1991 Jaguar XJS V12 Classic
Convertible, British Racing Green
Pre-Ford, Built in England
1991 Jaguar XJS Classic Convertible. Original V12 engine. This car has a clear Florida title and has never been wrecked. I am the second owner and have had this auto for about 10 years or so. It has 113,000 miles on it right now. Female owned. She runs great. The faster she goes the smoother the ride. The tires on it are fairly new and have lots of tread. The engine is smooth as silk. The car does need some work and the low price reflects it. I've listed all of the issues that I'm aware of that need to be addressed.
The starter went out on it about a year ago and its been parked in my garage since.
The front brake calipers are leaking and may need replaced.
Engine hoses need replaced. Not leaking but they are due for replacement.
The top's canvas is toast, but frame and electrics are good. The rear deck canvas cover is good.
Needs a battery.
Like all Jag's it has electrical quirks but nothing to keep it from being driven.
Interior is fair.
Exterior is original with no rust and has the preferred wire spoke wheels.
Drivers door only opens from inside.
Rear windows are stuck down. Probably need the wiring looked at.
There are lots of reasonable parts for these cars listed on ebay, so fixing some of these issues won't break your bank!
All in all a way cool beach and weekend rider for a pretty low price. If you are handy with tools and have a garage and a little time you could have a head turning super cool classic for a great price. I hate to see it go but I have not the time, money or know how to fix it myself.
Note this vehicle is listed by ebayer "thebluemeridian" as a favor for a friend. Thanks.

Jaguar rolls out 2014 XJ updates
Tue, 20 Aug 2013It may be an uphill battle with Mercedes-Benz having rolled out its all-new S-Class, but in an effort to entice more customers towards its flagship sedan, Jaguar has announced a series of enhancements for the XJ.
A number of upgrades aim to make the long-wheelbase model that much more accommodating, with new airline-style rear seats that recline, massage and optimize the headroom in the back. The rear suspension has also been recalibrated for comfort, and there's a new optional Meridian sound system with a Conversation Assist feature that uses microphones in the headliner to pick up occupants' voices and pipe them through the speakers to support the art of conversation in motion.
The engine range carries over unchanged, but each engine is now mated to an eight-speed automatic with an available stop/start system which Jaguar says takes less time to restart the engine than it takes for the driver to move his or her right foot from brake to gas. Full details in the press release below.
Jaguar to reveal small sedan at Paris show
Wed, 11 Dec 2013Small sedans are big business for luxury automakers. The C-Class is the top seller for Mercedes-Benz, much as the 3 Series is for BMW, but Jaguar has historically missed out on that market. Its last attempt, the X-Type, proved woefully inadequate, and Jaguar hasn't attempted to take on that market again since. But that's all about to change.
Coventry has been working on a new small Jaguar for some time now (using test mules like the one above wearing modified XF body panels), and according to the latest reports coming in from the UK, it will showcase the result of those efforts at the Paris Motor Show next October. The show car will take the form of a pre-production concept that is expected to preview the production version very closely before the final item is unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show.
Tipped to be called XS (somewhat appropriately for the brand's smallest model), the new sedan is expected to be the first to use the company's new aluminum platform previewed by the C-X17. Expect styling to follow along similar lines to said crossover concept and the F-Type sportscar, with eventual sedan, wagon and coupe versions to round out the family.
Jaguar appoints Joe Eberhardt as North American President
Thu, 19 Dec 2013Jaguar Land Rover North America has appointed a new president, Joachim Eberhardt. The German exec, 50, had previously done stints at Chrysler Group, DaimlerChrysler UK, Mercedes-Benz USA and Daimler-Benz.
Eberhardt joins JLR NA in a good, but challenging time for the company. It's fresh off the launch of the Range Rover Sport and Jaguar F-Type, which have been subject to rave reviews, and its overall sales are up 21 percent over 2012. Still, as Automotive News points out, the two manufacturers face a fight to become the equal of A-list competitors like BMW and Mercedes in the eyes of consumers.
"Joe brings a proven industry track record and valuable global leadership experience in luxury sales, service and marketing. We look forward to Joe leading our North American team in working with our retail networks to further grow the business and better serve our customers," JLR's group sales operations director, Andy Goss, said.
