1989 JAGUAR XJR-S 6.0 Auto (Chassis Number One)

This is the first XJR-S 6.0 V12 chassis to appear. The British Racing Green car was registered in May 1989 and has an odometer reading of 92,851 miles. There is no current MoT and no note of the car having had one since online  records began in 2005; it is believed to have been stored for around 20 years. The car comes with its current and some past V5Cs and the original book pack with owner's handbook, supplement, sound system instructions, pre-delivery inspection card, forecourt data card and dealership directory. The service book spans May 1990 (15,101 miles) to June 2000 (89,276 miles) plus a print-out of all work done by Guy Salmon Jaguar and Land Rover between 1990 and 1999. There's are a handful of bills plus a single MoT certificate from April 1999. There are references to a Heritage Certificate plus a letter from Jaguar Heritage confirming the car is chassis number one of its type; however, these weren't in the history folder at the time of checking. But there is a letter from the Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club confirming it as a TWR factory XJR-S and that photos exist of it being tested at Silverstone by Tom Walkinshaw.
