The Jaguar XJS was one of the finest grand touring cars of its era even if, when launched in 1975, it raised a few eyebrows. It survived the British Leyland days, Jaguar's privatisation and the takeover by Ford, Jaguar's perseverance and dedication, however, resulted in many improvements and eventually in booming sales and is now much in demand as an affordable and practical classic car.
This distinctive model remained in production for no fewer than 21 years, during which time it became regarded as a classic, with more than 115,000 produced, and has earned a lasting place in Jaguar's history.
The all-colour Jaguar XJS Book, now available in paperback covers the full road car and competition history, including how the XJS came about, the development, styling, and marketing strategy. The Jaguar XJS Book is essential reading for all Jaguar enthusiasts and includes plenty of invaluable practical information on buying an XJS, ownership, maintenance and modifications, along with details of specialists and clubs of this affordable and practical classic car.
The author Nigel Thorley is a highly respected Jaguar expert, has written more than a dozen books on various aspects of the marque, and was a founder member of the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club. He lives near Doncaster.
