1985 Jaguar XJ-S V12 Lynx Eventer for Sale in Germany

This 1985 Jaguar XJ-S V12 Lynx Eventer is a used car showing 112,482 km. It is equipped with an automatic transmission. The car is finished in Blue-grey metallic with a Black interior.

The British coachbuilder Lynx Engineering showed its first Eventer at Earls Court in August 1982 and sold it from 1983: an XJ-S coupé turned by hand into a shooting brake, with a longer roof, new side windows and a big tailgate. The seller counts 67 made up to 2002, just 18 with left-hand drive.

First registered in 1985, this is Lynx number 045, going by the plate in its glovebox. Blue-grey metallic outside, it has black leather and wood inside, the 5.3-litre V12 HE and an automatic gearbox. It has just had a major service and is registered in Germany.

The car is located in Hamburg, Germany.

The Jaguar XJ-S V12 HE uses the 5.3-litre Jaguar V12 in HE (High-Efficiency) form, with Michael May's Fireball combustion chambers, rated at 299 PS (220 kW), with a three-speed GM TH400 automatic gearbox driving the rear wheels. With the HE engine of July 1981 came five-spoke Starfish alloy wheels, chrome inserts on the bumpers and burr elm trim on the dashboard and doors.

At €98,500, it sits below the median of €99,500 for the 79 Jaguar advertised in Europe in 2026. 47% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Jaguar be bought in Germany and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Hamburg, Germany. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How does the mileage of this Jaguar compare?

112,482 km recorded, against a median of 33,476 km across the Jaguar advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Who is selling this Jaguar XJ-S V12, and how does a purchase work?

Thiesen, a professional dealer in Hamburg, Germany. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Jaguar XJ-S V12 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Hamburg, Germany, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.

Is this Jaguar XJ-S V12 still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Thiesen before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.
