    Current Owner Melbourne, Australia. Previously found For Sale April 08, 2016 on Robert Hughes Automobiles website UK. Asking UKL 17,500 with 35,000 miles. 

    Jaguar XJS V-12 HE Cabriolet 1986, £ 17, 500. All XJS models are receiving recognition as relatively undervalued classics and a hardening of values is underway. However the cars still seem good value, even a super low mileage rarity such as this. Being the Cabriolet, it was the first to differ from the coupe model which had been running for almost a decade at the time of its launch. The advantages of the Cabriolet are clear because they offer a refined drive with fixed ‘targa’ style panels in place, and the joy of a convertible with them removed. With or without the roof, this XJS feels good and looks exotic. The experience could only be let down by buying a rogue example, and this is certainly not one of those. In fact the same gentleman has owned this car since brand new. Initially his personal company car, it was then kept purely for pleasure from 1995 and he held on to his beloved Jaguar way longer than envisaged. Approaching thirty years in the same ownership, we purchased the car directly from the gentleman and it comes with a huge file of service history and original sales brochures going back to day one which confirms the mileage of 35,000 since new. This car has never been damaged or restored inside or out as verified by the owner in writing, so the provenance could hardly be more reassuring. Since purchase we have checked with Jaguar that the two important factory recalls from the 1980’s were indeed carried out.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
