displayed when entered for this sale. The two-door bodyshell is claimed by him to be good as are the blue paintwork, the alloy wheels and the blue leather interior, whilst the 4-litre engine, the auto-shift transmission and the electrics are reportedly in good order too. Taxed and tested, the current MOT certificate being valid until the end of August, this, says the owner, is a nice specimen of this model in nice condition. Potentially, an XJS like this could also be good value.
