*Desirable colour combination

Odometer Reading: 33150
MOT Expiry: 16/09/2020

Jaguar's XJ saloon-derived Coupe was a short-lived attempt to create a formal two-door with all the elegance and refinement of the saloon, but with the kudos of a two-door pillarless construction. By its very nature many left the factory in automatic transmission form, but some were equipped with a manual gearbox, as this 1977 example shows. It is offered in generally good condition, with good bodywork, paint and glass. Trim is also said to be good. The interior remains smart and comfortable. The engine starts and runs well and the running gear is good. Showing a mere 33,000 miles on the odometer and with a comprehensive service history, including many MOTs and invoices from its early life as well as a Heritage Certificate the XJC on offer has been part of a collection for the last decade and presents very well. Recently the XJC has been treated to much recommissioning including belts and fluids. The rare XJ-derived Coupe makes a superb alternative to a Corniche fixed-head.

Remaining in it's original finish of Fern grey with Cinnamon interior, this XJ‑C is one of less than 150 factory supplied cars from a total production run of 10,500. We have been advised that it was formerly part of a museum display for several years and was first issued with cherished number SJT 1 until acquired by it's second owner in 1986. Four registered owners in total, the last since 2019. It's last MoT on file is dated 2001 with mileage of 32,925 and currently records mileage of 33,164 which is warranted. Comes with the original passport to service stamped from 1976 to 1986, many MoTs dating from 1979 to 2001, Heritage certificate and older V5.
