    Owned 6 years I've only done a few hundred miles in it.....I have been living in Asia the last few years and I have too many toys :)
    I think it has about 82k original miles on it. I am the 3rd owner. The second owner had it over 30 years. Its a rare color Azure blue with a tan interior
    I have a bill from previous owner for an extensive engine rebuild in 1998 when the milage was 79k
    Previous owner also advised he had reupholstered the front seats (rear seats are still original), replaced rear shocks, tires, fuel pump, rebuilt transmission. All that he estimated at $10k cost.
    Since I have had it I have put a further $3k into it with replacing a couple of valves and all exhaust manifolds.
    Its 5.3 litre V12, automatic.
    The car is in storage in Northern California. I am going out there next week and have decided to sell it. I enclose some photo's I got when I bought the car. It looks great on those:)
    I think it needs a repaint to do it justice. Its not rusty, its had one poor repaint about 20 years ago and has a small ding on one of the front fenders. Chrome is OK but not concourse.
    Its a very decent driver as is.

    Her's the good news... Clean title in my name and I will sell it for $20,000

    I've been out of the Jaguar market for many years but honestly a Jaguar V12 automatic is the most undesirable 12 cylinder car out there. I owned one....it is a wussy cat.

    Glassman, You owned one? Really? Must need someone that knows how to tune it or drive it. My V-12 Jag with auto burns rubber and drives like I stole it.... all
    while I've got a cocktail in my hand.......Great car!

    That's a beautiful car, and I've always wanted one. Is blue the original color?

    Best wishes on a good sale.
