1994 Jaguar XJS review from UK and Ireland
"A wonderful effortless and fast drive for the open road"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New Cat at 65000.
New brakes at 70000.
New rear drive distributor £1300.
General comments?
This car is a joy to drive and turns heads, particularly when it's just been polished up!
I did 2 trips up to Scotland from the South West in it this year and it behaved perfectly. It was doing what it was designed to do after all!
I use this car more or less everyday, but sometimes park it up for several weeks; always starting first time although it needs a few seconds to start breathing properly again.
I get this car serviced at the local Jaguar specialist, who is brilliant, and who doesn't charge the earth- £250 for a standard service; a bit more if you get the gearbox oil changed as well... but not extortionate.
I don't want to get rid of this car, but may have to as my daughter no longer fits in the back!
