XJ12C For Sale – 2G51003

This is a good looking coupe that seems ready to drive off in. It is listed for $29,500 on Classic Investments’ website and currently listed on Ebay as well.

Except for the vinyl roof delete, this is a clean, stock looking coupe

V12 grill badges look to be in good shape, and my personal preference, it doesn’t have a hood leaper

Not exactly sure what the color is, but the paint looks to be in good condition from the pictures

reupholstered seats are a little different shade of tan than the originals. Would probably be less noticeable if the back panel that curves around the side was the same color as the seats

I like the after market sunroof – if it works and doesn’t leak, it should add to the already open air feel of the car with the pillarless windows down.

Not as much detailing attention put into the engine bay, but it looks stock and complete. Would recommend upgrading the ignition if it isn’t already the ReOpus board in the stock housing

Looks like the transmission could be leaking onto the exhaust – shouldn’t be difficult to fix that. Underside looks rust free in the pictures, even right under the rocker panels which typically have some surface rust

looks like newer shocks and recent brake work which should be a plus

This is located very close to me, so let me know if you would like me to check it out in person for you.

Update

I did get to see this one in person. Weather was bad, so I didn’t drive it, but did start it up.

The good:
– Started right up from cold and had really good oil pressure
– Injectors tested and some replaced
– New injector wiring harness and fuel hoses
– Replacement seat leather was high quality and foam was in good shape
– Comes with some extra leather so there might be enough to recover the front seat backs to match the rest of the seat.
– Good driver quality gold repaint (car was originally red)
– Handbrake holds the car
– The front window switches (forgot to try the back) and sunroof work

Areas for work
– Heater didn’t work (I didn’t check anything so it could be something easy like a fuse, but since none of the fan speeds worked its probably the control knob micro switch and not the over complicated relay that can be replaced with standard relays)
– New seat cover fitting could be improved
– Some small cracks in the dash wood veneer
– Some visible wear in the carpets
