The 1975 launch of the XJ-S disappointed many car enthusiasts, as it was not a replacement for the iconic E-type. Its design lacked excitement, and its interior was uninspiring. However, over nearly 20 years, Jaguar transformed the car into a much-admired grand tourer. The introduction of the XJ-S HE in 1981 marked a turning point, restoring hope and improving the car's appeal.
This book provides a comprehensive history of the XJ-S, including a timeline of key events and the car's evolution from the XJ27 prototype. It also features appendices with information on identification and serial numbers, UK showroom prices over the years, and annual sales in the US.
