1985 Jaguar Xj6 on 2040-cars
Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, United States
|
I have owned this car for about 12 years.
The Good: All recent rotors and brakes. The rear inboard discs are in good condition. The suspension is very tight. The tires are almost new and are mounted on Dayton wire wheels. All the gages work. The A/C works, power windows and door locks work. The sunroof works. All the lights function properly. The car starts and runs well with no taps rattles etc.. The transmissions shifts properly the fluid is bright pink as it should be. I just made a trip back and forth from OBX to Pittsburgh in this car and it effortlessly rolls down the interstate. At speeds between 75-80 mph I get about 14 mpg. I have always changed the oil and kept up with the maintenance. There is an aftermarket in dash CD player with a 6 disc changer in the trunk. All the speakers were upgraded. The headliner is not sagging. The Not So Good The leather interior is aging and cracking in places, The car was repainted 6 years ago and is now developing rust bubbles around the glass trim. The headlight buckets have rusted through in some places, but the headlights are still secure. It recently developed an exhaust leak between the muffler and the resonator. There is a dent in the passenger rear door from some idiot at the marina parking lot who did not look before backing up. The engine uses a quart of oil every 800 miles. I have no idea where it is going. The tailpipes are clean. The spark plugs look great, there are no drips on the ground. Possibly valve stem seals. The performance is not affected at all. The cruise control does not work. The dashboard has some cracks, The wood paneling on the dashboard is degrading but still in place. Conclusion: For a car this age and mileage it is in pretty good mechanical shape, cosmetically she is feeling her age. Don't hesitate to e-mail with questions. She is being sold as is where is. I prefer cash at the time of pickup. |

Weekly Recap: Things you might not know about the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger Hellcats
Sat, 16 Aug 2014If you're an enthusiast, and you don't know that Dodge spawned another Hellcat this week, you really must have been living in cave. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat is probably the biggest news for enthusiasts since the reveal of, well the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
But, there are some things you might not know or might have missed about the new Charger and Challenger Hellcats. For starters, reports that the Hellcat production would be limited to a low volume are not true.
"We have not capped the Hellcat on either the Challenger or the Charger," Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis said.
Jaguar's first-ever Super Bowl ad to feature F-Type Coupe
Sun, 10 Nov 2013Patrons of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show will be able to get their first glimpse at the new Jaguar F-Type Coupe, but the new hardtop sports car will be shown off to an even greater audience in early February. No, we aren't talking about the Chicago Auto Show - we're referring to the Super Bowl. Jaguar will debut its first-ever Super Bowl ad during the second half of the big game on February 2, 2014, and the sleek new F-Type Coupe will be the star.
According to Jaguar, the ad campaign will pose the question, "Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?" And for all you social media mavens out there, Jaguar will launch a specific hashtag to go with this marketing: #GoodToBeBad.
British director Tom Hooper is responsible for the ad, which is being filmed in London. Americans will get their first glimpse at the campaign this weekend in the first spot, called Disruptor, but the big F-Type Coupe spot will not air until Super Bowl XLVIII in February.
David Brown Speedback GT marks US debut at The Quail
Sun, Aug 16 2015The British invasion has officially deployed another expeditionary force to these American shores with the arrival of the David Brown Speedback GT. The classically styled English grand tourer debuted nearly a year and a half ago, and has been racking up orders from discerning customers in the UK and across continental Europe. As promised, it has now made its American debut at the swanky Monterey event known as The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering. The Speedback GT is a coachbuilt grand touring coupe made by British startup David Brown Automotive. It's based on a Jaguar XKR, but reskinned inside and out to give it the look and feel of a classic Aston Martin – little wonder given the name it shares with the former Aston chief whose initials still adorn the DB model line. Underneath the retro bodywork lies Jaguar's celebrated 5.0-titer supercharged V8, giving the Speedback thoroughly modern levels of muscle with 510 horsepower and 461 pound-feet of torque. The resulting 0-60 time of 4.6 seconds and top speed of 155 miles per hour are suitably quick – not quite time-warping, but the performance is certainly nowhere near as old-school as the design would lead you to believe. Call it the best of both worlds, then, if you dig the styling. But don't expect everyone to be jumping on this particular gentlemanly bandwagon. At nearly half a million pounds sterling – over $750k at current exchange rates – it's sure to keep out the riffraff of which "the rest of us" are most certainly part.
