About this Jaguar XJS

In May 1995 the final specification changes were made to the XJS and the car was referred to as the 'Celebration model' to celebrate the 60th year of Jaguar Cars.

Cars built from Chassis No: 221855  from May 1995 to the end of production are called the "Celebration" model and it featured the later Jaguar AJ16 4.0 litre Aluminium Engine and later cars also had the Jaguar XK8 Automatic Transmission fitted. These special models could be recognised externally by their chromed side view mirrors and headlight border strip, either Aerosport Alloy Wheels or optional 5-spoke Chrome Alloy Wheels, a steering wheel with wood sections top and bottom separated by leather on the sides plus air bag, a wooden gear selector lever, a black hand brake lever with full leather cover, a Jaguar "leaper" embossed into the upper part of the leather seat backs, and contrasting piping around the seats and boot cover. 

This stunning LHD Jaguar XJS 4.0 Celebration - VIN No: SAJNX2747TC225333 and Engine No: 9LPFLB0153981 was imported from California last summer and is finished in gleaming Black with a Doeskin 'Coffee' leather interior, Beige carpets, Black Mohair Soft Top, Leather hood cover in Beige, Jaguar Stereo/Radio Cassette player, Air Conditioning, Electric Heated Seats and Windows, Electric Mirrors, Electric Roof, Heated Glass rear window, Driver & Passenger Air Bags, 4.0 Litre 6 cylinder Engine, Automatic Transmission, Cruise Control, Power Steering, and it is sitting on a set of the optional 16" 5 Spoke Chrome Alloy Wheels. The car did have a re-trim of the leather interior in 2010 in the USA and as a result it does not retain the ‘Leapers’ embossed into the seats, but it is a stunning interior.

It has covered a genuine 76,800 miles from new and has a clean CARFAX report which confirms its ownership history, servicing records from new and that it has no history of any accident damage during its life + there are invoices for works carried out from 1997 to date plus its original Jaguar Cars Pre-Delivery Inspection Report dated 14th February 1996 and first registered to a Karen Shott of Bluefield in Virginia.

We have now registered the car here in the UK and it has been issued with the age-related number plate N994 WUP. This car really is in exceptional condition throughout (including underneath) and it does drive beautifully indeed. These 'Celebration' models from the last year of production of the classic XJS are becoming increasingly desirable and collectible and should be a sure-fire classic car investment for the Jaguar enthusiast or car collector.
