Items 1 - 50 of The XJS was known for mixing the excellent speed and acceleration of a grand tourer with the comforts of a luxury sedan. The XJS could very well be a collector model someday, so it is certainly in your best interest to maintain the health of your vehicle. Production of the XJS was split into three distinct series. Series 1 was sold beginning in , and saw just a few changes until Series 1 XJS models were equipped with a powerful 5. These XJS models were comparable with Ferraris and Lamborghinis of the time, outputting similar acceleration and top speed to the other sporty cars.
After , the XJS was equipped with a new, 5. Externally, the vehicle acquired a much sleeker look. The Series 2 XJS featured a few different variations. I know an XJS isn't really in the same league but will it be a nice drive and able to be hussled along an A road? Granted, I'm somewhat biased towards the XJS and frequently wax lyrical about them, but imho the XJS is a glorious car to drive, from a time and a manufacturer that understood ride quality.
That's not to say that it can't be hustled along some twisty A-roads either, the lighter I6 being better in that respect than the V Pick an example that's been polybushed, or budget accordingly, and it really tightens up the handling in the curves; not that the standard rubbers are bad per se well, aside from the steering rack ones , but it's a big car and like all big cars it can eat rubber bushes fairly quickly.
It's often forgotten that Jaguar's suspension designs were technically superior to most other manufacturers at the time, and the reason why the XJS could combine ride comfort with prodigious grip in the corners. At the front, double wishbones with anti-dive geometry to allow the spring rates to be reduced.
Chapman knew a thing or two about suspension and long advocated soft springs and firm damping - exactly what's found on the XJS. The standard brakes are very good, firm with plenty of feel, and more than up to the job of fast road driving. It's a big car, so no matter how clever the Jaguar designers it was never going to be a B-road blaster, but give it space and it doesn't disappoint. NeedaGT4 posts months. I grew up in Jag XJSs.
