1980 XJS Pre HE - Exceptional Condition For Sale

This XJS is in stunning condition inside and out. It was restored in 1995 with a bare metal respray (Photos available) and is in great all round condition with only 94, 500 miles on the clock, backed up by a huge number of previous MOT certificates and tax discs.

The bumpers were replaced when it was restored with later ones with chrome inserts and the car has also been fitted with a set of 5 lattice alloys which are in as new condition.

I have a set of 4 original Kent alloys which are freshly refurbished and have not yet been fitted to the car (as I prefer the lattice alloys). These will come with the car at asking price.

I also have a set of original black bumpers which will come with the car too. The only part I dont have is an original rear bumper beam.

I purchased the car in September 2012

Everything works as it should and the panels are all straight with no dents or scratches. The interior is in great condition too with no tears or excessive wear. It even still has the original steering wheel.

It starts on the button, has smooth gear changes and of course drinks fuel like a tanker, but this is offset by the looks you get and the huge amount of fun it is to drive.

Please come and have a look as photographs always make cars look shiny (although it is). But seriously, if you are looking for straight Pre HE XJS then this is likely to be one of the best and so if this is what floats your boat then come and see its condition for yourself.

I have a video on youtube too:
Since I can't add a link just search "Jaguar XJS by Jerry".
