THE XJ12

The original XJ12 bowed out in Pininfarina-styled Series III guise in 1992 to be replaced for the following year by a 12-cylinder version of the restyled XJ40 called, appropriately enough, 'XJ12'. The alloy V12 engine now displaced 6.0 liters and produced over 300bhp, which was enough to make Jaguar's flagship a 150mph car. The XJ12 in this (XJ81) form did not last long, fewer than 200 being completed before the entire range was superseded by the restyled 'X300' series in September 1994.

THE MOTORCAR OFFERED

The beautifully presented Jaguar laid before you has had the prime distinction of remaining under the care of just a single owner from new. Finished in the stately combination of Flemenco Red over a crème leather interior, both show to be as near to flawless as one can get. The immaculate preservation of the large saloon can be attributed both to the limited mileage accrued over the past 25 years at just around 19,000 miles and the routine care conducted by the owner. A file available to those interested cleanly lays out the servicing carried out on the car and should serve as a peace of mind to the drivability of the vehicle. Most recently, the coolant system received a test in addition to several new filters being installed throughout the car. Further, the right rear shock was the recipient of a new bushing and lastly, the rear brake calipers were overhauled.

Indubitably a car of unquestionable caliber, this Jaguar is likely to be the lowest mileage and finest example in existence. You may pose a noble attempt to search and scour the far spans of our globe and will likely never cross this XJ12's equal. Fear not, however, as this fine English motor is available to those willing and able.
