This very tidy-looking XJ-SC hails from 1987 and sports Metallic Gold bodywork teamed with Light Brown leather upholstery. It has apparently been the subject of much work in recent times and the vendor now feels its bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, AJ6 six-cylinder engine and five-speed manual gearbox are all in "very good" order and is selling the Jaguar complete with the cherished registration 'FJI 787' and an MOT valid until August 2013.
