Auction description:
Lot number 71
Hammer value N/S
Description Jaguar XJS V12 HE
Registration H194 OGR
Year 1990
Colour Blue
Engine size 5,293 cc
Chassis No. SAJJNAEW3BB170866
Engine No. 8S075644SB

First registered in October 1990, this particular Coupe has covered a warranted 24,000 miles from new backed up by a full Reg Vardy service history with nine stamps in the service book to date. This gives an average service interval of 2,700 miles, the last service being carried out less than 700 miles ago. The car had a documented speedo change at 10,930 miles and is now showing 12,440 on the clock.

Needless to say the car is said to be in excellent condition, both mechanically and cosmetically, with a lovely magnolia hide interior. Its sporting good looks are enhanced by a TWR bodykit and a twin-headlamp conversion. With an MOT until October 2008 and still apparently in the prime of its life, this big cat looks excellent value at the guide price suggested today.

Sat 30th & Sun 31st August

1990 JAGUAR XJ-S 5.3 HE AUTO

Estimate:  £5,000 - £6,000

MoT date: 17/06/2026

Chassis number: SAJJNAEW3BB170866

5343cc. This low-mileage V12 Jaguar XJ-S 5.3 HE Coupe was first supplied by Reg Vardy in Tyne & Wear, and registered on 1st October 1990. Documents show that the speedometer was changed in 1992, so the true mileage is just 32,297 miles rather than the indicated 21,367. The car has a long MoT to 17th June next year, and we're told it has recently received a service, including a new battery and spark plugs.

Despite the low mileage, the service book contains an impressive 12 stamps up to 14,296 miles in 2013. A handwritten note records that the engine was recommissioned in 2009 at a cost of £1373, after spending nine years in dry storage.

The Jaguar comes with old MoTs, and a good collection of invoices. Also included are a spare key, owner's manual and an issue of Car magazine from February 1988.

The air conditioning is reportedly not working. V5C to follow.
