Car has a buy it now price of $79,900. Note the car has a Pennsylvania plate.

Sellers description:
1971 JAGUAR XKE V-12 CONVERTIBLE

GORGEOUS OLDE ENGLISH WHITE WITH FULL BLACK LEATHER INTERIOR AND BLACK TOP

EXTREMELY RARE 1971 CONVERTIBLE WITH HIGH COMPRESSION (9:1) V-12, NUMBERS MATCHING MOTOR

1 OF 101 V-12's BUILT WITH LHD FOR 1971

1 OF 15 BUILT WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

1 OF 3 BUILT IN OLDE ENGLISH WHITE

IN ADDITION, WHILE RARE EVEN IN 1971, THIS CAR IS ONE OF ONLY 25 NOW KNOWN TO EXIST IN LHD, AND ONE OF 2 NOW KNOWN TO EXIST IN OLDE ENGLISH WHITE

THIS IS CURRENTLY THE HIGHEST (#83) NUMBERED CAR CURRENTLY KNOWN TO EXIST

WITH THE RARITY OF THE CARS, THE RARITY OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, AND THE RARITY OF OLDE ENGLISH WHITE, THIS MAY TRULY BE A ONE OF A KIND CAR

BY OUR UNDERSTANDING, THIS IS THE FIRST 1971 V-12 CONVERTIBLE TO BE OFFERED ON THE MARKET IN ALMOST A YEAR!!!

FACTORY OPTIONS INCLUDE:
*AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
*FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING
*FULL SET OF WIRE WHEELS
*ANSA EXHAUST

THIS BEAUTY RUNS AND DRIVES JUST AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS - SPECTACULAR! THE TOP IS CORRECT AND LOOKS TO BE ORIGINAL AS DOES THE BOOT. THE INTERIOR IS IN GOOD BUT NOT CONCOURS CONDITION, AND COULD USE UPDATING TO MAKE THE CAR PERFECT, BUT IT IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE AND SHOWS A VERY GOOD PATINA. THE ARMREST HAS BEEN REPLACED AND THE COLOR IS A SLIGHTLY LIGHTER TONE THAN THE REST OF THE INTERIOR.

IT APPEARS THAT THE 62K MILES SHOWING ON THE ODOMETER ARE ORIGINAL

THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF ANY RUST OR REPAIR AND THE STEERING AND SUSPENSION ARE EXCELLENT!

9 Oct 2006 car back on eBay with buy it now price of £7000, no proper listing details, no European photos, no payment details except a hotmail address. Looks like a scam.

VIN number should be 1S20083BW, since it is an automatic.
