Over the past 3 years we have sold over 1000 vehicles on ebay and decided that we would take a new approach to the advertising. Let's face it, when you buy a car on ebay the main thing you are lacking is the ability to test drive. Our new approach to the marketplace will be to give you a "virtual test drive" so to speak. Rather than a fancy description we are going to keep it simple. We are going to pair a description of our test drive and mechanic evaluation with a list of the pro's and con's of this particular car. These will be based on years of buying vehicles and knowing what to look for when purchasing. Please remember above all that it is IMPOSSIBLE for a used car to be perfect so any seller that doesn't list flaws is just not being thorough, we are taking the guess work out of online buying. Please also remember that we are doing our best to describe them well but if you have a specific question just ask and we will respond promptly. We also would appreciate your input on this type of description so we know whether to stick with it or go back to the old style. Thanks!

Vision Custom Cars is pleased to offer you this 1989 Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible. You can own this car for a mere fraction of its original price.

This was a car I purchased as a project for my shop in their off time. Unfortunately we got to busy and just don't have the time to get to it so I am selling it the way it is.

I purchased the car with a miss in the engine. No knocks or taps, just a miss. Other than that the car drives out fine. We never got a chance to go over it in great detail. I cleaned it up and tested out the options and everything seemed to work just fine. The top looks to have been replaced recently and the paint was also done not to long ago. Cosmetically it needs the front and trunk carpet and front seats.

The Good:

solid car - the right color combo - nice paint - everything works - priced low! - all the toys - top looks good - good wheels and tires - We located the trim ring that is missing in the pics so that will be on the car when it sells

The Bad:

small dent on front of hood - seats need reupholstering - front carpet is pretty worn, trunk carpet is missing some sections of carpet - engine runs rough

If you have any additional questions please let me know!


Give us a call at 609-228-3100 or e-mail and we can answer any questions you might have. This car qualifies for up to a 4 Year Warranty! Please be sure to read the complete ad as well as the terms and conditions and be sure you can meet them before bidding. Your bid/offer constitutes acceptance of our terms and conditions. Do not submit a Best Offer just to "see if we will take it". If we accept then you are bound to our terms and conditions. Our prices are always extremely market competitive to offer you a great value. Thank You for your interest in our ad.

HOW WE CREATE OUR CONDITION REPORT

COSMETIC:
When you walk around a car on a lot you tend to think about several things based on the appearance and condition of the items you see. Obviously nobody walks around a car and says "that fender looks excellent" and if they do, what does that mean? Below I have have put the terms used in the condition report in a more user friendly context. Imagine walking around this car with a buddy and sharing opinions, if I were that buddy then this is what I would say.

-Excellent: "wow, I just can't believe how clean this car is for its age"
-Good: "for being ____ years old this is in really nice shape and was obviously cared for"
-Average: "well its not new but for a ___ year old car this is  no more wear than I'd expect"
-Poor: "I think this part will definitely need some attention to get it to where I'd like it to be"


Mechanical:
When you go to a lot and drive a car for the first time you immediately notice things about it. "Does the engine idle smoothly", "does the transmission shift right", "do the brakes feel good", "is the exhaust quiet", "does the car feel tight or does it wander and rattle"? These are the questions that go through my mind as I drive each car. Again, please imagine that I am the guy you are riding with during your test drive and when looking at the condition report, these are the things I would say.

-Excellent: "this is amazing how great this is, obviously the part has either been recently replaced or well cared for throughout the life of the car"
-Good: "this area of the car feels good and definitely won't need any attention in the near future"
-Average: "for the age, I would expect this type of wear and most likely you will need to give it some minor attention shortly after purchase"
-Poor: "this is something that will need work before the car is able to be driven daily"

The only items that don't really follow this guide are brakes and tires. If we rate them excellent it means we just changed them. Good means they have more than 50% life left and anything less than that and we just replace them prior to sale or clearly note it in the auction.
