Comments from the seller

"For those who understand… no explanation is necessary. For those who don’t… no explanation will do." The 80s are back. Own the car that graced Monaco boulevards and Beverly Hills driveways — now ready to turn heads on the streets of Perth and along West Coast Highway. The late 1980s were the golden age of the grand tourer, and few cars embodied it better than the Jaguar XJS Convertible. Long, elegant, and unmistakably British, it was and remains the choice of those who appreciate fine motoring and subtle power. This 1988 example is a Left-Hand Drive convertible — ideal for collectors or those wanting to stand out from the sea of right-hand drive cars in Australia. Powered by Jaguar’s legendary 5.3L V12, it delivers effortless acceleration and a ride smoother than silk. Specifications: Year: 1988 Engine: 5.3L V12 (original & well-maintained) Transmission: Automatic Drive: Left-Hand Drive Exterior: – Red deep, glossy finish Interior: Cream leather with real wood veneer Mileage: 160,000 Km Condition: Excellent – garaged and cherished If Interested please Call Roy on 08 9296 7132
