Summary: the previous owner died, and the car was left in her garage for 14 years. As a result, it has low mileage and is in good condition. This car is my daily driver during the summer. It runs and drives quite well. A favorite with friends, family, and fellow enthusiasts.
Year: 1986 Make: Jaguar Model: XJ6 Mileage: 78,143 Engine: 4.2 liter inline 6 Transmission: 3-speed automatic Exterior: Light grey/metallic-blue Interior: Dark blue leather & wood Options: Sunroof, chrome wire wheels, power windows, AM/FM/MP3 radio, modern A/C coolant conversion I've owned this XJ6 since April 8, 2013. I bought it from an individual in Wethersfield, CT, just across the river. The woman who previously owned it passed away 14 years ago, and the car sat undriven in her garage until her elderly husband decided to sell it. I bought the car with a frozen odometer, showing 74,143 miles. I can't say for sure that was the actual mileage. The seller was not aware that the odometer was frozen. My theory is that it probably froze up at some point during the 14-year garaged period, but again, I can't say for sure. In any case, I would estimate that I've put between 3,000 and 4,000 miles on it since then, which is why I am listing it with 78,143 miles. I have done the following work on the car to restore it to it's origninal condition: - New exhaust (pipes, mufflers, resonators, all mounting hardware), stainless steel mufflers - New Michelin Defender 205/70R15 tires, balanced wheels - New radiator, coolant - Air Conditioning conversion to R134A (modern) coolant - New spark plugs, wires, ignition coil, distributor cap, and rotor - New cold start fuel injector, cleaned out all fuel injectors - Throttle body cleaning, idle tuning, timing adjustment - New coolant temp sensor, oxygen sensor, K&N air filter, fuel filter - New oil & filter, brake fluid, differential fluid - New front shock bushings, new right front shock absorber - New rear brake pads, headlamp bulbs, wiper blades - New BOSS Audio radio (takes iPod / mp3 input), two 10" subwoofers, 2000-Watt Pyle amp Engine is running great. The frame is very solid and mostly rust-free; it looks like it was spray-coated at some point before I bought it. The paint is in pretty good condition: no haze, but some small chips behind the tires. Chrome is nice all around, wire wheels are very eye-catching. The interior is also in good condition - wood, leather, and carpets look great. There are no stains whatsoever. This car has been washed, waxed, and vacuumed every other weekend for the entirety of my ownership. The car runs and drives great, and has the traditional "growler" engine sound and very smooth ride of a classic Jaguar. I can personally attest that this car is a great daily driver. Unfortunately I am at college and cannot bring the car with me, and so I would rather sell this car to an appreciative owner than keep it in storage while I'm gone. Comes with original radio, jack, lug wrench, and user manual. The previous owner passed all the car's documentation over to me along with the car. I have a 1-inch thick folder of work orders and receipts. There's also a picture of the car where it was garaged. I am selling the car for cash only, and I have a clean title. If you have any questions, let me know! Contact info: Bob Rudolph, (860) 338-7251 or bobrudolph53 (at) gmail (dot) com |

Jaguar launches the new E-Pace into a barrel roll | Autoblog Minute
Fri, Jul 14 2017After months of testing – some of which we caught in spy photos – and a little teasing, Jaguar has officially entered the compact crossover space with the launch of the 2018 E-Pace. And it was a fairly grand entry, too.
Seven-figure cars highlight day one of RM's Monterey auction
Sat, 17 Aug 2013RM 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.
Jaguar takes bite out of Mercedes' Magic Body Control chicken ad
Tue, 17 Dec 2013We were quite impressed by Mercedes-Benz when it aired its Magic Body Control commercial, starring a group suitably funky chickens demonstrating their ability to jive to Diana Ross and the Supremes. Now, Jaguar has taken the opportunity to poke some fun at its German rival, releasing its own take on the Magic Body Control spot, and um, there's a big cat involved.
You'll really want to take a look at this video, which is just another sign that in terms of clever ads, Jaguar is doing quite well. We aren't sure if "Jaguar vs. Chicken" will make it onto TV any time soon, but it's still fun to see the British brand take the mickey out of Mercedes - it's rare to see automakers go after each other so bluntly in their marketing efforts. Scroll down to watch the video (we've also included a bonus video, Jag's recent "Cat In A Box" spot).
