The Jaguar XJS was presented on the London Earls Court Motor show in the year 1975. Jaguar intended the XJS to be the successor of the famous E-type (XK-E). That was not really the case because the E-type was engineered as a sport scar with exception of the later V12 automatic models. The Jaguar XJS was a large, luxurious and very comfortable GT. Until the year 1983 the XJS was only available as fastback coupe standard fitted with the fabulous Jaguar V12 engine. In 1983 the XJS cabriolet saw the light of day and with it a new 3.6 Litre six cylinder engine was introduced. The cabriolet featured a roll over bar and fixed window frames which did not give the car the appeal of a true cabriolet. In the year 1988 a full open top model followed; the XJS convertible. The new convertible was a car of great beauty with its long and stretched lines. The XJS models were given all imaginable luxury and electrically powered goodies. Driving an XJS is an experience of sheer luxury, comfort and smooth power. The XJS convertible was at first only sold with the 5.3 Litre V12 engine. In the year 1991 a new 4.0 Litre six cylinder engine became available. In 1993 the 5.3 Litre V12 was succeeded by the equally powerful 6.0 Litre V12. In total a little over 28.000 Jaguar XJS convertibles have been built between the years 1988 and 1995. The XJS is one of those cars which become more beautiful over the years. Excellent original convertibles are hard to find and firm priced. Good investment and a future classic. 6 cilinder
