Selling a 1987 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas sedan. Last year of the classic Series III body style, and arguably last of the "real" Jag as it was built in Coventry. Solid black exterior, tan leather interior, inline 6-cylinder engine, auto, A/C, power windows, door locks, sunroof, cruise, OEM AM/FM cassette radio, dual fuel tanks, all original and fully loaded. Low 121k 2-owners original miles. This is an unmolested California vehicle since new, bought locally new here in San Francisco Bay Area and have been here all its life (I knew the previous owners personally for years). Car runs fine and is currently registered and insured, no accidents (have older copy of CarFax to prove) and I have clean title on hand ready to transfer. Selling mainly because nobody in the family drives the car and it sits around most of the time; we just don't have the need for the car anymore.


Highlights:
-low original miles
-service records
-have original manuals, documentations, even the original cassette cleaner
-extra keys
-California vehicle all it's life so there is no rust anywhere, nothing around the windows that Jag this vintage usually have
-no crack dash
-both front seats have sheepskin covers on since new 
-trip computer works
-passes CA smog inspection no problem
-no mechanical work needed as-is

Car is ready to be driven anywhere as it has no mechanical issues of any kind. It does need a few small things however to make it perfect if you have the time:
-Small oil leak. It drips a little here and there, but nothing major and not losing oil. Remember this is a Jag
-A/C not operating, but it should work. We don't drive the car enough to ever get it serviced.
-Fuel gauge works, but intermittently
-Power door locks all work except passenger side won't unlock centrally, but still unlocks fine from inside.
-Outside mirror on passenger side is floppy, but motor works just fine
-Original AM/FM cassette stereo works fine, but the power antenna just went out
-headliner is starting to sag a little from the back 
-because we have no room in the garage, the car had to be parked outside for a while, so some area of the paint is starting to fade, but car still looks good from 10 feet away.

That's is all. It is a solid car that's been sparingly driven with verifiable ownership history. I have disclosed all the issues that I am personally aware of. Very low reserve, probably lower than most what everyone else is asking currently. Winning bidder need to either come pick up in person or make your own shipping arrangements. Funds must be cleared first before I will release the title. Thanks for looking and please email with any questions.

2016 Jaguar XE is ready to stalk the competition

Mon, 08 Sep 2014



The XE wears some of the best styling elements from Jaguar's current litter.
Big sedans and sports cars. Jaguar has been known for those two things since the company's name was birthed in 1945. Stylish saloons like the Mark 2 and performance machines like the E-Type make up the brand's heritage, but the compact sedan market is one where the British marque has lacked great product.

Jaguar F-Type Coupe is here, will debut on stage in LA

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

When Jaguar previewed its new sportscar two years ago with the C-X16 concept, it showed a coupe form. But when the car hit production as the F-Type, it rolled out in roadster form only. Not that we're complaining, but we all knew it wouldn't be long before Coventry revealed the production coupe, and that's just what it's doing at this month's LA Auto Show.
Jaguar hasn't given us much to go on yet - just a single shot of the vehicle from above and nothing in the way of technical details - but we all know the drill. The F-Type Coupe will essentially be the same as the existing roadster, only with a fixed roof - with a large glass panel, mind you, to let plenty of light in and keep the cabin from feeling markedly more claustrophobic than the open-top version.
That ought to make it a little lighter (though not much) and a little stiffer, but otherwise we can expect more or less the same specs as the convertible. We'll have to wait until the evening of November 19 to know for sure, though, so watch this space for more.

Jaguar XFR-S pitted against Mercedes E63 AMG

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

It was Steve Sutcliffe at Autocar who got the tough job of comparing the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG to the limited edition Jaguar XFR-S on the track and sheep-strewn British B-roads. In UK spec both Mephistophelean sedans wrangle the same 542 horsepower, but step out of the corral and things look to weigh heavily in the Mercedes' favor: it has more torque, it's lighter, it's quicker from 0-to-60 and it's less expensive.
But that's on paper. Sutcliffe was given the job to see what effect all those letters and numbers had on the real-world driving experience. One of them is "an absolute hoot at the track" with great steering and weight management, one is "magnificent." To find out which is which, watch the video below.
