The Jaguar XJS Club celebrates the 50th anniversary of the XJS (1975–2025) with a remarkable timeline of six cars spanning the full 21-year production run. Initially controversial as the successor to the iconic E-Type, the XJS proved pivotal in Jaguar’s revival during the 1980s, remaining in production for over two decades as a coupe, cabriolet, and convertible, powered by straight-six and V12 engines. With over 115,000 produced, it remains a highly sought-after classic with a passionate following.

On display are six standout examples: Jaguar XJS Pre-HE Coupe 1981, XJS Cabriolet 1986, XJS HE Lister 1982 (a fully nut-and-bolt restored performance-modified car), XJS Convertible 1990, XJS Facelift Coupe 1996, and XJS Facelift Convertible 1995. Highlights include the Lister XJS, modified in 1986 with Lister’s signature body kit, suspension lowering, engine upgrades, and a 5-speed manual gearbox, recently restored over 4,000 hours.

The stand celebrates Original Meets Modified, showcasing the elegance of factory XJS cars alongside bespoke, high-performance Lister specials – a must-see for Jaguar enthusiasts and classic car lovers alike.
