Introduction

Paul Wright

Professional Consigner

What better treat for the summer than a luxury V12 XJS to blow the winter blues away?

Considered one of the best-looking and most desirable XJS models ever produced, the convertible was a true open-top luxury car. It features an electric hood mechanism, a strengthened front section, and a reinforced subframe. Just ~7,420 of the 150mph V12 models were built and, with the brand’s marked improvements in build quality and engineering, it quickly became a beloved classic.

This lovely 1991 Jaguar XJS is offered in the stunning Regency Red Metallic, with an equally beautiful Magnolia leather interior - it's ready to be enjoyed this summer!

Graham will be on hand to answer any questions in the comments below.

This listing was written from information supplied by Paul after meeting Graham the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

EXTERIOR VIDEO

Exterior

The sleek, smooth lines of the XJS just scream out "British Classic".

Wheels and Tyres

Fitted with the original wheels, which are in superb condition having been refurbished in 2015. The tyres are a matching set that have covered just a few hundred miles.

Please take time to review the photos and videos for a detailed view of the exterior, wheels and tyres so you can make your own assessment of their condition. Tyres are a key safety item, and you should consider replacing any that are cracked, perished, unevenly worn or over 10 years old.

Bodywork

Walking around the Jaguar, the panel gaps appear to be equal. There are a couple of very, very minor dings that could easily be removed by a paintless dent removal specialist.

We’ve highlighted our observations in more detail through our high-resolution images and videos, so please take time to look through all the media files for a detailed view of what’s on offer and to assess the condition of the car for yourselves.

Paint

Finished in the lovely Regency Red Metallic, the paintwork presents very well. We would say this is largely original, with just the odd small area having been touched up over the years. There are a couple of minor chips, consistent with the age and mileage.

Graham has recently spent £450 to have the car polished and ceramic-coated to help protect it and, of course, show it off at its best.

The images are taken from a few different angles to show off the car as you would see it if you were standing there yourself. Please take the time to fully assess these high-resolution images and videos of the car to make up your own mind about the condition of the paint.

Glass and Trim

All the windows look to be in good order, with no noticeable chips or scratches.

The chrome work is in excellent condition, with no significant signs of age or excessive tarnish.

The fabric roof is in excellent condition and works correctly, lowering and raising in the designated time. There is also a tonneau cover which fits snugly over the roof.

INTERIOR VIDEO

Interior

Luxurious leather and walnut are a match made in heaven for the classic Jaguar.

Seats and Carpets

The magnolia leather complements the exterior perfectly and is in excellent condition. There is some minor colour wear to the driver’s side bolster, but this is minimal for the age and mileage.

The matching magnolia carpets are in good condition throughout and have been protected with a set of fitted mats, which are also in good condition.

Inside the boot, the spare wheel, jack, and original tool kit are in place.

Dashboard

The dashboard is free from any noticeable scuffs or damage. Finished with a burr walnut fascia, which has some light lacquer crazing in places - typical to see on vehicles of this age.

The instruments are working correctly, and the odometer shows ~100,835 miles have been enjoyed.

Steering Wheel / Gear Stick

The original steering wheel remains in place and is in good condition, with only a light amount of age showing.

The gear lever is also in good order, with minimal wear.

'ON THE ROAD' VIDEO

Mechanics

It purrs like a kitten and roars like a lion when pushed.

Engine and Gearbox

The V12 fires up without hesitation and idles smoothly, with no reported issues. This was confirmed after Graham had a pleasurable drive for two and a half hours to see us for the shoot.

Fitted with an automatic gearbox, the Jaguar pulls well and enjoys an effortless gear change as it works its way through the range.

Suspension and Brakes

On the road, the XJS soaks up the road just as Jaguar intended, and no knocks or bangs were heard coming from the suspension.

The brakes operate as expected, bringing the car to a stop with no issues reported. There did sound like one rear brake was binding a little, which Graham is going to get rectified before the auction ends.

The Drive

Are you looking for a relaxed grand touring driving experience? Look no further than the V12 XJS…delivering power in a smooth, quiet and effortless surge. When paired with a soft, comfortable ride - further enhanced by the luxurious leather and walnut interior and electric roof - this car feels incredible.

Electrics and Other

Like stepping back in time, all of the switchgear appears to be in original condition, with only light signs of age on the lettering on switches for the windows that have seen more use.

The original Jaguar radio cassette head unit is in place.

History and Paperwork

Dating back several years, the history file is consistent with the age and mileage of the car.

Throughout the life of this Jaguar, the MOT history shows that there have been several years where the car has seen very little or no use at all. This all appears to be consistent with the large collection of invoices and MOT certificates, which are shown in the History and Documents section.

The current MOT is valid until 21.08.2026.

The V12 engine is certainly the one to have in an XJS. Super smooth power delivery and a luxurious interior, all wrapped up in a sleek-looking body that continues to turn heads - what better way to cruise into spring?

We’ve carried out our usual seller checks, including verifying photo ID, the V5C, and an HPI check. This confirms the car has not been stolen, written off, or does not have any outstanding finance. Please note: this check does not include mileage verification.

We’ve summarised the car based on the seller’s information above. As always, we go to great lengths to photograph and film the car in high-resolution detail so you can make your own informed assessment from the comfort of your sofa. So grab a cuppa, sit back, and enjoy reviewing everything in this listing.

Viewings are welcome for all our listings. Please get in touch to arrange a time – we just need to speak with you first and receive valid photo ID before confirming.

If you have any questions, no matter how small, please ask the seller in the comments section below before placing your bids, as bids cannot be retracted and form a binding contract if you win, just like in a traditional auction.
