    Technik: Die Entwicklung des Convertible begann im Mai 1985. Mit der Herstellung der Prototypen wurde Karmann in Osnabrück beauftragt. Für die Stabilität des Cabrios musste ca. ein Drittel der Karosserieteile überarbeitet werden. Aufwändig war auch die Neukonstruktion der Motor- und Getriebelagerung, von der 30 unterschiedliche Versionen getestet wurden. Erste Prototypen wurden ab Anfang 1987 getestet. Karmann war auch mit der Entwicklung des Stoffverdecks beauftragt. Die Besonderheit ist der elektrohydraulische Antrieb, der das aufwändig gedämmte Faltdach mit der beheizten Glasscheibe in 12 Sekunden öffnet. Im Februar 1988 wurde der XJ-S 5.3 V12 Convertible Serie 2 auf dem Genfer Automobil-Salon erstmals der Weltöffentlichkeit vorgestellt. Von diesem Modell wurden ca. 13.000 Einheiten produziert. LG Tom
