1991 Jaguar XJS V12 — Jaguar Blue | Impeccably Maintained | Rare, Refined, and Ready to Drive A timeless grand tourer that captures the essence of classic British luxury, this 1991 Jaguar XJS V12 is a beautifully preserved and tastefully upgraded example of one of Jaguar’s most elegant designs. Finished in striking Jaguar Blue, it commands attention wherever it goes — the deep gloss enhanced by a professional detail and ceramic coating that highlights every curve. Mechanical & Driving Enhancements This XJS has been thoughtfully upgraded and meticulously maintained to enhance both comfort and drivability while staying true to its heritage: • All suspension bushings replaced — restoring that signature Jaguar ride with modern precision. • Rear torsion bar added — delivering improved balance, road feel, and cornering stability. • New front spindles and wheel bearings — ensuring smooth, confident handling. • New tyres fitted — for optimal ride comfort and traction. • Freshly detailed and ceramic coated exterior — providing deep gloss and lasting protection. Condition This Jaguar has clearly been cherished. Mechanically, it runs superbly — the legendary 5.3L V12 starts easily, idles smoothly, and delivers effortless power through the automatic transmission. The interior remains in excellent shape, showcasing the craftsmanship that defined the marque: supple leather, polished woodgrain, and classic British refinement. While not a perfect car, it’s damn close for a vehicle of this age. There are minor cosmetic imperfections on a few body panels, consistent with age and use — but nothing that detracts from the car’s presence or overall beauty. It presents exceptionally well and draws admiration wherever it goes. This XJS represents a rare opportunity to own an iconic piece of Jaguar history — one that has been loved, improved, and kept in superb condition. It’s not perfect, but for a 1991 V12, it’s impressively close — and a joy to own and drive. Serious enquiries only. Inspections welcome by appointment.
