1989 Jaguar XJS Reviews

The car has been rock solid until last week. I drove this car as a daily driver, and had no issues other than replacing the tires and brakes, which are not expensive, being this is considered an exotic car.

Minor oil leaks typical of a 20 plus year old Jag.

Replaced thermostats because of over heating.

Now there is an electrical problem with the fuel injection system. The car is rough to start and constantly stalls out. My local mechanic cannot figure it out, and from what they are telling me, it's gonna be an expensive fix. The ECU and electrical system fail over time, so it's not Jaguar, it's all cars. Somehow water got into the fuel and shorted out a bunch of electronics. I will get it fixed, it is worth every penny you put into it.

Oh yeah, it's not as bad as they say on gas; I get about 18 MPG on the highway, but use premium!

Well I have had this car for over a year and put on over 30K. I always loved the sleek body of the coupe over the convertible. It has been reliable and just a joy to drive. Every single day, I am not kidding either, every single day someone mentions to me how beautiful it is.

I love this car. The raw power and vintage looks make it stand out from anything else on the road. The car accelerates like a jet, and you can feel the power of the V-12 zipping in an out of traffic.

The interior is simple but classy; British styling at its best. The cockpit is a little tough to get into, but once inside there is a ton of leg room to spread out.

Yes, you dump a ton of money into these, but if you put it all together, it costs you on average about $1500-$2000 a year to keep this car in excellent running condition. You won't be disappointed!

Third owner according to Carfax.

A/C does not get cold. Haven't figured out what the fix is yet.

Car was wrecked (seller lied) Bad paint job and body work.

Passenger side window sticks.

Driver side seat doesn't heat.

This car is the most gorgeous and stunning thing there is. I can't stop at the gas station without it taking three times as long cause people want to know what it is and what it has in it!

The car sits low to the ground and is a very comfortable seat unless you are large, then, getting in and out of it is difficult. My husband would much rather sit in the drivers seat due to comfort, but would rather not be in it at all due to size of interior! Personally, I feel like it fits me to a T.

This car is fast, stunning, and quite. There is nothing like driving this car down the highway at over 100 mph. You never even know it til you are there! It is easy to get into trouble in this car. It is quiet as a mouse and feels like it is running on a cloud.

Basically, you will never find anything else like it, and you will either love it or hate it. I will own this car until it gives out completely.
