Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Prices are adjusted to the model's median mileage before comparing. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.
Marque analyst note
The Jaguar XJ-S in the Australian market is trading at a median of AUD $52,626, down 10.4 percent over the past twelve months—a clear depreciation signal that mirrors broader softness in the segment.
Transaction activity remains sparse, with only four sales tracked over the year, indicating a thin liquidity environment. This scarcity of buyers makes exit timing critical for current holders, as finding a willing purchaser at asking price cannot be assumed.
The XJ-S occupies the stable modern classic category with a collectibility score of 5, yet desirability remains low. This mismatch suggests the model appeals to a narrow cohort of enthusiasts and is unlikely to attract fresh capital from wider collector circles in the near term.
The three-year outlook projects a base decline to AUD $40,943—a further 22.2 percent erosion from current levels. Over five years, median values are expected to settle near AUD $37,861, representing a cumulative 28.1 percent reduction from today's pricing.
Current market momentum and weak demand fundamentals underpin these projections, with no active listings visible. Holders facing liquidity needs should consider the downtrend seriously; buyers entering now should be prepared to hold through a prolonged soft market.
