This 1989 Jaguar XJS 3.6 Automatic is a well-looked-after and highly presentable example of Jaguar's distinguished grand tourer. Showing just 72,040 miles, it has clearly been cared for throughout its life and remains in excellent overall condition.

The paintwork retains a deep, even shine, complemented by straight and tidy stainless-steel trim and brightwork. The interior is very clean and well-kept, with tidy carpets and original features throughout, reflecting careful ownership. The car presents extremely well, with only a few age-related minor imperfections consistent with its age and originality.

Under the bonnet, the 3.6-litre AJ6 straight-six engine runs smoothly and quietly, paired with a refined automatic gearbox that shifts cleanly. On the road, it drives just as an XJS should — comfortable, composed, and effortless, a classic grand tourer that still delivers the signature Jaguar experience.

This example retains its original Jaguar alloy rims, all in excellent condition, plus a matching spare. Supplied with two keys, the V5 registration document, and a new MOT valid until 18 September 2026, this XJS is ready to be enjoyed immediately.

Model History

Launched in 1975 as the successor to the E-Type, the Jaguar XJS redefined the luxury sports coupe. By the late 1980s, the introduction of the 3.6-litre AJ6 engine provided an ideal balance of smooth power and improved efficiency. With its long bonnet, elegant proportions, and refined ride, the XJS became synonymous with British grand touring luxury.

The model's combination of style, performance, and comfort made it a favourite among discerning drivers of the era — and it remains a sought-after modern classic today.
