I am offering for sale My 1985 Series III Jaguar XJ6


If you are looking at this ad, then I am sure you are quite familiar with this car and know that 1985 was one of the best years for these Series III jag.  I took this into consideration when I purchased her a little over 3 yrs ago.  She was well maintained by the previous owner and myself.  I have service records that will go along with the car as well as all manuals and many extra parts that I have collected over the years.

This car comes with a CLEAN New Jersey title.  As per the Autocheck, it has always had a clean title in New Jersey, and previously Ohio.  Initially when the car was registered in Indiana, it was incorrectly entered as a reconstructed title, it was never in an accident, the mistake was corrected and it was issued a CLEAN Indiana title, however it never came off the autocheck.   I have a copy of the autocheck that I can forward to any prospective buyer.  Due to ebay policy, I have to list it as rebuilt, car has a CLEAN title and you will have no trouble registering or insuring it in your state, as me and the previous owner never had a problem.  Now that we have cleared that up, I can tell you more about my beautiful Series III Jag.  You can also call me personally @ 973 280 5699 to discuss and with any concerns that you may have.

This isn't a low mileage example that has been sitting in a garage its whole life, un-used and with alot of expensive maintenance creeping up.  My car is a driver, all required maintenance has been done, it is a daily driver that can take long trips, doesn't make funny noises, no leaks and no suprises here, mechanically very sound and strong.

Cosmetically, she is a beauty!  I get compliments everywhere I go, you just do not see them as clean as this one, and you just don't see them on the road any more.  I love driving her on the weekends and I love the attention I get, so will you!

She has the original paint, I have taken pictures to point out the flays that exist.  2 spots of rust that are starting to bubble, 2 dimples on the driver side fender and a paint chip on the passenger side.  None of these take away from her beauty and is by far still one of the best examples (i believe) here in the north east.

As far as the interior goes, everything is there, everything is original.  The seats have held up pretty well and are still soft and supple unlike the hard dried up ones that do not get the garage life they deserve.  The seats aren't perfect, they have age lines that show, again nothing structural.  The wood is very nice, nicest I have seen around these parts, again from being garaged its entire life.  This leads me to the reason I am selling.  I have lost my garage and instead of having her sit outside, I have decided that it is time to move on and let her go to a good home.

The radio unit went out on me soon after I purchased her, I had it professionally removed and attempted to have it rebuilt by a professional who did not live up to expectation and damaged it.  I was a little disappointed, didn't want to put a newer radio in there and damage the console, so I left it alone, the new owner can hunt down a OEM radio online and fit it in, I actually got used to driving it without the radio.

All window motors work, including the roof.  However, the contacts on the moon roof switch needs to be cleaned a bit as sometimes you have to play with it a bit (press it more than once, very common).  Gas tank switch works as it should, tanks do not leak however sometimes the gauge for the left side tank will read full when it is actually not (not a major prob as it is intermittent).  I try to keep both tanks full anyhow.  Right side gauge reads correct.

People, this is not a showroom piece, it is a very attractive example and my price reflects that.  I am not selling for $10k-$12k like the low mileage mint ones.  I am sellling for less than $5k and willing to take offers from serious buyers.

If you are local and would like to see her in person or have a test-drive, I can be reached @ 973 280 5699.  I am available to answer any questions you may have.  If the winning buyer would like to fly in and drive her home, the nearest airport is Newark Liberty Int'l (EWR).  If you would like to have her shipped I will happily work with the shippers to coordinate pick-up.

Thank you for looking and good luck with your Offers !

Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.

Jaguar F-Type SVR leaks with more power, aggressive looks

Fri, Jan 22 2016

Jaguar's new F-Type SVR just leaked online, and according to the German brochure posted by Autovisie the new model in the range is a powerhouse with 567 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque (according to our conversions) from its 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Those figures give the SVR 25 hp and 14 lb-ft over the current all-wheel drive F-Type R. That's according to the brochure, anyway. US figures might vary slightly. The F-Type SVR is solely available with an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, and the powertrain can get the coupe to a top speed of 200 miles per hour or 194 mph for the convertible. Acceleration is also quite brisk with the run to 62 mph lasting just 3.7 seconds, which makes the new model even quicker than the Project 7's 3.8-second sprint to 60 mph. The SVR shows off its extra power through a more aggressive nose with larger intakes and slats behind the front wheels to pull cool air past the brakes. The rear also gets a wing and larger diffuser. The brochure lists optional carbon ceramic brakes that are 46 pounds lighter overall than traditional units. A titanium exhaust can also shed about 26 pounds and probably makes the supercharged V8 sound even fiercer. Spy shots have shown the SVR testing, but Jaguar hasn't said anything official about it. Still, this brochure looks legit. The document makes no mention of price, but you can expect a premium over the F-Type R's $104,595 (after $995 destination) for the coupe and $107,445 for the convertible. You can check out more photos of the SVR and download the full brochure from Autovisie. Related Video:

Which is hotter, Lana Del Rey or the Jaguar F-Type?

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

Lana Del Rey's "Burning Desire" video, the first musical collaboration between Jaguar and its hired songstress, is half music video, half long-form lifestyle commercial for the 2014 F-Type. If you like Del Rey channeling glamorous fifties fame as she lays down vocals of sensuous, languid dolor over images of black-and-white yesteryears, you'll like this song off of her new EP, Paradise.
We think the appearance of a red and brand-new Jaguar, though, is incongruous - either Del Rey or Jaguar is the anachronism, take your pic. That's not to say it's not beautiful, however, so enjoy the combination in the video below.
