Just bought a rather nice 91 xjs with 32500 miles on the clock - Japanese import through Seymour and Pope .Arrived with only 1 key and whilst ebay has people who copy transponder ignition keys I am not sure whether the 91 has a transponder and I can’t see anybody advertising keys for this year. Any ideas ? Thanks

She looked stunning on their website.

Japanese spec's cars could well be different to UK ones, if they don't know what sort of key you need you could try someone like SNG Barrat.

Thanks I have emailed them .
Car is a stunner and surprisingly comfortable on the 400 mile journey home . Got a rear view camera incorporated in the mirror and a decent radio with blue tooth phone capability built in and it’s as good as a modern car but more distinctive.

Pretty sure XJS never had transponder keys.
Best thing to do is buy a key with a transponder. Get it cut. Try it.
Then if needs be get it programmed.
You might need to find someone with a PDU !!

Either way at least you will have a spare door and ignition key that will get you in the car and unlock the steering.
