Description
When Jaguar launched the XJS in 1975, it did not meet with universal approval and several years were to pass before it was generally accepted as a fine car in its own right. Jaguar's perseverance and dedication, however, resulted in many improvements and eventually in booming sales. 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.
In this updated edition, Jaguar authority Nigel Thorley provides a comprehensive study of this classic GT car, telling the full development story and giving advice on buying and maintaining a car. Illustrated throughout in colour and rounded off with detailed appendices containing production figures, specifications and colour schemes, this fascinating book will appeal to all XJS enthusiasts as well as anyone with an interest in all matters Jaguar.
