Launched in 1975, the XJ-S could only cheat time for so long and in 1991 parent company Ford thoroughly reworked the luxury grand tourer at a cost of £50 million. With its sheet metal incorporating some forty percent new panels, the rejuvenated model range sported a revised grille, headlamps, taillights, bumpers and rear wings. While its cabin gained a new walnut trim fascia and improved sports seats. Powered by either a punchy straight-six (3980cc) or soporific V12 (5343cc) engine, the latter SOHC unit was quoted as developing some 280bhp and 306lbft of torque. Featuring smooth shifting automatic transmission as standard, the 5.3 litre XJS was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds and 150mph. Yet for all its performance capability, the Jaguar proved a refined and relaxing drive.
Supplied new by Harvey Hudson & Co Ltd of Woodford, ‘K792 NML’ is warranted to have covered some 39,000 miles from new. Serviced at 834, 1,437, 2,361, 3,434, 4,171, 5,984, 7,860, 9,633, 11,318, 18,598, 26,518 and 30,849 miles prior to being acquired by its current registered keeper in May 2003, the Jaguar’s accompanying service book carries two further stamps at 35,553 and 38,139 miles. Taken off the road approximately fourteen years ago, this appealing low mileage V12 XJS has recently been recommissioned and will be presented for sale with a fresh MOT certificate.
