Don't hesitate to call or email if you have any questions! 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 Convertible V12 Top of the line model! One of the Final Years of this Classic Body Style! Only 113,175 Miles! Incredible Color Combination! This is the car you have always dreamed of owning! A wonderful opportunity! Mechanic's Special Also needs cosmetic work Here is a very rare chance go get an affordable example of one of the best cars Jaguar ever made! Up for auction is a 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 V12 Convertible! This 6.0 liter V12 engine is regarded by most Jagaur enthusiasts as the best engine ever placed in the XJS! You'll really fall in love with this 6.0 liter engine! Although the car currently runs and drives fine, the car has reached a point in its life where it will need some investment to continue impressing onlookers for many years to come. The paint on the outside has either oxidized or cracked from substandard previous work and will need to be completely repainted. The interior looks to have held up well but will need some light attention in a few areas I have photographed below. Mechanically, the car will need some attention that is very common for a car of this age and mileage. The car has a few leaks from the bottom as many of these V12s commonly have and will need some new seals around the engine area. The front and rear suspension is worn and will need some parts replaced to tighten it up. The a/c is currently not blowing cold. And finally the transmission takes about 3-4 seconds to shift into drive when you move the shifter to the drive position. Something will need to be adjusted to make it respond quicker. Once in gear the transmission works perfectly it just takes a little longer than normal to transition into drive. This is a very hard to find car and is certainly worth the investment, but it's not one i'm prepared to do myself. Once the car gets the cosmetic and mechanical attention it deserves, the car will be impressing once again for many years to come! Here for the first time on ebay is a rare opportunity to purchase one of the most exclisive, and most rare examples of the XJS convertible series. The 1994 Model XJS V12 2+2 Convertible. The top of the line V12 version offers you everything the six cylinder models had but more of it. A larger V12 engine, enhanced appearance, special wheels, a factory rear spoiler, extra gadgets inside the car, enhanced interior appearance, and more. This car was made to look much nicer than the lower end models, and leave anyone that looked at the car without a doubt in your mind that you got the best version of this car that money could buy. What makes the car even more exclusive is the rareity of this model. Since the debut of the 6-cylinder engine in these cars in 1993, almost all the cars sold in the United States were the 6-cylinder version. In fact, most people believe that there were no V12 verions sold after 1992 as you never see one that's newer than a 1992 with a V12 engine! That's because they are extremely rare! The main reason for the large increase in 6-cylinder model sales was simply the price difference. The 6-cylinder model costing $61,550 when new which several company executives, doctors and other rich people can afford readily. The 12 cylinder model cost $82,550 when new which was $21,000 more than the six cylinder model. Of course the $82,550 was the base price for the model, not including extra fees, taxes, and other charges the dealer could come up with. By the time you are done you were looking at over $90,000 to acquire this car new which was out of the reach even for most well-off folks. The ones who could afford the $90,000 had a hard time justifying spending the extra $20,000 for a car which has the same basic looks as the lower end model. The reslult, very low sales for the V12 model. Although we do not have a production number for the 1994 V12 XJS convertibles we are certain that it was not many as you will have a very hard time finding one of these for sale anywhere! The collector's value of this car is enormous. This Jaguar XJS convertible has proven itself an instant classic, and you'll enjoy pulling up and making an impression with this car. Most car collectors have been saying that this car will become one of the hottest collectible cars to own. I personally have never seen a car with a personality that even comes close to this car's. Every time I have parked this car I have found myself doing one thing over and over again. Once i've walked about 20 or 30 feet i'll turn around and take a second look at the car and marvel at how beautiful it is. Then I remember that the car is mine! It's a great feeling to have over and over again, and with this car you can have that! This car proclaims status and class anywhere it is driven. There aren't many 20 year old cars that you can still drive around this day and still make an impression. This car has a timeless body style which will always look new and fresh no matter where automotive design decides to go in the future. I don't believe that the newer XK8 which was supposed to be this car's successor has been able to attain the same status and personality that this XJS accomplished and still has even after 20 years on the road! With all that said, we are prepared to actually sell you this wonderful car. Our reserve isn't outrageous, and we do anticipate it being met well before the end of the auction. We will be selling the car to the highest bidder! This may be your last chance to get a car like this in this kind of condition. These cars are very hard to find these days. Most of the people that are buying these cars these days are buying them with the intention of being the car's last owner. They won't let them go for anything! I believe that you will never again get the opportunity to purchase a 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 V12 Convertible! These high quality, non smoker cars are becoming very hard to find in any condition. We look every day to find cars like this, but there are simply none available. Bid to win! Don't miss your opportunity to own this beautiful car! This may be your last chance to find one in this kind of shape! This car is truly a beautiful Jaguar! You will not be disappointed! Don't settle for second best! Get the car you have always dreamed of owning! Don't let this wonderful opportunity pass you by! If you have any questions don't hesitate to give us a call at 512-553-2249 The car still impresses even in its present condition! It's still very presentable up here! The headlight lenses appear to have been removed or replaced with plastic. The headlight glass would need to be replaced to give the car its original look. The driver's side as well. The maroon is a real nice color for this car! The car still shows nicely! Even in its current state you can still see how beautiful this car's design is. The tires still have some good tread. Most of the wheels look good but the driver front wheel looks to have hit a curb and bent the wheel a bit. That one will need a repair. The paint up here is getting weak as you can see. The clear coat has finally given way after 20 years. The car will need to be repainted. In addition to the clear coat there are other chips and nicks on the paint that a repaint would fix. New paint would make this car look incredible! The car's top has held up well! The top is in good shape! Notice that spoiler! No rips or tears in the top! The light colored fabric is a little dirty but should clean up nicely! The trunk has held up well! It looks great! Spare tire is still intact! Tool kit as well! The car still has the 6-disc factory CD changer even though the stereo has been changed out. The driver's door looks great! Fully adjustable power seats! The interior still looks great! Driver's seat has only light wear as you can see. Passenger's door also looks great! Power adjustable seats for the passenger as well! Passenger's side looks even nicer! The leather has held up well. It still looks good! Looks like the passenger's seat has rarely had someone in it. It really is nice! The rear seats show virtually no signs of use. Of course you'd expect that with the lack of legroom this car has, but it's a 2+2 nevertheless! The car has a Clarion Auto PC stereo system we can't get to work but the equipment back here appears to be tied to that system. I didn't want to remove it because i've never seen a stereo like that before but it apepars to be easily removable if you wish. The car still looks great as you can see! The passenger's side looks great! The onboard computer works great! The woodgrain still looks good but does have some cracks. These switches work great but don't appear all that nice. I have absolutely no idea what this switch does. The leather cover back here will need to be reaplced. The top has rubbed against it. Both sides. Driver's sunvisor work's great. Passenger's side sunvisor is included but the mount is broken. The cluster works great. The oil sending unit may be bad as the oil pressure reading fluxulates all over the place which is a common issue with these cars. The engine still shows nicely and runs well! This is the real deal! The 6.0 liter v12! It still looks good under there. These Jaguar XJS V12s were very hard to come by! What a great opportunity!
