Jaguar XJS V12 CABRIOLET 1990 for sale

Succeeding the Jaguar Type E was no small feat, but the XJS introduced in 1975 did well with an original line and a character oriented towards grand touring. Equipped with the noble 5.3-liter V12 that had made its first steps on the Type E Series, it offered high-level performance combined with a comfort and quietness of operation that its predecessor did not know. This model had a high level of finish, very luxurious, offering heated leather upholstery, as well as an electric hood. The convertible version is particularly enjoyable to use on small roads at moderate speeds, as well as on long distances at higher speeds thanks to the extraordinary stretch of its V12, only the somewhat high consumption has been criticized. Our model was delivered new in 1990 in the United States in Minneapolis in this beautiful color combination, it was re-imported to Europe in 2012 in the Netherlands.
