Introduced as the successor to the legendary E-Type, the XJS brought Jaguar into a new generation, combining long-distance touring ability with unmistakable British styling and exceptional refinement. The introduction of the V12 Convertible added an extra dimension to the XJS, offering effortless performance from its smooth 5.3-litre twelve-cylinder engine combined with the pleasure of open-top motoring.This particular Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible was first registered on 13 January 1993 and was purchased in the Netherlands in January of that year. Immediately after its purchase, the car was registered in Belgium before subsequently receiving Spanish registration in 1999.Remarkably, the Jaguar is still owned by its first and only owner. She has kept the XJS for an impressive 33 years, making the continuity of ownership one of the car’s most notable features. During all these years, the Jaguar has primarily been used for private purposes, including holidays and leisurely trips.The car has spent the majority of its life in and around Marbella in southern Spain. As a result, the XJS has benefited from the favourable climate of the region and is described as being rust-free. Throughout its Spanish ownership, the Jaguar has been maintained by professional garages in Marbella.Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the Grey Metallic paintwork is still completely original after 33 years. The car has therefore never undergone a repaint and retains its original factory finish, adding considerably to its authenticity and provenance.Finished in Grey Metallic with a Doeskin interior, the colour combination gives the XJS an elegant and understated appearance, perfectly complementing the car’s long, flowing lines and luxurious character. The car is powered by Jaguar’s 5.3-litre V12 engine producing 276 bhp and is coupled to an automatic transmission, making it an effortless and refined Grand Tourer.With 111,886 kilometres recorded, the XJS has enjoyed a life of private use rather than intensive driving. Its exceptional ownership history, with the same first owner for more than three decades, combined with its original paintwork, adds a particularly personal and authentic dimension to the car’s provenance.The Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible represents the classic Jaguar philosophy at its most relaxed: graceful styling, a beautifully appointed interior, twelve-cylinder refinement and effortless open-top touring. Combined with its 33 years of single ownership, Spanish history, rust-free condition and remarkably preserved original paintwork, this example offers a particularly appealing opportunity to acquire an authentic and well-preserved XJS V12 Convertible.
