Default 1990 XJ-S Conv w/low mileage value?

I have a customer that has a 1990 Jaguar XJ-S V12 Convertible with less than 8,000 miles (about 7,800 miles) that is thinking of selling and wants me to give an opinion of value.

The car was her mother's (since passed away) and it has been in the family since new.
I don't normally buy/sell cars so I don't know the current market for these cars.

She said her brother got some of the Rolls Royces/Bentleys and she got the Jaguar and a few other cars.

I did service the A/C a year or two ago (added refrigerant) but she said it worked for a while and then stopped cooling.
She only drives it locally in good weather with the top down so she does not care about the A/C.

I think I remember the car being light blue with a black top.

Guess I should go take a few pics and get the paint/trim codes for better info.

If anyone has some comparable cars for pricing I would appreciate the info.
I'm guessing well over $20,000 because it has always been kept inside out of the weather.

Check out prior auction results on Bring A Trailer. I know a few ultra-exceptional XJSs have gone through BaT in the last couple of years so that might give you some idea.

Cheers

Thanks
I just found a 'sorta' comparable car in the DFW area that is about 40 miles away.

I have few customers that are members of the local Jaguar Club so they might be able to find buyers?

My brother was not interested since he bought his F Type.

I was looking at some 2020 BaT sales for ultra nice XJSs. The highest I saw was about $21k...but I went back only about 6 months. Lots in the $17k-20k range.

Cheers
