Sellers description:
1977 Jaguar XJ12. With just 45,299 miles and box full of service records you will have no doubts as to the overall condition and meticulous care that went into owning this classic Jaguar. Originally sold out of nearby Burlingame , CA this Jaguar has stayed local for the past 33 years and shows no signs of age or excessive wear. The tan leather interior is soft and luxurious and the rear seats provide ample leg room even for the six-foot plus passengers. The door cards and headliner are in excellent condition, with the only noticeable blemish being the wood veneer dash that shows some slight age. The 5.3L V12 engine is smooth and quiet and produces 265 horsepower and 244 pounds of torque, which was plenty of power when combined with the three-speed automatic transmission (THM 400). A great example of a well maintained low mileage Jaguar that retains the classic jaguar look with room for four adults.

This 1977 Jaguar XJ12L was first delivered to Haron Motor Sales of Fresno, California, and it was acquired by the current owner in March 2011. The car is finished in brown over tan leather upholstery, and it is powered by a fuel-injected 5.3-liter V12 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes tinted windows, chromed 15″ wheels, automatic air conditioning, woodgrain dashboard trim, power windows, and power-assisted disc brakes. This XJ12L is now offered at no reserve on behalf of the current owner with a window sticker, service records, and a clean Arizona title.

The car is finished in Carriage Brown with gold pinstripes and chrome bumpers, mirrors, and trim. Exterior features include black bumper covers, dual fuel-filler caps, tinted windows, a leaper hood ornament, and dual exhaust outlets. Two paint chips on the driver-side rear door can be viewed in the gallery, and the automatic antenna does not work.

Chromed 15″ turbo-disc wheels wear Jaguar center caps and are mounted with 205/70 Pirelli P4000 tires. Power-assisted disc brakes and power rack-and-pinion steering were equipped from the factory.

The cabin features Biscuit leather upholstery on the seating surfaces along with tan carpets, floor mats, and woodgrain trim on the dashboard. Amenities include automatic air conditioning, power windows, a heated rear window, a lockable glovebox, an analog clock, and an AM/FM/8-track stereo. Cracks can be seen on the dashboard and driver-side window seals, and the seller states that the stereo does not work.

The two-spoke steering wheel fronts Smiths instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, water temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The five-digit odometer shows 56k miles, approximately 10k of which were added during current ownership. The speedometer cable was repaired in 2012, and true mileage is unknown.

The fuel-injected 5.3-liter V12 features electronic ignition and delivers power to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. The seller notes a transmission pan leak. The window sticker shows delivery to Haron Motor Sales of Fresno, California, as well as a total price of $18,259.
