This 1977 Jaguar XJ-S, priced at $36,995, is a rare pre-HE model with only 77,000 km and one owner since new.
Originally purchased in London and shipped to Australia via Jaguar’s personal export scheme, it retains its original Signal Red paint and Biscuit leather interior.
Designed by Malcolm Sayer and completed by Doug Thorpe’s team, the XJ-S succeeded the E-Type and featured a 5343cc V12 engine with automatic transmission.
Its performance rivalled Ferrari and Lamborghini, making it a standout grand tourer of its era.

The car includes a complete set of original documents—keys, purchase correspondence, service records, and colour charts—making it a collector’s dream.
It has been meticulously maintained, always garaged, and never driven in the rain.
The bodywork is largely untouched, with only minor blemishes and bumper repainting.
The Kent alloy wheels are pristine, and recent servicing includes new tyres, rear shock absorbers, and brake pads.

Inside, the cabin is remarkably preserved. Gauges, switchgear, and the steering wheel show minimal wear.
The air-conditioning needs re-gassing, and the leather seats—previously covered with sheepskin—are restorable.
Carpets and roof lining are in excellent condition, and the boot is immaculate.
The engine bay, though never detailed, remains clean and original.

Mechanically, the car performs flawlessly, delivering the smooth drive expected of a V12 Jaguar.
Capable of reaching 100 kph in 7.9 seconds, it remains a competent touring vehicle.
With its originality, documentation, and condition, this XJ-S is a rare opportunity for collectors seeking a piece of Jaguar history.
