Manufacturer description

Jaguar Cars of Coventry produced the Jaguar XJS between 1975 and 1996 with several modifications along the way.  Jaguar based the car on the XJ saloon and its stylish appearance included the innovative rear ‘flying buttresses’ aerodynamics and its starfish wheel hubs which appeared on later models. Powered by a 5.3 litre V12 engine, the 2-door XJ-S coupé, classed as a luxury sports car, came with the initial choice of either a manual or automatic gearbox. The automatic version achieved 60 mph in 7.6 seconds with a top speed of 143 mph. The manual option was subsequently phased out. From the 1990s a small modification included a slight model name change, omitting the hyphen between XJ and S and from then on, the Jaguar was known as the XJS.  

Oxford’s 1:76 scale replica is modelled on the 2-door coupé version registered RWL 677X from 1981.

It is decorated in a rich brown with a gold streak along the complete length of the streamlined car. The front spoiler, C pillars and bumper trims are black, relieved by silver to the front grille, window trims and the wheels.  Inside, the seats are moulded in a pale muted green with contrasting black dashboard. The model also features interesting rear light clusters in red and orange with two further red lights embedded into the rear bumper – just like the real thing.
