**See OCTANE Magazine Sept.'15 Cover Story on the XJ-S (pic) They Call XJ-Ss "The Next Big Thing" -from Harry's Garage: "Super Refined" -even 10 years before This/my car's production. "Spectacular..-so effortless at speed" "Really Impressive" A Desirable, mooth, owerful, omfortable, uiet, uxury GT."
Tom Walkinsaw Racing, aguar's racing team, on the 24 hour Le Mans in '88 & '90 --among other races, ith this same XJ-S Chassis and V-12 engine, hich is legendary for being one of Jaguar's greatest powerplants, roduced for nearly 25 years and often seen with 250,000+ miles. "The Thinking Man's Super-Coupe'". These were Jaguar's top of the line luxury sport coupes competing with:MercedesBenz560SEC-500SL-Porsche928S4 -BMW850i,840Ci-Ferrari400i, ondial, tc.
This XJ-S is a pleasure and thrill to drive, hich makes you feel classy, omfortable, tylish, ast & powerful all in one. So solid, uiet & smooth on the highway, t's easy to be at 80mph without knowing it --going from 60-100 to pass is quick & quiet with the smooth thrust of a Jet. It gets tons of looks and thumbs up everywhere from people with great taste aged 15-90+ yrs old.
I have been a luxury/exotic/classic auto collector and hobbyist for 25+ years & judge at a few local car shows. --Aware of the Jaguar market, own 2 XJ-Ss -just sold a Great '89 Coupe.
++ Values of these luxury V12 Jaguars have been going up 20%+/yr recently, heir limited production, eautiful design, igh desirability and durability will ensure increasing values over the next 15+ years. I only buy quality, ell-cared-for, ust-free, n-wrecked cars in excellent condition that will go up in value.
A CA XJ-S CONVERTIBLE in this great condition with Low miles is very hard to find!
Come Drive & Buy it before it's gone. You can enjoy it for a few years without much needed and then likely sell it at $20,000+.
I WILL DELIVER THIS JAG TO Los Angeles, as Vegas, alm Springs, aybe farther... at buyer's fuel cost & my return expense.
I will assist with transporting of car at buyer's expense --after full payment is received. I would not hesitate to take this car on a 1,000 mile road trip either. The worldwide popularity & success of the XJ-S means tons of resources for parts & technical info. Nearly anything is on eBay & 2 parts yards near Los Angeles have dozens of XJ-Ss for parts, nd I've got many other US resources to share with the buyer.
Feel free to call me with any questions or for specific photos & a time you'd like to come see/drive it.
