The video below starts immediately when the XJS is being reviewed. There are 3 of them, only the first two are mentioned. The 3rd one is however visible as well but not mentioned while it's a special one, it's a Jubilee edition by Guy Salmon

The Burberry Look

Someone posted this series on Instagram and I now noticed there is another advert with a XJS as a prop.
I will upload the entire series on this blog just for the records. 

German advert

 

Dutch advert

A nice one for the Dutch audience, even in Dutch these adverts are subtle and sophisticated. It must be a late advert from the early nineties as they refer to the year of 88 and 90.  

Advert : From a heritage of inspired design and engineering, comes the best Jaguar ever built

Marktplaats using XJS as a prop

Not a exiting post but I noticed lately the Dutch Marktplaats is using a XJS as a prop on their TV commercial and online marketing. So I made this screenshot for the records only.

Apparently I was not only the one checking on the number plates for these cars. This link identified the correct plate numbers:
