If its an early XJS and a manual it will be very rare, if its an auto not worth much. XJS's are right at the bottom of the depreciation and you can buy a very tidy taxed and mot'd for a couple of grand. The biggest problem with any old jag is the restoration can cost a lot more than the car is worth.
E-bay probably your best bet, other than that you could advertise in the Jaguar Enthusiests Club magazine.
Hope this helps.

My folks had a 4.0 XJS Convertible which was immaculate and they got all of about £5k for it. Huge amount of car for no money. If only it went more than 20 miles without something going wrong....
Eventually they'll become classic again (the convertibles at least) but god knows when
