This Jaguar XJR-S is a two-owner example of the rare and compelling V12 coupe.

It is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.3-litre V12, producing around 295bhp which is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission.

The odometer indicates 12,853 miles, which the seller believes to be genuine.

Equipment and features

From 1988, Jaguar Sport, the jointly operated venture between Jaguar and Tom Walkinshaw Racing, produced the special XJR-S variant based on the 5.3-litre V12 model. These cars featured a distinctive body kit, bespoke alloy wheels, revised suspension, and sharper handling characteristics than the standard model.

This example is finished in an attractive Arctic Blue hue over a Champagne hide interior featuring elegant wood inlays, a black upper dashboard, and black piping.

It rides on 15-inch JaguarSport alloy wheels, fitted with Pirelli P600 tyres.

Equipment includes a heated rear screen, a Jaguar-branded cassette player, electrically adjustable heated seats, and electric windows.

Accompanying the sale is the V5C, owner's handbooks, MOT certificates, and a single key.

Condition

The most recent MOT test took place on 24 April 2026 at 12,848 miles, resulting in a first-time pass with no advisories.

Service history

The seller states that the latest service was carried out during March 2019 at 12,709 miles by Horner & Hudsons Limited.

Prior to this, the seller notes the car was serviced in November 2015 at 11,980 miles, and in August 2015 at 12,702 miles.
