Lot #126591

This 1996 Jaguar XJS 2+2 Celebration Edition convertible spent time in Michigan, Florida, and New Jersey before the seller’s acquisition on BaT in June 2020. It is powered by a 4.0-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed automatic transmission and is finished in black over Charcoal leather. The car is equipped with a limited-slip differential, a power-retractable black soft top, 16″ alloy wheels, heated power-adjustable front sport seats, a CD changer, cruise control, and automatic climate control. Service under current ownership is said to have included replacing the radiator, starter, and steering rack. This XJS convertible is now offered at no reserve with the owner’s manual, a Carfax report, and a New Jersey title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in black and is noted to have been repainted under previous ownership. Exterior details include a power-retractable black soft top as well as a Jaguar leaper hood ornament, dual exhaust outlets, and a telescoping antenna. The lower front fascia is blemished.

The 16″ five-spoke alloy wheels wear 225/60 Continental TrueContact Tour tires that were reportedly mounted in 2020. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes. The seller states the brakes and shocks were replaced in 2020 and the steering rack was replaced in 2023.

The cabin features heated power-adjustable front sport seats and two rear bucket seats upholstered in Charcoal leather. Amenities include an Alpine CD changer, cruise control, and automatic climate control. An inoperative left-center air vent is noted.

The four-spoke leather- and wood-rimmed steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer as well as gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 48k miles, approximately 2k of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown. The Carfax report lists mileage inconsistencies in July 1998 and May 2000 in addition to multiple “Not Actual Mileage” title issuances beginning in April 1998. The check engine warning light is illuminated.

The 4.0-liter inline-six was factory rated at 237 horsepower and 282 lb-ft of torque. The seller notes the radiator was replaced in 2020 and the starter was replaced in 2023.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. Corrosion is present on underside components.
