This 1996 Jaguar XJS convertible is finished in black over a black leather interior and powered by a 4.0-liter inline-six and 4-speed automatic transmission. The car was originally leased in Tennessee in 1996 and had four previous owners before the seller acquired it in 2014. 87k miles are currently showing on the odometer, and the seller has driven the car 1850 miles during four years of ownership. Recent service includes an oil and filter change and tire rotation. This XJS convertible is offered with a tool kit, battery trickle charger, car cover, Carfax report, and a clear Arizona title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in black, and comes with color-matched bumpers and a matching boot cover. Factory 16″ wheels wear Pirelli P4 tires, and a full spare is mounted in the trunk. The seller notes that the driver’s side door has been repainted. The power black top is equipped with a glass rear window. The convertible top switch was recently repaired and the seller notes that the inside liner of the top is beginning to show some deterioration.

The cabin is finished in black leather and features walnut trim on the dashboard, steering wheel, and center console. The analogue clock is no longer working, and the parking brake does not hold the car effectively. Custom front floor mats are installed, and the originals are also included.

The 4.0-liter inline-six produced a factory-rated 237 horsepower and 282 lb-ft of torque when new. The car reportedly has an upgraded OEM chain tensioner, and a new radiator with extra cooling capacity.
