This 1983 5.3L Series III XJ12 is in very good shape, with only 2 owners and just 18,750 miles since being fully restored by KWE in 2003. This particular Jaguar is a vital part of KWE’s heritage, based on the top of the range Jaguar XJ12, this was the second K2 turnkey car that KWE produced.

Our client has been using the car daily to commute to and from London. He is very sad to let it go, having passed the job of finding a new owner on to KWE, he hopes we’ll find a buyer that will get the same pride and enjoyment out of it as he did. Here are a few words from the current owner:

“I count myself fortunate to have found KWE 10 years ago, and to have bought a K12 (Series 3 XJ Saloon). Apart from being a truly beautiful motor car which attracts smiling comments and thumbs up from little boys from 8 to 80, Scaramanga, as my twin daughters christened him, has been my daily drive for the past decade.  He has been a truly practical alternative to a modern car and a beloved member of the family who has given us great pleasure. When you meet people locally for the first time and they say “you don’t know who owns that beautiful old Jaguar do you, it brightens my morning every day when I see it”, you know you’re doing something right.  Thank you Chris and team for many happy years of motoring.”

OWNER REVIEWS

  • I will have to make a journey to the hospital today to have this ridiculous grin surgically removed from my face. Dealing with you and the rest of the KWE Team has been a pleasure. Many thanks.Mr D.J.W., Lanarkshire, KWE Suspension/Brakes/Steering
  • I am absolutely thrilled & delighted (to say the least) to be re-united with Grace after these months of waiting and keen anticipation. The car drives beautifully and I feel life has gained an extra quality…Mr P.W., Berkshire, XJS Upgrade
  • I’m delighted that you have made such a good start already and many thanks for the photos. It really shows the benefit of your approach of prospectively replacing the things that are likely to fail and about a non-KWE car:Mr J.H., Birmingham, KWE K12
  • I am absolutely thrilled with the new gearbox and transmission. The inside of the car is a real joy too and lovely to live with. I was also pleasantly surprised at the number of appreciative looks, waves, hoots, and comments during the journey eg is that really an A reg?… Well done.Mr M.D., Andorra, XJ6 Upgrade
  • I think you have sprinkled magic dust and made a good car truly great. Jerry will be my daily driver through the summer and complete at least 400 miles a week. I’ll keep you posted…Mr A.T., Oxon, XJS Upgrade
  • The suspension changes and power enhancement package have completely transformed this car.The difference between the standard set up and your upgrade is quite simply astonishing.Dr C.S., Swindon, XJS Upgrade
