The Jaguar XJS for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the Jaguar XJS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page puts the Jaguar XJS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
What to check on the XJS
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Reading the spec sheet
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
What to expect from the XJS
Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.
Who rents the XJS
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
A longer test drive
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A test week in the XJS tells you more than any review. Try the XJS on your commute, then decide.
Money matters
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
Picking a year and a trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. The years table on this page shows where the XJS changed. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
When you know your dates
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Jaguar XJS from us first.
Ask us about the Jaguar XJS
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Jaguar XJS for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Jaguar XJS
Does CarmaCars sell the Jaguar XJS?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Jaguar XJS before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
