Default Is the price right for this Jaguar XJSC HESS & EISENHARDT?

Jaguar XJSC HESS & EISENHARDT I'm looking for was built in January 1988, it's black colored with cream colored interior. 120.000 Km. Soft top should be substitute. The car was completely repainted same years ago. They ask me € 15.900. The car was imported in Italy from US several years ago and has Italian documentation. It is defined by the current owner in good mechanical condition without visible rust. What do you think about? Is the price correct? is it possible to buy original spare parts? thanks in advance for your replays.

Prices in continental Europe are higher than in the UK. That price, in the UK, would be for a very good car with full documentation and history.
The H&E convertible was a factory-approved, but non-factory modified vehicle, licensed as a stop-gap while Jaguar produced its own full convertible version. It has some specialised non-factory parts (eg fuel tank and pump system, hood mechanism) but is otherwise mainly standard. It has some rarity value, maybe, but at that price in your place I would want to be 100% sure it had no rust. If you would like to know what to look for, rust-wise, post again
