On its introduction in 1983 the Jaguar XJ-S 3.6 coupe was similar to the XJS HE it replaced, but with refinements that brought the model bang up to date. Its 3,590cc straight-six AJ6 engine with digital fuel injection produced 225bhp, and the driver now benefitted from A/C, power steering, central locking and LSD as standard. The result was a confident sporting coupe that maintained Jaguar's reputation for building powerful and stylish cars.
In 1987, the model was updated. A bolder twin coachline, sports seats and updated alloys were added, and an optional four-speed automatic offered, as specified on this 1987 example in maroon with tan leather interior and a new walnut dash. Complete with new MOT and Heritage Certificate, the history shows a comprehensive restoration in 2015 since when it has covered just 768 miles. Now presenting in very good condition, well-maintained examples of this increasingly popular classic are rare.
