        You have two Photo Albums created for you on this site, it would be great if you could add a photo or two of your Cabriolet for all members to see.

          Hi I just purchased my car. It is black with magnolia interior. It is a V12. I am located in Mystic, CT USA It is my 4th Jag. Previous cars were a Mk 10 that was featured in the movie “Begin Again” and a 1994 XJ6 Vanden Plas. Currently have a 1961 Mk2 and now the Cabriolet. I will post some pics shortly. VIN ends with 141174.

          A few questions: 1) What is the little tab at the center of windshield frame that flips up and down- a wind diverter? 2) Were these cars manufactured by Jaguar or modified by a carriage builder like what BMW did with Baur (had one of those too)??

            Hi Joshua Lyons

            Do you mean this :

            Photo 894
            Photo 895
            Photo 896

            Yes it is an air deflector for when you have the Targa panel out and the rear hood down.

            The XJ-SC Cabriolet were built by Jaguar – there’s a brief article Here about them.

            Cheers,

            Laurence
