1985 Jaguar XJS H.E. V12

Description

This 1985 Jaguar XJS represents its era quite nicely. It owns the road with the kind of superiority that only a V12 car can. But where the German cars did it with brutish force, the XJS wrapped the almighty V12 in graceful lines. The low-dipping hood and flying buttress rear just seem to be stately without ever going stale. And we love the little touches, like the classic leaper hood ornament, distinct 15-inch alloys, and tasteful chrome that help make the federal bumpers look so good. Plus, the burgundy pinstripe not only looks great against the creamy tan paint, but it also previews the leather interior. So while the V12 makes you love the drive, it's the total package that makes this a true European grand touring machine.

This car embodies what we love most about classic Jaguars. It's about being low-slung, luxurious, and styled truly uniquely. It's an era before too much technology got in the way of every car, and so you feel a true connection with the thin/grippy steering wheel, full Smiths gauges, and smooth yet authoritative V12. This XJS is a true grand touring experience that makes any journey - even just to the office - a little bit better. Call today!!!
