1988 Jaguar XJS Cabrolet Convertible V12 Hess & Eisenhardt

1988 Jaguar XJS

Beautiful Low Mileage California Born example of the Jaguars highly collectible first version of the SJS convertible. Very clean, rust free, cold AC. New Pirelli tires, Dayton wire wheels.
Less than 900 of these H&E convertibles were made, fully authorized by Jaguar as the first convertible offering of the SJS, and far fewer have survived in this beautiful condition, making this car one of the rarest Jaguars of the era. Some estimate less than 150 still exist.
Leather interior has some wear but is beautiful for its age. Some tears in the top as seen in the photos but why would you drive this with the top up anyways?
Hess & Eisenhardt had a rich history of building custom conversions for presidents, queens, and celebrities. They famously built the $500,000 stretch Lincoln convertible for JFK, and several stretch Lincolns convertibles for Queen Elizabeth II that featured a custom hydraulic seat lift to ensure that she was seen higher than anyone else riding with her.
A few months after this particular car was built, a fire burned the original H&E facility to the ground, making this one of the last cars produced in that historic building.
