Jaguar XJ-SC 5.3 V12 Targa convertible

The last example of the legendary E-Type rolled off the production line in Coventry in 1974. Its successor, the XJ-S, was to lead the fleet for even longer with a production time of over 20 years. The timeless design was created by in-house designer Malcolm Sayer. He had already designed the C-, D- and E-Type as well as the breathtaking XJ13. Initially, the XJ-S was only available with the aluminium V12, but towards the end of production it was also available with an in-line six-cylinder engine. There was a coupé, a convertible and only a few Targa versions. The Targa was practically a convertible with a roll bar, as the rear part of the roof could also be lowered. Various versions are therefore possible, for example with only an open flap above the driver's seat. Of the 115,000 vehicles built in total, only around 5,000 were of this type. One of them was for Princess Diana.

This vehicle was newly registered in Switzerland in 1987. Windsor Blue on the outside and Isis Blue on the inside form a subtle colour combination. The car is in very good mechanical condition and has been freshly inspected. The body shows signs of wear commensurate with the kilometres, but is in good, rust-free overall condition. The engine is a replacement engine that was installed at 105,000 kilometres. The replacement was carried out by a Jaguar specialist workshop. A beautiful and rare Jaguar overall, which is also suitable as an everyday vehicle without any problems. Fresh from MFK and immediately ready to drive.
