Lot #255853

This 1989 Jaguar XJ-S convertible was registered in New York, Pennsylvania, and Illinois before being acquired by the seller on BaT in July 2021, and it was subsequently brought to Ontario, Canada. Finished in red over black leather, the car is powered by a 5.3-liter V12 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. It also has a limited-slip differential, a power-operated black soft top, front fog lights, wire wheels, automatic climate control, cruise control, power-adjustable heated seats, and a factory cassette stereo. Work under current ownership is said to have included replacing the oil pressure sender, kickdown switch, air and fuel filters, and throttle shaft bushings as well as installing a replacement transmission mount. This XJ-S shows 29k miles and is offered in Canada with factory literature, a repair manual, a clean Carfax report, and Ontario registration in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in red with a power-retractable black convertible top. Additional exterior details include front fog lights, dual exhaust outlets, and chrome accents and side mirrors.

Wire-spoke 15″ wheels are wrapped in a mix of Pirelli P4000 tires with pre-2000 date codes as well as Goodyear Integrity tires with production date codes from 2013. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes.

The heated power-adjustable seats and the door panel inserts are upholstered in black leather, while burl wood veneers accent the dash, center console, and doors. Appointments include automatic climate control, cruise control, an onboard computer, Jaguar-branded door sill guards, and a factory cassette stereo. Photos show wear on the outer bolster of the driver’s seat as well as crazing on the center console trim.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 29k miles, approximately 500 of which were added under current ownership. The Carfax report lists a mileage inconsistency in an August 2024 entry, though it is noted as a potential clerical error.
