The first XJ-S appeared in 1975 as a 1976 model, initial design work was the done by Malcolm Sayer, but after his death in 1970 it was completed by the in-house Jaguar design team, headed by Doug Thorpe.
Power came from the Jaguar V12 petrol engine with a choice of a manual or automatic transmission, but the manual was soon dropped The first series of XJ-S cars had a Borg-Warner Model 12 transmission with a cast-iron case and a bolt-on bell-housing. In 1977 GM Turbo-Hydramatic 400 transmissions were fitted.
The TH400 transmission was an all-aluminium alloy case with an integrated non-detachable bell-housing. When leaving the factory the XJ-S originally fitted Dunlop SP Super E205/70VR tyres on 15 × 6K alloy wheels, though British police forces would upgrade from this factory standard and fit a higher performing Michelin tyre.
The car was launched in the wake of the fuel crisis, restricting the market for a 5.3-litre V12 grand tourer, and at first the styling was not received well. German authorities refused to give the model type approval, citing the rear buttress as a restriction to vision.
Jaguar did seize promotional opportunities with the television series The New Avengers and Return of the Saint. The New Avengers and Corgi models produced a model of The Saints car.

The 1st Series XJS was replaced from July 1981 with a Series II version

Seoul Korea vintage VHS cover art for Israeli cult teen pic "Hot Bubblegum" (1981) - "Cunningly Linguistic Teen Pix" by moreska

Seoul Korea vintage VHS cover art for Israeli cult teen pic "Hot Bubblegum" (1981) - "Cunningly Linguistic Teen Pix"

This rare Korea Media release of "Hot Bubblegum" (1981) goes under the Korean title "Growing Up II". Helmed by the cult director Boaz Davidson, the pic sometimes played under the title "Lemon Popsicle II" for its domestic Israel release. Set in Tel Aviv in the 1950s, the film features plenty of bawdy teen antics and romantic entanglements. The same director gained fame in the US for his Cannon studio cult hit "The Last American Virgin" (1982), itself a remake of the auteur's own "Lemon Popsicle". Popular tape back in the day, so rarely seen in good condition.

Seoul Korea vintage VHS cover art for classic mid-century flick "Watusi!" (1959) aka "King Solomon's Mines 2" - "Craftily Retitled"

This extremely rare BPC release of the classic African adventure "Watusi!" (1959) goes under the title "King Solomon's Mines" in Hangeul, inviting confusion with a 1985 Cannon flick by the same name, itself craftily released to cash in on the popularity of the Raiders/Indiana Jones franchise. Pic got a brief release under its original "Watusi!" title on the Warner Archive DVD label.
