AI Listing Summary

This rare Jaguar XJ-SC features the sought-after "Princess Diana" rear seat configuration and shows just 57,251 miles.

Condition

7

The car has had recent mechanical work including a replacement torque converter, new battery, and new spark plugs, along with a compression test. The interior has been cleaned and transformed from its previously soiled state. While the mechanicals appear to be in order and the interior has improved, the description mentions it entered long-term storage and was acquired for restoration but the project was not pursued, suggesting some level of reconditioning may be needed to bring it to a higher standard. The overall condition is described as 'rewarding and usable classic in its current form' with 'excellent potential for further improvement', fitting the 'Very Good' category.

Unlike the standard XJ-SC arrangement with a rear luggage platform, this car is fitted with occasional rear seats, a configuration made famous after Princess Diana requested the modification so that Princes William and Harry could travel with her while her protection officer occupied the front passenger seat.

The extensive history file suggests the car spent much of its life in the Nottingham area, being shown at classic car events during its earlier years and evidence within the file also suggests that one of the previous owners was likely a member of the JOC.
