The Jaguar XJS was, without doubt one of the finest grand touring cars of its day, even though it raised a few eyebrows when it was launched. It managed to survive Jaguars British Leyland era, the company's subsequent privatisation and the takeover by Ford. The XJS Cabriolet represented the halfway house between a coupe and a full convertible. The cabriolet maintains a great deal of street cred nowadays and as such has already become a classic in its own right irrespective of whether it's a 6 or 12 cylinder car. With a total production run of only 5000 cars, less a number that have wasted away, these cars are a great investment for the future.

We are informed by the vendor that E884 DTA was originally supplied new by Wadham Stringer of Northampton on the 9th January 1987 to a Mrs CJ Wright of Gerrards Cross. Interestingly we are told that the car comes complete with its original dealer hand pack and books which includes the original service book. Upon inspection we are told there are 7 stamps in the Jaguar service book with the last one being dated 19th June 1991 at which point there was a mileage recording of 23558. The car now shows a mileage of 31404; whilst we can in no way confirm or guarantee mileage on a restoration car like this we don't think it would be too difficult to get clarification on this particular issue.

The vendor informs us that this very rare XJS cabriolet is actually in remarkably good shape throughout and not only that it is complete in every way from bodywork and chrome trim to engine components and all interior trim, it even has the original tool kit. A fantastic opportunity to buy a very collectable XJS that could actually be worth a whole lot more.
