This 1990 Jaguar XJS is finished in light blue over blue leather upholstery and is powered by a 5.3-liter V12 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a power-operated convertible soft top, an onboard computer, automatic climate control, cruise control, heated seats, 15″ basketweave wheels, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo. The car was acquired by the current owner in December 2012 and is now offered on dealer consignment with a top boot, a tool kit, Jaguar Clubs of North America Inc. Concours d’Elegance scoring sheets and awards, partial service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Maryland title in the owner’s name.

The car is finished in light blue and features a power-operated dark blue convertible soft top and a matching top boot. Additional exterior details include a retractable antenna, a trunk-mounted brake light, pinstriping, fog lights with covers, and impact bumpers with black rubber and chrome trim. The selling dealer states the soft top has been replaced and the trunk lid has been repaired.

Gray-finished 15″ basketweave wheels wear Jaguar-logo center caps and are wrapped in 235/60 BFGoodrich Radial thin-whitewall tires that show 2012 date codes. Braking is handled by four-wheel disc brakes, and a spare wheel wearing a vinyl cover is located in the trunk.

The cabin features heated bucket seats trimmed in blue leather with a matching center console and door panels, which are accented with woodgrain veneers. Rubber floor mats line the footwells, and equipment includes an AM/FM/cassette stereo, an onboard computer, automatic climate control, cruise control, and power windows and locks. The air conditioning system does not blow cold air according to the selling dealer.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and voltage. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows 9k miles, approximately 4k of which were added by the owner.

The fuel-injected 5.3-liter V12 was factory rated at 262 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission.

1990 Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible

For consignment, a 1990 Jaguar XJS V12 convertible with a title verified 9,612 actual miles. A two owner car in a stunning spec and a sporty soft top for some windblown grand touring. Enzo Ferrari may have said the XKE is the most beautiful car in the world, but we know a few people who think some of Jaguar's best work is encapsulated in the XJS.

Exterior

Ten colors were available for the 1990 XJS and this one shines in Artic Blue mated to a Dark Blue canvas roof which presents a rich contrast. A low shoulder line results in low wrap around bumpers, contouring to the gentle curve in front and arrow straight in back with very nice chrome. The flat deck lid rounds off at the edges and the distinctive tail lights absorb that shape and fit flush, symmetrically positioned over fluted dual exhaust tips. In front, the long, sleek hood descends into a valley flanked by lifting body panels that take in the quad headlights next to a streamlined grille and covered fog lights. 15-inch gray mesh style wheels seem just right for this personal luxury vehicle which has excellent paint and brightwork, along with a top that's in great shape. A single scuff on the radius of a wheel opening is the only imperfection we find on the outside.

Interior

You can look at the door panels and just know they are made with quality materials. They're tight, clean, and efficiently designed here in blue with a burl wood accent. Blue leather bucket seats are providing ribbed inserts and tall backs all in wonderful shape. There are no back seats, only a flat carpeted cargo area. The driver is handed a fairly average black steering wheel which fronts an instrument cluster in a black cove with the tach and speedometer flanking vertical gauges under a row of idiot and indicator lights. The real magic begins in the middle of the dash where highly varnished burl wood veneer takes center stage, surrounding vents, buttons, the glove box, and the center console where the somewhat petite shifter rises gently from the base. An AM/FM/Cassette deck is not far away and a stainless cup holder is on the other side of the shifter, embedded into the armrest. Low pile gray carpet covers the floor and the tan headliner of the canvas roof is in great shape. The trunk is wonderfully configured, covered in carpet, and housing an extra mesh wheel.

Drivetrain

Jaguars infamous butter smooth 5.3 liter V12 occupies the engine bay, and every inch of it! The engine features Bosch Lucas Digital EFI and power is rated at 286 horsepower, more than enough to move this sleek cat through mountain chicanes. GM's TH400 3-speed automatic transmission is mated to the engine sending power to the rear axle where it finds 2.88 gears. Both the front and rear wheels benefit from the presence of power disc brakes.

Undercarriage

Nice and clean underneath with minimal surface rust, clear knuckles, and no apparent leaks. The belly pan is undercoated and the dual exhaust flows through original equipment mufflers before exiting through polished pipes. Independent, coil spring suspension is equipped on the front and rear.

Drive-Ability

Not only a great looking car, but the low cockpit provides a comfortable perch from which operate the Jag, smooth leather and pleasing wood sets the mood and off we go onto our test loop where the car provides a level ride, great handling, and surefooted braking and the engine purrs like buttah! We note the radio is not working and needs a pass code, and the power top is not operating. All other functions on this low mileage example function as they should.
