I bought this XJ6 for my retirement a few years ago from a collector. I used it very sparingly, registered it for my business to drive a few clients, and always garaged it. It had been in storage for more than a year now and I have had it out to drive twice this spring. I have driven it 400 miles in 5 years. I just had it out and it is running great and shifting very smoothly. It drives very nicely. The paint is good. and the body is straight . Very small bubbling on the top, over the drivers door from condensation but nothing extreme. Dunlop tires, and exhaust are good. All electrics and gauges work fine except that one of the two SU fuel pumps needs a tap or the points cleaned as it is not currently clicking. Interior needs a good leather cleaning, the headliner is sagging down and should be replaced, as should the drivers seat pan diaphram, as the pan does sag. Chrome is good, no rust per say. Great oil pressure and a smooth engine. The dash wood is all very nice.

The negatives - there is a hole up at the very front of the drivers floor where the hoist lifts go and should have a piece of new metal fitted. This is a very common flaw with these cars and very common. It is not bad now and can be repaired with very little effort. I would also oil spray the bottom of the car to prevent any future rusting, as it is clean now and this will retain that. The floor boards are all solid. The small bubbling on the top I mentioned prior. The headliner is falling down. It is the original material and not ripped. It can be glued back up. The air conditioning is not blowing cold. The fan cuts in but I would say it needs a Freon charge , as the compressor is not kicking in.

This was the first of the XJ series and the prettiest of them all!

I hate to part with this car but I am just not driving it enough and w2ant to pass it on to someone that will drive it and give it the tlc it deserves.

I am auctioning at no reserve, to the highest bidder.

Sir William Lyons, CEO of Jaguar, personally chose this as his choice for the best of all the Jag saloons.

Are you the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R-S?

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

It's no secret that Jaguar is working on a fixed-roof version of the F-Type roadster, but now it looks like it's also developing a high-performance model for said coupe. Captured sharpening its claws at the Nürburgring, this F-Type Coupe prototype could very well be an R-S or even a more track-ready R-S GT variant.
Our biggest clue suggesting the latter are its massive brake rotors with bright-yellow calipers - similar pieces are also found on the recently introduced XKR-S GT. This would make sense, since a report in May said that Jaguar is looking to create a full line of R-S GT models in a similar fashion as the Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series. Missing from this prototype, though, are the telltale aero add-ons we seen on the XKR-S GT - go-faster bits like the latter's front fascia winglets and rear wing, though this model is obviously still being developed. Regardless of what this new grippier, quicker kitty is called, we say "Yes, please."

2018 Jaguar E-Pace (almost) revealed in new spy photos

Tue, Jun 20 2017

Each time we've seen the Jaguar E-Pace out testing, it has been covered in a variety of fake plastic body parts to obscure the actual body. Finally, Jaguar relaxed its camouflage campaign, giving us the chance to see the car's bodywork almost entirely exposed. The only disguise this car was wearing was a form-fitting vinyl wrap. The test car in question confirms a number of our suspicions. The rear hatch is, indeed, extremely raked, which gives the vehicle a sportier look, though will surely reduce cargo capacity. If this crossover was coming from one of the German automakers, they would probably call this a "coupe." The front and rear fenders are also rather exaggerated, and the rear haunches are accented by a rising window line that ends in a pinched-off quarter window. The nose and tail of the crossover are pretty standard Jaguar. The layout of the lights and grilles are generally what you would find on its big brother, the F-Pace. The headlights appear to have some sort of LED arrangement as there are no clearly defined projector or reflector elements. Of course, there's no guarantee that these lights will be used across the line-up. They may just be a feature on higher trim levels. Now that we've also seen the car with so few covers and with production-ready sheet metal, we now expect to see the E-Pace fully revealed in person very soon, probably by the end of the year. It will likely be a 2018 model, and may share engines and drivetrains with the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, since the body shape matches that of a vehicle with a transverse mounted engine.
