*Jaguar XJ12C: The Rare Coupé with a Powerful Twelve-Cylinder Heart*
A Jaguar should be like the animal it's named after—elegant, composed, and always ready to strike. This rare Jaguar XJ12C checks every box. Graceful? Without question. Comfortable? Absolutely. And under the hood, a 5.3-liter V12 that delivers its power with effortless authority when the moment calls for it.

Only 1,269 left-hand-drive examples of this V12 coupé were ever built. What you’re looking at is far from ordinary. Finished in a timeless silver-grey paint over deep red leather, this Jaguar is a true gentleman’s express. And it’s backed by a comprehensive service history, complete with the original stamped maintenance book and a thick file of service records.

*Well-Preserved and Professionally Repainted*
The body has been professionally resprayed and remains in very neat condition. Chrome trim, bumpers, and wheels are all in neat shape, with only the lightest signs of use, which is impressive for a car that’s approaching fifty. It’s clear this XJ12C has been looked after with great care.

Step inside, and you’re greeted by an interior that tells a story. Rich red leather seats, matching red carpeting, a classic wood-rimmed steering wheel, a vintage-style modern radio, and a dashboard adorned with warm wood veneer. It’s a space that feels both authentic and inviting. This is a cabin with character. Be sure to browse the photos for a closer look.

*The Legendary Jaguar V12: Smooth, Strong, and Ready*
The 5.3-liter V12 fires up immediately and runs with the kind of silky smoothness you’d expect from this iconic engine. The automatic transmission shifts seamlessly, the steering is precise, and the overall driving experience is nothing short of great. The ride is refined and comfortable, yet it still responds with surprising agility when asked. It’s a perfect touring car: effortless power paired with understated elegance.

Mechanically, this car is in great shape, and we don’t say that lightly. The service history includes a long list of specialist invoices, both recent and historic, proving this XJ12C has received the attention it deserves. It also comes with the original owner’s manual and service booklet.

*A True Icon with a Story*
The XJ12C is a rare and distinctive Jaguar. Produced for only a few years, it represents a unique blend of performance and luxury. Sharing chassis and suspension elements with the legendary E-Type, it’s topped with a hardtop coupé roofline that arguably makes it even more handsome than the later XJS. It’s an icon, not just for how it looks or performs, but for the era it represents.
