1972 Jaguar XJ6 This is a three owner 1972 Jaguar
XJ6. The first owner was a military gentleman that purchased this car new in
England in June of 1972. The car has been in Colorado since 1973. On May 20,
2004 it was sold to a local man who owned it for the last 10 years. Interior -- The dash is in perfect condition. The wood package was upgraded by Madera Concepts to Carpathian Burled hardwood, which is the same type they use in Bentleys. This upgrade was almost $900, 20 years ago! The seats and door panels were recovered / customized in the early 90s. They are in near perfect condition and really stand out against the maroon paint. The carpet and mats are in great condition, with the exception of the driver’s area. There are no holds or ware spots, just discoloration – difficult to see because it is under the dash area. The entire inside has been steam cleaned. The car was upgraded with an aftermarket cruise control system, but I have never tried to use it. All of the glass is perfect and the windshield has new wiper blades. Body – The car was repainted in 1990 and you can tell from the pictures that this car has always been garaged. In my opinion, the paint is 8.5 out of 10. There are a few chips/dings on the passenger side and the driver’s side wheel well. All have been touched up and are barely noticeable. The paint has had a three stage clean-up which consists of compounding, polishing and waxing – it is very smooth and looks great. The previous owner pulled the car too far forward in his garage and bumped the lawnmower, so there is a dent in the nose just above the grill (see picture). All of the chrome appears to be original and is in good condition. I believe the exhaust was replaced during the engine conversion. The resonators are starting to gets holes in them, but they have been patched – the mufflers and the remainder of the exhaust is in good condition. There are no holes or rust in the bottom of the car. Included in the sale is a High-end California car cover that costs over $400. HVAC – At some point, the original owner had a larger AC unit installed
for the back passengers with a separate control. The vents are installed in the
rear deck lid area between the speakers. The system appears to still run off of
the old R-12 Freon (not R-134a) which has not been pressure tested to check for
leaks. I haven’t had the need for it since it doesn't get that hot in Colorado. Suspension/Tires -- The suspension is in great condition -- the
shocks are not brand new but still function well. The four tires on the car
have plenty of tread. The car also comes with two spare tires and the wheels
are in great condition. Spare Parts - this car comes with an
extensive amount of spare parts, including extra belts, wipers, CB, original XJ
letters, trunk trim (still in the original bag). I am also including the Haynes
repair manual, the factory repair manual and original factory service handbook
with case. The car also has a 2'x3' copy of the wiring diagram. I even have the
original sales brochure which comes with the car! **E-mail me for a link to Photobucket with 55 detailed photos. I'm sure there is something I’m forgetting, so please e-mail me with any questions. Thanks for looking! THERE IS NO

Motor Trend pits Aston V12 Vantage S against Jaguar XKR-S GT in battle of the Brits
Fri, 20 Dec 2013With the recent increase in higher-performance versions of already high-performance vehicles, like Mercedes-Benz and its AMG Black Series, the public is now gaining even greater access to speed and maneuverability. Two of the most recent sports cars to get their wicks turned up include the Jaguar XKR-S GT and the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S.
Both of these cars are the pinnacles of their lines, with the Jag lording over the XKR-S, XKR and XK while the Aston rules over the standard V8 Vantage S and V8 Vantage. Motor Trend has opted to pit the two rivals together for some thorough testing, and it just happened to bring along a few video cameras to capture all the action.
There's nearly 19 minutes of super hot sports car action below, so scroll down and enjoy.
This mule is the first evidence Jaguar is working on a 3 Series fighter
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Rumors of an entry-level, BMW 3 Series-fighting Jaguar sedan have been floating around for quite some time, but thanks to our intrepid spy photographers, we now have visible proof that such a model is, in fact, in the works.
Despite this tester's XF fittings, it's clear that what lies beneath is an entirely different beast. The doors have been shortened, roofline adjusted, rear deck lopped off and exhaust replaced, giving us a better idea of the new sedan's smaller dimensions and details. The new Jag, which may be dubbed "XS," is expected to ride on Jaguar's PLA (Premium Lightweight Architecture) platform, touting weight-saving materials that should do a lot to keep overall heft to a minimum. Both turbocharged four- and supercharged six-cylinder powertrains are expected to be on tap.
Codenamed X760, the new small sedan will reportedly hit the market in 2015. Earlier reports have indicated that a new crossover - Jag's first ever - riding on the same platform will arrive shortly thereafter, so that suggests that the platform will be fitted with all-wheel drive as well.
Jaguar names its 3 Series-fighter XE, packs it with Ingenium engines
Tue, 04 Mar 2014Jaguar is committed to emerging from the fringes of the luxury car market and into the mainstream. Just take a look at where it was a couple of decades ago and where it is now: In the 1980s, it had essentially two product lines, the XJ sedan and XJ-S coupe/convertible), and now it's got the XK coupe and convertible, the XJ sedan, the XF sedan and wagon and the F-Type coupe and roadster. But it's not about to stop there.
Coventry knows that if it's going to take on the German and Japanese heavyweights, it's going to need a compact sports sedan, and it's not about to repeat the mistake that was the X-Type. To that end, it's long been rumored to be developing a rival to the likes of the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class - it just hasn't given us much to go on. But that changes right here and now.
At the Geneva Motor Show, Jaguar has confirmed the imminent arrival of its new sports sedan, and along with the teaser image above, has given us some juicy details. For one, it'll be called the XE - fitting nicely alongside its big brothers the XF and XJ in Jaguar's growing sedan lineup. For another, it'll hit markets overseas in 2015 and arrive here in the United States in 2016.
