Lot 71995 Jaguar XJS Celebration

• Desirable Celebration model
• Supplied with Jaguar heritage certificate

1975 saw the launch of the Jaguar XJS. In a year that Margaret Thatcher was made the leader of the Conservative Party and petrol was 70 pence per gallon, the new grand tourer from Jaguar was introduced as the replacement for the iconic E-Type. During an astonishing build run of 21 years, 115,413 units were produced by the Coventry manufacturer at their world-famous Browns Lane factory. The final, more aerodynamic version of the XJS was introduced in 1991. At the same time, the car benefitted from a revision to the rear brakes; they were now fitted with outboard rear disc brakes, instead of the more complicated inboard items on previous models. With a more efficient engine and subtle design changes, this version was available until production ceased. In 1995, the last full year of production, the ‘Celebration’ edition was produced to commemorate Jaguar’s 60th year.

This Jaguar 4.0 litre six cylinder later XJS Celebration presented in White with Tan leather trim was privately imported to the UK from Florida in September 2021. Originally registered in 1995 this desirable model has been garaged when not in use since its arrival in the UK and is described by our vendor as in excellent structural and cosmetic condition having benefitted from the dry climate for 26 years of its life. Supplied with a Jaguar heritage certificate…… Import documents, book pack and some sundry invoices this left hand drive example would be perfect for a trip onto the continent or simply as a more cost effective entry into the desirable Celebration XJS ownership. Consigned by Mathew Priddy.

Collection from Northhampton Northhamptonshire.
