1987 Jaguar XJSC V12
Specifications
Description
The XJ-S was Jag's most expensive car ever when it was launched!
It boasted all the right ingredients to make a great car. In its prime, the XJ-S was regarded as one of the world's greatest cars, thanks to the typical Jaguar blend of performance, comfort and refinement that decades on have hardly diminished.
ABOUT THIS CAR
- Two long term owners in New Zealand
- First registered in New Zealand in 1997.
- This is a very tidy example. Body seems clean of any rust and paint is very nice.
- Car runs and drives beautifully - one can tell its a low mileage vehicle.
- This is a front engine, rear drive grand tourer with the courtesy of a hefty 5.3L V12 producing 220kW of grunt.
- Interior - upholstery is like new. All carpets, door cards etc are original and in very good condition.
- Soft top in good condition and in keeping with the rest of the car.
- Some servicing history & maintenance records available and servicing is up to date.
- Inspections welcome.
The XJS is certainly no lightweight and is certainly a statement.
All the switch gear screams 1980's and the simple white on black dials are devoid of any fripperies or additives.
Ride comfort is perfect. In fact, this is one of the most comfortable classic cars around. Those leather seats provide ample support and you are left to slob out a bit with your arms out stretched. It is very much like sitting in a leather arm chair.
A pretty cool Jag for the price of a cake mixer. Brings more happiness than money in the bank or shares.
Car will be sold WOF'd and Registered, if sold in New Zealand.
TRANSPORT / WORLDWIDE SHIPPING CAN BE FACILITATED ON THIS VEHICLE ON BUYER'S BEHALF AT BUYERS COST.
Viewing is BY PRIOR APPOINTMENT only.

NOTIFICATION AS TO NATURE OF GOODS IN TERMS OF THE CONSUMER GUARANTEES ACT 1993
Waimak Classic Cars Ltd is a New Zealand registered company and accepts that the vehicle being sold must be of “acceptable quality” in terms of section 7 of the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (the Act) having regard to “the nature of the goods”.
Waimak Classic Cars is not aware of any specific defects with the vehicle, however (a) such a vehicle being a classic vehicle may have mechanical breakdowns, electrical failures at inconvenient times and maintenance costs being part of and parcel of ownership of a classic vehicle; (b) reliability is a combination of the particular nature of the classic vehicle, how it is being driven, how it has been maintained, and to a certain extent luck; (c) because of the age of the vehicle, and its propensity to rust, it is likely that the vehicle would have been fully or partially restored, or at least repainted at some point in its life, maybe even more than once. Waimak Classic Cars does not know, and cannot give advice on how good any restoration work on the vehicle had been.
The Purchaser acknowledges that the vehicle is being sold as a classic car; that in terms of the Act and the nature of the goods, the vehicle is an old car, bike or boat, that may have visual and hidden faults, unlike a new motor vehicle.
The Purchaser is encouraged to personally fully inspect the vehicle and also to have the vehicle inspected, and fully assessed by an experienced, independent, specialist garage - before committing to purchase. While the Purchaser is entitled to rely on statements given by Waimak Classic Cars as being correct, where goods such as vehicles are concerned, with so many moving parts and rust being an issue with older vehicles; a Purchaser who chooses not to seek independent professional assistance when assessing the quality of what they propose to buy is considered as buying at their own risk, and if the vehicle then turns out to be of less than the represented quality, or not up to the Purchaser's expectation, or in the Purchaser opinion not fit for purpose; then the Purchaser is considered to have contributed to their own loss and should not expect any refunds or betterment from Waimak Classic Cars.
The Purchaser acknowledges that they have read and fully understand this notification and the nature of a car which is many years old.
