Warm inside my car

Not sure I understand your problem......
You will not get anything like "cold" air inside an XJS unless your A/C is working. The car generates so much heat that there is no cold air getting in to the cockpit (It all gets heated by the car), even if it is cold outside.
The climate control system will direct air to the feet and to the screen most of the time. It only directs air to the center vent when you set the temp to max A/C.
Not having A/C is one issue, not having the center vent working is another issue. Which one do you have ? (or are you trying to ask about a different issue ?)

First warm up the car, the aircon will not start at all until the car is warmish. Your car should have the Delanaire mark III unit. Set the RH knob to auto (nine o clock position). If it is a mark III, the LH knob should pull out with a click. This puts the system into manual override and should give you full cold. See if it does.
Secondly, the LH knob can be pushed in and set to full cold, 12 o clock position, (full anticlockwise). This should produce cold air. Does it?
Thirdly, the RH knob if turned to 12 o clock (full clockwise) should give you full hot air and full fan through the defrost vents at the bottom of the screen. Does it?
In auto mode the fan speed is selected by the system automatically. As someone mentioned, the slide control varies the proportion of cold going to the upper vents a bit.

Yep, it's a common problem on the XJS. Even though thats not working, you should still be able to get air to come out of the center vents (even though its not cooled)...... does this happen if you set the temperature to full cold ?
