Description

Hello from sunny Palm Springs! A friend of mine recently called about this stunning "Lady in Red" he'd found tucked away in a garage in Glendale. an upscale suburb of Los Angeles. I knew at first glance that I had to snap her up for my fellow ebayers who can't get enough of our collectible California Jags. She's a true Southern California lady. for sure . not a speck of rust or unsightly decay to be found anywhere. Here are the bullet points for those of you who like it "short and sweet" . a more detailed description follows the 60 high resolution pics below. 1989 Jaguar XJS Coupe92. 00 original milesFlawless original Signal Red paintConnolly saddle leather interior in fantastic original condition . hides still soft and supplePerfect original Jaguar honeycomb chrome wheelsMatching set of nearly new tires (they're Coopers. but surprisingly quiet and smooth riding)Electrical features fully functional . NO. I'm not kidding!Starts right up. runs quietly. shifts through all the gears with ease. and stops well. and there she is. She's quite a looker. huh? After shooting the pics today. I drove her downtown to meet some friends for lunch. I parked her right on Palm Canyon Drive. the main drag. and when I came back from lunch there were three different people taking pictures of her and with her. Seriously. Now I'm sure they were tourists. but still . just know that if you buy her. be prepared to be noticed. She's incredibly red. she's painfully pretty. and she definitely knows how to draw a crowd. She's also a Jaguar made by the British in the 1980's. so I'm sure she's got a few. well . let's just call them "idiosyncrasies. "Other than a quarter inch sag in the driver's door. though. I don't know what they are yet. I had a flatbed bring her back from L. A. over the weekend and today was really the first time I've driven her. She goes to see Theo. my mechanic. in the morning (Wednesday) and I'll be updating this description as soon as I get his report. I don't expect him to find her in need of much. though. as she drove quite well this afternoon. I can say that even though it was 90+ degrees today. she ran nice and cool . no overheating issues whatsoever. I can also report that the A/C blows. but not very cold . not a surprise for a car that's been used little in the past few years. Oh. and the Pioneer stereo system sound wonderful! I'm no fan of aftermarket stereos . except when they're in a Jag. The factory head units are terrible. OK. so that's it for now . if this pretty lady has peaked your interest. please check back tomorrow evening for a more detailed report on her mechanical condition. Until then. thanks for looking!About me: I'm a private party seller who buys several quality cars and/or trucks each year that I know will find good homes with fellow ebay auto enthusiasts. If they end up putting a few extra bucks in my pocket. then great … if not. no biggie. since I don’t do this for a living. I've been selling unique cars and trucks on ebay since 2001 and have never had a single deal go sideways. as evidenced by my perfect feedback score. I have a tremendous amount of fun hunting all over Southern California for original. unmolested. rust free 1970's. 80's and 90’s vehicles. I only buy what I really. REALLY like. and. since the "saving" aspect really is the most gratifying part for me. I'm happy to pass along these special cars or trucks to those elsewhere in the country - and the world - where clean original vehicles of this vintage have long since rusted into the ground. Being in Palm Springs is great because not only is this place an awesome hunting ground for low mileage. zero-rust garage queens. but I can travel to virtually any "cool find" in Los Angeles. Orange County or San Diego in 125 miles or less. If you'd like to speak with me personally or have me do a "walk around" of this XJS with you by phone. just shoot me a note through ebay messaging with your phone number. time zone and a good time to call. Thanks for checking out my auction and have a great day!
