What’s special about this listing

This is a true classic. 1986 XJS V12 is a beautiful and powerful car. She still purrs when cruising comfortably at 80 mph. Going on 40 yrs, there are a few rust spots around the undercarriage. I am third owner of this car. I took possession in the Summer of 1998. It had 105,000 miles on her. Over the past 20 years, it has been mostly garaged and taken out for weekend jaunts or special occasions. It has never failed smog. In 2021, it underwent a full service tune up, replacing spark plug/wires, new battery, distributor cap, fluids, etc. A set of new wheels complimented the factory rims that my mechanic was able to secure in 2023. The tires have less than 50 driving miles on them. I love my car and I'm hoping to find a new home for her; someone that will continue to care for her. I'm not able to drive her as much and give her the time she deserves. Her engine is strong and I know that the V12 needs to be driven routinely to keep everything working properly. Please don't let the mileage deter you from inquiring. She has been well cared for. I have only added 19,884 on her over the past 27 years. She is definitely a looker and will provide years of joy for the next lucky owner.
