Auction description:

9th Oct, 2024 Imperial War Museum | Duxford, Cambridgeshire

1992 Jaguar XJS 4.0 Litre Convertible

Fastidiously maintained, facelift example

Estimate £13,000 - £16,000

Registration No: K527 XFK

Chassis No: BSAJJNADD3EK184641

MOT: September 2025

Acquired by its last registered keeper in 2001

Extensive service history and seemingly maintained on a 'money no object' basis

An usually smart example

It is perhaps appropriate that ‘K527 XFK’ was once the property of a Birmingham-based jewellery manufacturer. Decidedly smart, the Jaguar has seemingly been treasured like a gem by its previous custodians. Registered to a Welsh businessman since 2001, he initially entrusted the XJS’s maintenance to Paramount Jaguar of Swansea before engaging the services of the region’s ‘leading independent Jaguar specialist’, Mistermatic. As well as routine maintenance, the firm has undertaken the following over the past decade: suspension refurbishment (new front springs and six shock absorbers, 2014), new radiator (2015), rear brake overhaul (2017), new Lambda sensor (2019) and replacement top wishbone bushes (2020). Amazingly well preserved for a thirty-two year old machine, the Convertible belies its age and mileage. Finished in gleaming Metallic Red with Beige leather upholstery, its Black mohair hood is in very good order. The engine bay, boot floor and front footwells are all worthy of close inspection as is the whole car. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, history file and fresh MOT certificate.
