This is a very rare example of an early left-hand drive Jaguar V12 Coupé. The car was built on 4 February 1975 in Brown Lane, Coventry. After production, the engine was found to be non-functional, so the vehicle remained with De Long Motors Ltd. in London. Later, the car was exported to Sweden, where it was sold to a company manager on April 12, 1976. During its ownership, the car covered only 19,000 km. In 1980 the vehicle was sold to Bert Carlsson, a prominent member of the Jaguar Owners Club. After Carlsson's death in 2003, his daughter Helena inherited the car, who sold it to Jaguar enthusiast Jonas Kjellstrand in Stockholm in 2004. In 2008 the car was purchased by us and imported to the Netherlands. Since then, the car has been used sporadically and has been stored in our showroom in good condition since 2019. A new fuel pump was installed in 2018. All APK documents are present, as well as an extensive archive of invoices, articles, advertisements, and the history of the previous owners.
The 1976 Jaguar XJ-12C Coupé is a rare and classic coupe, powered by a powerful 5.3-liter V12 engine with carburetors, good for 254 hp. This left-hand drive (LHD) version is one of the early models of the XJ-C series, which makes the vehicle extra special.
Produced in limited numbers, the XJ-12C stands out for its elegant design and the combination of luxury and performance that was the hallmark of Jaguar at the time.
The coupe was a symbol of luxury and power in its day, and that makes it a sought-after classic for enthusiasts of British cars and V12 performance today.
