Registered in May 1988, this Old English White Jaguar XJ-SC Auto Cabriolet is in excellent original condition inside and out, free from any corrosion and drives very well. Now a rare model, it is believed to be one of the last 10 right-hand drive cars built, and is fitted with a period TWR body kit, wheels and quad headlamps. The interior is trimmed in soft blue leather with optional rear seats. It has an MoT through to July 2025 and is showing 33,194 miles, with three owners overall recorded by its V5C. The registration number ‘C5 XJS’ is a very appropriate one for this model.

The mileage is confirmed by the large history file; the vehicle was dry-stored in 2003 at 30,423 miles and was recommissioned after 11 years, but has seen little use since then. The car comes with its tonneau cover, tool kit, roof panel bags and a fitted car cover.   

Paperwork with the Jaguar includes its V5C, MoT certificates back to 1990 (when the mileage was 012149), instructions on how to drop the roof, the owner's handbook, and copies of past V5Cs plus its Northern Ireland logbook. There also a large stack of invoices testifying to much care and attention over the years, plus notes on the car's history pieced together over the years.
