Finally,  vehicle is BACK UP FOR SALE !  I am selling for a friend.
Earlier I stopped the auction because owner didn't have title.  Since car is registered and owned in the State of Maine,  they DO NOT ISSUE a title for any car older than 1995.

This 1987 Jaguar XJ6 will come with a BILL OF SALE ,  CURRENT MAINE REGISTRATION ,  and a letter from the State of Maine to give to the division of motor vehicles and title and register in YOUR STATE.

Now,  The car-

This car is owned by a Florida snowbird.   They sold their Florida home and no longer have need for the car.     The car has not had much use in the last few years.   Needs to be driven more and enjoyed again !

THEIR LOSS ,  YOUR GAIN !  SOLD TO FIRST COME FIRST SERVE !     I can not store car any longer !   MAKE AN OFFER,   but PLEASE don't insult me..

I've been in possession of the car for a few weeks now.   Here are the things I noticed wrong with the car. But please keep in mind I am NO EXPERT,  and I know nothing about Jaguars..


FIRST,  THE NOT SO GOOD:

-Car idles rough when first started,  for about 20 seconds.  Then it runs perfect.
       I wiggled some plug wires when it was idling rough,  and it seemed to change the rough idle.   My guess is it needs a new distributor cap and wires.

-While in car and idling,  I could hear a faint tapping I thought was coming from engine or passenger side.  I traced it to the actual fuel rail and line going to back of car.  When I grabbed the line behind rear tire,  I could actually feel it tapping in my hand.   So the tapping must be the fuel pump ?

-A/C does not get cold.    I checked fuses and the basics,  and all seems fine.  Owner said it worked last summer.  Possibly lost a charge due to it sitting.  Not sure.    Blower and controls work fine.

-Car has 2 gas tanks.   1 sending unit for gas gauge does not work (passenger side tank).  The gas tank works and all,   but you can't tell if its full or empty.  I went to fill the tank thinking it was empty,  and its full.   Guess it would make a good backup tank :)

-Oil pressure gauge on dash doesn't show a reading.   Either the gauge is bad,  or a bad sending unit.

-Exterior :  Car has good paint,  but not great.   There is a noticeable clearcoat issue on hood (SEE PICS).  Right above rear passenger tire,  there is a small ding.    Normal paint chips here and there for this age car.  Some areas of clearcoat have a 'webbing' or hairline scratching.

-Interior :  front floor mats need replaced.   Some light cracking in faux wood on dash. Front seats not ripped but have some stitching missing and show wear

NOW THE GOOD !:
-Exterior-  All chrome parts are near perfect condition.     All windows work 100% .  Sunroof opens as should.   Exterior motorized radio antenna works 100%.  hood and trunk work 100%.  Doors shut solid.

-Interior: Headliner had been replaced, still good. New upper dash.  Radio works (don't have a tape to test cassette tape deck).  All other knobs and buttons seem to work. Electric drivers seat works.

-Engine: Runs good.   No unusual noises from motor.  Transmission shifts smooth and the car rides down the road great. Has not used oil or left a spot in my driveway or garage either !    Hoses, brake lines, etc. are all in good shape.

-The car just, looks, good !!       I already have 3 vehicles.   I'd keep it myself but have no room !

-I have a lot of paperwork with the car.   Including a parts manual and service manual.  MANY service records and repair records  (probably all of them) since new,   even the original window sticker.

-according to paperwork,  It had new shocks,  A/C converted to new coolant, water pump, shocks, brakes and exhaust all have been done within the last 30k miles. 


Well,    that's all I got.    Please check out the 2 videos I took of the car running Below!

ALSO LISTED LOCALLY !     WILL NOT SHIP and MUST BE PICKED UP WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF AUCTION END !   

** SOLD AS IS CONDITION- NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED-    vehicle described to best of my knowledge **

Seven-figure cars highlight day one of RM's Monterey auction

Sat, 17 Aug 2013

RM Auctions is one of several houses holding auctions during the Monterey weekend, and Friday night's festivities got quite pricey. Seven-figure vehicles were not at all uncommon during the first day of the two-day event, with the 1953 Ferrari 375 MM Spider, seen above, crossing the block for $9,075,000.
Other big earners included a pair of rare Ferraris, a 1950 166 MM Barchetta and a 1955 750 Monza Spider, which took $3,080,000 and $4,070,000, respectively. Outside of the red Italians, a 1939 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special captured $7,480,000 while a stunning, color-appropriate 1955 Jaguar D-Type took $3,850,000. We've got images of these vehicles, and a few other stunning examples of last night's auction, in the gallery above.
Thought it seems impossible, tonight's auction is expected to see even more high-dollar action. The winner of the 2012 Pebble Beach Concours, a 1928 Mercedes-Benz 680S Torpedo Roadster is expected to command over $10 million. Also crossing the block will be a car we reported on a few weeks back - a supremely rare 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder. One of only 10 in the world, it's expected to take anywhere from $14 to $17 million when it hits the stage tonight.

2016 Jaguar XE pounces on the Parisian port

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

It's been about five years since Jaguar discontinued the misguided X-Type and exited the compact luxury sedan market, but today marks the British automaker's re-entry into the segment with the public debut of the all-new XE.
Pitted against the likes of the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the new Jaguar XE is based on an all-new aluminum architecture that will underpin many new felines to follow, and packs a new family of four-cylinder engines. That is, aside from the range-topping XE S pictured above, with the super-six borrowed from the F-Type.
Conservatively styled but elegant and uniquely Jaguar, the XE isn't set to arrive Stateside until 2016. So unless you're planning a trip overseas (with a stop at a Jaguar showroom on the itinerary), our gallery of live shots from the floor of the Paris Motor Show here at the Porte de Versailles may be the best look you'll be getting at Coventry's latest for the next couple of years.

Watch the trailer for Jaguar's short film staring the F-Type and Damian Lewis

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Jaguar continues to think well outside of the box when it comes to marketing it's new F-Type, now furthering plans for a short film which highlights the sexy roadster. Desire, featuring Damian Lewis (star of the hit series Homeland), Jordi Mollà (unforgettable in Bad Boys II) and Shannyn Sossamon (that girl you had a crush on for like a month in 2002 after you rented A Knight's Tale), Jaguar is clearly pulling out all the stops for this one. Well, nearly all the stops anyway ­- the "Ridley Scott Associates" billing isn't quite the same has having the man himself, if we're splitting hairs.
The short video below is still just a trailer for Desire - the full film will make its debut sometime in April, we're told. The sketched out plotlines tell us that Lewis' character Clark, "...delivers cars for a living, running into trouble after a chance encounter with a mysterious, young woman (Sossamon) in the middle of a lawless desert." The car looks good, at any rate.
Call us crazy, but the Desire trailer feels an awful lot like a spoof on the cool-but-overly-serious short films that BMW has done in this vein, already. Maybe we're just being cynical? Tell us what you think in comments after watching the clip.
