Offered here is the final evolution of the Jaguar XJS, hand-built at JaguarSport at Bloxham, the high-tech facility that had been home to XJ220 production. Launched in 1988, JaguarSport was a 50/50 joint venture between Jaguar and Tom Walkinshaw’s TWR (not to be confused with Jaguar-Sport), a relationship that had begun with the famous TWR prepared XJS’ that dominated Touring Cars in the eighties. The JaguarSport XJR-S may have looked similar to their production counterparts but differed immensely with many parts unique to the model and of course its 6.0-litre V12 engine.The engine was rated at 318hp and was 700cc larger than the previous 5.3 litre V12. A modified intake system and a low-loss true dual exhaust system was part of the car’s advanced specification. The suspension was further developed by TWR with increased coil spring rates and the Bilstein shocks, front and rear, were specially tuned for the XJR-S. Externally, the cars were modified with a subtly aggressive body kit and host of modifications inside included a full Connolly Autolux leather interior. Only 115 were built in right-hand drive and consequently are very rare.

This beautifully presented, post-facelift, 331bhp XJR-S has lived a rather cossetted life and certainly the last two owners searched out the very best available for their collections. Finished in Flamenco Red with a Magnolia interior, having covered only 70,960 miles and recently benefitting from a ceramic wax polish the car's stunning condition would make it a worthy addition to any collection of rare Jaguars . In addition to ownership documents, older MOTs and a wedge of invoices, the substantial history file contains a copy of Jaguar World from 2015 which features this car.

Quite rightly 6.0-litre XJS derivatives are being sought out and, in this condition and at this guide, we feel sure it leads the field of worthy candidates.
