THIS LOT HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN

Registration No: B33 JGY
Chassis No: SAJJNACC7CC114990
MOT: September 2023

  • One family ownership and just c.36,000 miles from new
  • One of just six Tickford produced cars with a desirable manual gearbox
  • Offered in the attractive combination of Red with contrasting Tan interior

The XJS was Jaguar's replacement for the iconic E-Type. Based on the XJ Saloon, the Coupe made its first appearance in September 1975, powered by the company's 5.3-litre V12 engine mated to either a manual or automatic gearbox. The following year, the model took to the race tracks, taking first and second place in the Silverstone TT. The Cabriolet version, the XJ-SC, made its debut in 1983, equipped with the new 3.6-litre AJ6 engine. This two-seater (or 2+2-seater) model was not a full convertible, having a non-removable centre section and fixed cant rails. The option of Jaguar's established 5.3-litre V12 engine came in 1985 and in 1988 the Targa-type body was succeeded by a fully Convertible one. Some 12,372 Convertible XJSs and 5,013 Cabriolet XJ-SCs were made before the model range was replaced by the XK8.

Before the model's manufacture was brought in-house, production of the early versions of the Targa-topped XJ-SC were outsourced to the established British coachbuilder Tickford. ‘B33 JGY’ is one of the rare Tickford-built examples, made even rarer being one of just six cars that had its 3.6-litre engine driven through a manual rather than automatic gearbox, which was the more common choice at the time. Presented in the attractive combination of Red with contrasting Tan leather interior, this car, in single family ownership from new displays just c.36,000 miles and is offered with an MOT valid until September 2023.

Included with the vehicle is its original bookpack, a large collection of previous invoices and MOT certificates, as well as the V5C document which displays 3 former keepers. The vendor rates the condition of the bodywork, engine, electrical equipment, paintwork and transmission as ‘Very Good’, with the interior trim ‘Good to Very Good’.
