One of Jaguar’s finest luxury cars, the XJS is well-known for its interesting styling and growling V12 engine. Produced for 21 years, the model ran between 1975 and 1996. The XJS saw many updates along the way, but have you heard of the Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible? Hess & Eisenhardt was an American outfit who converted regular Jaguar XJS examples into custom convertibles, before Jaguar themselves started officially offering a convertible. And that’s what we’ve got for sale today, a 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible with the signature custom Hess & Eisenhardt body modifications that make it a gorgeous drop-top for weekend cruises. The car comes to you with a mere 72,000 miles, and infinite charisma.
This 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible presents itself in a beautiful shade of blue. But that’s not the sole element of its allure. Its double headlamps, beautifully flowing lines, alloy wheels and power-operated soft top all add to the car’s overall aura. There’s also a color-coordinated boot cover, a heated glass rear window, and a color-keyed high-mounted rear stop lamp. The blue interior of this 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible is a two-seat affair, with two plush leather seats awaiting an eager driver and enthusiastic passenger. The seats are power-adjustable and heated too. There are also electrically-operated windows, including the rear quarter windows, power-adjustable mirrors, and climate control. Then, we observe a trip computer and a Jaguar radio cassette player sitting in the center console. Meanwhile, behind the two seats lies a carpeted rear luggage area, with a chrome plated luggage retention rail, and even a leather-trimmed boot storage bag in the trunk. The rear compartment also contains interior lamps for more convenience. You can see the extent to which Hess & Eisenhardt have gone to create something truly amazing.
What Hess & Eisenhardt have left alone with this 1988 Jaguar XJS Hess & Eisenhardt Convertible is the engine. That’s because Jaguar already did a fine job, placing a lovely 5.3L V12 beneath the hood, and driving the rear wheels via a smooth automatic gearbox. With around 260 horses waiting for your command, you can enjoy a surprisingly sprightly ride.

Lucky for you, what we have here is a stunning example of a 1990 Jaguar XJ-S Convertible boasting a V12 heart under its hood.

The Jaguar E-Type is fair to say one of the most iconic cars to grace the earth. It would be remiss to talk about the E-Type's design without using the often-quoted line from Enzo Ferrari, who said it was the most beautiful car ever made. The Jaguar's smooth throwing lines defined the European motoring in the 60s. Suffice to say, the E-Type turns heads. It's good fun to cruise around town in an E-Type, looking all smooth, suave, and sophisticated. This is your opportunity to experience it with this original example of the 1970 Jaguar E-Type SII Roadster. The owner claims it boasts 13,000 original miles and retains its original engine and transmission.

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class was born as a sports car with no intention of developing into a street version. Two years later, a street-legal version was proposed for wealthy performance car enthusiasts, as the personal luxury car market was thriving at the time. A few decades later, the famed German automaker Mercedes-Benz commemorated the 60th anniversary of a memorable motor racing success. An extraordinary special model of the SL Roadster was unveiled to celebrate this milestone, and it was dubbed the "Mille Miglia," referring to the unexpected victory of a 300 SL in the production sports cars class in 1955. This example is a 2016 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Special Edition Mille Miglia 417 with 30,150 miles on its clock. This is your chance to experience the unique symbiosis of maximum comfort and motor-racing spirit that traditionally characterizes every SL.
