Default What is it worth?

My son has been storing and occasionally driving my 1994 XJS Convertible for the last couple of years, and as he is moving, will no longer be able to do so. I am reluctant to have it sit outside here in the Pacific Northwest, so I am considering selling it. With 170,000 on the odometer and its history of being a daily driver it certainly is no “trailer queen”, but it runs well, uses no oil, and still turns heads. Can someone give me an idea of what it is worth? Thank you.

some pictures would help judge a value but givin the millage assuming that it still looks decent with some minor cosmetic wear and tear and you say its mechanically sound id say 3500-4k i think the millage is going to scare a lot of people off. still lots of low millage nice cars out there for 6-10k

Thank you Ezrider. I was thinking 5-6k, Funny thing is, this car has has been the most reliable and trouble-free car I have ever owned. Not what one would expect from a Jag, right? I did burn a valve a few thousand miles ago, but it was easily addressed and the mechanic said that the AJ6 engine would easily do 200,000 miles

If the car is only worth 3-4 thousand, I think I will park it outside and enjoy driving it. Thanks.

Even better. I drive mine year round, ocassional touchups to the rubber undercoat are necessary but otherwise rust free after 4 years in Vancouver rain.

I thought that Canadian rain was too polite to rust anything anyway?
