Old Jaguar but New to Me

[workworkwork]

I recently joined those who love Jaguars and completed the purchase of a 1988 Jaguar XJS. I have own various different cars over the years but have been drawn to this car. I read lots of conflicting information on the good and bad of owning these cars. But, after my test drive I was hooked and had to have it. I hope to get lots of good advice and help here. I have the V12 engine. The car has 48,000 miles on it. I was told by the shop that did the maintenance on this car from the previous owner that the car was well maintained and they rattled through various maintenance items. I hope that holds true. Any advice I receive here will be greatly appreciated and welcomed. This car will not be a daily driver for me but a cherished collector car that will get driven for fun and pleasure.

Hi Ralph and welcome to the Club.

 

Thee are quite a few XJS owners in the club who cherish these great cars.  Some people compare them to the E Type, but they shouldn't as they are two different cars.  

 

You car looks great and I  hope that it keeps the promises.

 

Regards,

 

Peter.
