**A few problems with it but FAR too good to scrap**
Previously owned for 10years by Chris Palmer, XJS Racer and owner of Jag specialist XJ Motor Services, this is good and bad as it has had all the servicing it needed, including chain tensions, but bad because there is no service history with the car.
Only asking £1500, as a quick sale is desirable
