November 2021 Classics Auction
1984 Jaguar XJ-SC 3.6
Registration - B567 TUB
Chassis No. - SAJJNACC7CC114471
M.O.T. - April 2022
Odometer - 91,225
Finished in the pleasing combination of Antelope Gold bodywork and beige hide upholstery, this XJ-SC is equipped with the desirable five-speed manual gearbox as well as a rare rear seat conversion complete with related seat belts. It is a seven owner example, the previous one of whom retained the Jaguar for no less than 15 years, and rides on its original Starfish alloy wheels shod with Pirelli tyres to the original specification. The odometer presently registers a very credible 91,225 miles from new, and the vendor grades the Jaguar’s straight-six engine, transmission, bodywork and interior trim as ‘good’, and the paintwork as ‘average’ in deference to a few minor faults. He adds that ‘B567 TUB’ is ‘a well-maintained car that performs as it should and can realistically return 30mpg’. It is now available complete with a sizeable history file, original handbook and a current MOT valid to April 19 next year.
Launched in September 1975, the XJ-S (later XJS) was designed by Malcolm Sayer with input from Sir William Lyons. Though effectively a replacement for the legendary E-Type, it was a cat of very different character – a luxurious, high-speed grand tourer rather than a race-bred sports car. Based on the XJ saloon, it was a two-door monocoque equipped with all round independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and rack and pinion steering. New for 1983 was the two-seat XJ-SC. A semi-convertible, it featured a non-removable Targa-type centre section and fixed cant rails above the doors. The model continued in production until 1988 when it was replaced by the full convertible model. Rare even in period it is thought only 100-110 XJ-SCs remain existence.
In summary:
- Equipped with a rare rear seat conversion and related seat belts
- Comes complete with large history file
- Thought to be one of only 100-110 XJ-SCs remaining
