For Sale at H & H Auctions "Buxton Classic" sale in 2007. Lot Number 1 - 1986 Jaguar XJ-SC 3.6. Sold on July 25, 2007 for UKL 3,200 with unstated Mileage. 

Finished in Metallic Cobalt Blue with Grey leather upholstery, this particular example is variously described by the vendor as being in "good" (tyres), "all OK" (electrical equipment), "very good" (chassis, bodywork, paintwork) or "excellent" (engine, five-speed manual gearbox, interior trim) condition. Though, he notes that there are "some minor surface blemishes" to the alloy wheels. Entering the current family ownership on May 3rd 1989, 'D122 SHD' is stated to have had just two previous keepers and to have covered some 115,000 miles from new. Purchased for £21,000 (a brand new 3.6 Coupe was apparently £27,200 at the time but the Cabriolet was no longer available), the Jaguar boasts an impressive specification including: air conditioning, power steering, electric windows / mirrors / locks, alarm / immobiliser, radio / cassette, Jaguar winter overmats, colour-coordinated luggage, V12-type foglamps, fire extinguisher and a stainless steel exhaust. Used for a number of Continental tours over the last eighteen years, the Cabriolet has been regularly maintained by Meads of Burnham, Merritts Jaguar of Amersham and more recently Marcus Barclay of Gerrards Cross (independent marque specialist). Kept garaged, this pampered big cat is offered for sale with "complete original toolcase, owners handbook, Jaguar XJS Workshop manuals (4 volumes), 1986 sales brochure", MOT certificate valid until April 19th 2008 and road tax valid until April 30th 2008.
