The Jaguar XJS. a luxury grand tourer produced from 1975 to
1996. replaced the E-Type. Although it never had quite the same
sporting image. the XJ-S was a competent replacement with better
aerodynamics than the E-Type. The last XJS was produced on 4th
April 1996 by which time 115. 13 examples had been produced during
a 21-year production life. The performance of the V12 compared well
against Italian cars with acceleration of 0-60mph in 7. 6 seconds
and a top speed of 143mph. In 1983. a new 3. 6 litre AJ6
straight-six. four valves per cylinder engine was introduced by
Jaguar and. at the same time. a cabriolet model. the XJ-SC. became
available. The XJ-SC was not a full convertible but had a
non-removable centre targa-type structure and fixed rails above the
doors. The static rear quarter windows of the earlier model also
remained.

Originally registered on 6th August 1987 and supplied by Harvey
Hudson of Woodford. this delightful XJ-SC has had three previous
owners. A well stamped Jaguar service book. together with a
comprehensive collection of invoices confirm this to be an example
that has been cherished and well maintained. The mileage of 59. 09
also appears to be correct and can be confirmed by the history and
previous MoT certificates. E868 MMF starts 'on the button' with no
adverse noises. The targa element of the Cabriolet was often
preferred over the straight convertible as it added more torsional
rigidity and was generally considered better to drive. Finished in
Alpine green with doeskin leather trim. this 3. 6 cabriolet is one
of the few examples produced with an automatic transmission and. as
such. is considered to be highly collectable.
