Kickdown's Take

by Art Georges

This XJSC 3.6 combines the elegant Targa silhouette with a true rarity: the coveted AJ6 inline-six engine and a 5-speed manual transmission. This combination was rarely ordered, making this example particularly interesting to connoisseurs, as it stands out for its sporty performance, reliability, and suitability for everyday use. With just 97,150 original kilometers on the odometer and the current owner having owned it since 2002, this British car is well-maintained and ready to drive. An H-license plate and TÜV certification valid through 2028 round out the package. Ideal for lovers of British elegance who are looking for something a bit more spirited to drive.

    Technik: Mit der Entwicklung des XJ-SC Serie 2 (offizielle Bezeichnung XJ-S Cabrio) wurde begonnen, nachdem Sir John Egan 1980 das Ruder bei Jaguar übernommen hatte. Der Dachaufbau mit den beiden herausnehmbaren Dachhälften, den feststehenden hinteren Scheiben und dem kleinen Faltdach wurde von der Aston-Martin-Tochter Tickford entwickelt. Jeder XJ-SC Serie 2 lief bei Jaguar als Coupé vom Band und wurde anschließend zu Tickford transportiert. Dort wurden das Dach und die Heckfinnen entfernt und der neue Dachaufbau montiert. Die Folge dieser aufwändigen Produktion waren niedrige Produktionszahlen und lange Wartelisten. Der XJ-SC Serie 2 wurde am 12. Oktober 1983 mit zwei Motorisierungen vorgestellt: dem neuen 3,6-Liter-Reihen-Sechszylinder und dem bekannten 5,3-Liter-V12. Ab dem 17. Juli 1985 wurde der 5.3 V12 mit dem H.E.-Motor ausgeliefert und die Montage des Fahrzeuges fand jetzt komplett bei Jaguar statt. In der Produktionszeit von ca. 4 Jahren wurden ca. 1150 Einheiten mit dem 3.6-Motor, davon 500 als LHD hergestellt, vom 5.3 V12-Modell wurden ca. 3800 Einheiten, davon 2950 als LHD produziert. LG Tom
