This 1988 Jaguar XJSC was purchased new by the seller in California and is finished in Talisman Silver Metallic with blue fabric-covered top panels over a blue leather interior. The car is powered by a 5.3-liter V12 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, and equipped with blue multi-piece removable roof, chrome wheels, fog lamps, heated seats, cruise control, automatic climate control, and a factory cassette stereo. This XJ-SC shows just over 63k miles and is offered with manufacturer’s literature, service records, a clean Carfax report, and clean California title in the seller’s name.

The body is finished in Talisman Silver Metallic with a contrasting pinstripe alone the sides. The removable roof is comprised of dual panels up top, while aft of the roll bar an optional hardtop with a heated rear window is fitted. A folding fabric panel can also be raised to cover to rear of the cabin if the hardtop is not fitted to the car. Chrome 15″ wheels wear older Pirelli P4000 Super Touring tires that are in need of replacement due to age.

The cabin is trimmed in blue leather with gray carpets and tan headlining on the removable roof sections, while the dash, center console, and door panels are accented with wood veneer. Amenities include cruise control, motorized seat belts, heated seats, automatic climate control, and a factory cassette stereo. The seller notes the air conditioning operates intermittently.

Instrumentation consists of a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer along with vertical gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and voltage. The six-digit odometer shows just over 63k miles, all of which have been added during current ownership.

The 5.3-liter HE V12 is equipped with electronic fuel injection and was factory-rated at 262 horsepower with 290 lb-ft of torque. A synthetic oil change was last carried out by Jaguar Performance Center of Los Gatos, California, in June 2018.

A TH-400 three-speed automatic transmission delivers power to the rear wheels.

Manufacturer’s literature is included the sale. Service records will also accompany the car.

The June 2020 Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists history in California between August 1991 and June 2018. An emissions test was passed in July 2020.
