Lot number 152
Sale Price £7,700
Make & Model Jaguar XJR-S
Registration G141 VTR
Year 1989
Colour Grey
Engine Size 5,345 cc
Chassis No. SAJJSAEW3BB160802
Engine No. 8S067397SA

This smart 1989 XJR-S has had just three owners from new and has been in the current ownership for 23 years. It is showing just under 95,000 miles on the clock and comes with an excellent service history comprising no fewer than 22 stamps in the book plus many additional invoices and 24 old MOTs to substantiate the mileage.

Recent maintenance includes 12 new plugs and replacement injector resistor pack. The alternator was refurbished in 2017 and a replacement fuel tank fitted in 2012. It has an MOT until October 2018 with just one advisory for a minor leak of exhaust gases. Also present are the original handbooks in their leather wallet and an additional second wallet with further manuals.

A rare car in nice, usable condition from a long term, fastidious owner, this powerfully understated XJS really stands out from the crowd.
