EXTERIOR
This sublime sporting Jaguar offers finesse and exhilaration even at standstill finished in cool Arctic Blue, (Code JFE). A beautiful glossy sheen is visible thanks to two clear coats of lacquer applied at factory and a garaged existence from the only owner. The purposeful aerodynamic aids, all in amazing condition, separate this rare edition from lesser models and remind onlookers of the collaboration with Tom Walkinshaw Racing. A few discreet blemishes namely to the front bumper in the form of stone chips will not prevent those enjoying the show circuit. The engine bay has not been detailed and still retains all factory warning stickers. A rare prime example that started the 26-year lineage of Jaguar’s official R-badged road cars.

INTERIOR

An unused jack and wheel brace are found in the carpeting bag along with the toolkit in the hard plastic case. The screwdriver is missing. An immensely rewarding interior and fit to grace the once fastest road going Jaguar.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Being the 1990 model year this rare example has the awesome 6.0 litre engine. Providing 362lb/ft of torque at 3750rpm and 318bhp this has a claimed top speed of 158mph (limited) and 0-60mph acceleration time of 6.5 seconds and amounted to a 17% increase in torque and 11% more power than the 5.3 litre engine. Re-engineered crankshaft, pistons, connecting rods, cylinder liners and new sequential digital ignition engine management system made by Zytek and derived from the Group C World Sportscar Jaguars are a few noteworthy performance upgrades. The transmission is a special Hydramatic-developed version of the legendary GM 400 automatic gearbox uprated and re-calibrated to match the 6.0 litre engine so changes are crisp and responsive.

I've just had an accident in my underpants! That is one STUNNING Jag. The XJS has always been a car that I have desired, and makes my top 5 of cars that I wish I'd owned. (One day, maybe) But this example has to be at the top of my list of desired motors. Beautiful, just beautiful.

I had a RACAL car phone like that in my Sierra 1.6 1987 😁

Beautiful looking Jaguar. My dad had an XJS when I was a boy.
