Finally, vehicle is BACK UP FOR SALE ! I am selling for a friend. Earlier I stopped the auction because owner didn't have title. Since car is registered and owned in the State of Maine, they DO NOT ISSUE a title for any car older than 1995.
This 1987 Jaguar XJ6 will come with a BILL OF SALE , CURRENT MAINE REGISTRATION , and a letter from the State of Maine to give to the division of motor vehicles and title and register in YOUR STATE.
Now, The car-
This car is owned by a Florida snowbird. They sold their Florida home and no longer have need for the car. The car has not had much use in the last few years. Needs to be driven more and enjoyed again !
THEIR LOSS , YOUR GAIN ! SOLD TO FIRST COME FIRST SERVE ! I can not store car any longer ! MAKE AN OFFER, but PLEASE don't insult me..
I've been in possession of the car for a few weeks now. Here are the things I noticed wrong with the car. But please keep in mind I am NO EXPERT, and I know nothing about Jaguars..
FIRST, THE NOT SO GOOD:
-Car idles rough when first started, for about 20 seconds. Then it runs perfect. I wiggled some plug wires when it was idling rough, and it seemed to change the rough idle. My guess is it needs a new distributor cap and wires.
-While in car and idling, I could hear a faint tapping I thought was coming from engine or passenger side. I traced it to the actual fuel rail and line going to back of car. When I grabbed the line behind rear tire, I could actually feel it tapping in my hand. So the tapping must be the fuel pump ?
-A/C does not get cold. I checked fuses and the basics, and all seems fine. Owner said it worked last summer. Possibly lost a charge due to it sitting. Not sure. Blower and controls work fine.
-Car has 2 gas tanks. 1 sending unit for gas gauge does not work (passenger side tank). The gas tank works and all, but you can't tell if its full or empty. I went to fill the tank thinking it was empty, and its full. Guess it would make a good backup tank :)
-Oil pressure gauge on dash doesn't show a reading. Either the gauge is bad, or a bad sending unit.
-Exterior : Car has good paint, but not great. There is a noticeable clearcoat issue on hood (SEE PICS). Right above rear passenger tire, there is a small ding. Normal paint chips here and there for this age car. Some areas of clearcoat have a 'webbing' or hairline scratching.
-Interior : front floor mats need replaced. Some light cracking in faux wood on dash. Front seats not ripped but have some stitching missing and show wear
NOW THE GOOD !: -Exterior- All chrome parts are near perfect condition. All windows work 100% . Sunroof opens as should. Exterior motorized radio antenna works 100%. hood and trunk work 100%. Doors shut solid.
-Interior: Headliner had been replaced, still good. New upper dash. Radio works (don't have a tape to test cassette tape deck). All other knobs and buttons seem to work. Electric drivers seat works.
-Engine: Runs good. No unusual noises from motor. Transmission shifts smooth and the car rides down the road great. Has not used oil or left a spot in my driveway or garage either ! Hoses, brake lines, etc. are all in good shape.
-The car just, looks, good !! I already have 3 vehicles. I'd keep it myself but have no room !
-I have a lot of paperwork with the car. Including a parts manual and service manual. MANY service records and repair records (probably all of them) since new, even the original window sticker.
-according to paperwork, It had new shocks, A/C converted to new coolant, water pump, shocks, brakes and exhaust all have been done within the last 30k miles.
Well, that's all I got. Please check out the 2 videos I took of the car running Below!
ALSO LISTED LOCALLY ! WILL NOT SHIP and MUST BE PICKED UP WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF AUCTION END !
** SOLD AS IS CONDITION- NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED- vehicle described to best of my knowledge **

Forget Tawny Kitaen. If you want to make a Jaguar XJ rock, just do what this guy did: stuff a heavily modified and turbocharged General Motors V8 under the hood, and take it to the track.
The video calls this Series 1 XJ a sleeper, but with its open exhaust and obvious turbo whistle, the once-gentlemanly sedan is anything but. The owner says that the engine is GM LQ9 V8 that has been stroked to 402 cubic inches putting out around 720 horsepower with 12 pounds of boost (in standard form, this 6.0-liter V8 was used in the second-gen Cadillac Escalade). Check out the video below to see what that kind of power does for this classic Jaguar in the eighth-mile.

"We feel we could make the car work, but looking at the global austerity measures in place now, it seems the wrong time to launch an 800,000-pound to 1 million-pound supercar."
Those words are from Jaguar Global Brand Director Adrian Hallmark, and as true as they may be, it still stings a little bit. After all, we've been looking forward to the Jaguar C-X75 ever since word came from Jolly Olde that it was green-lit for a short production run.
Some of the cool bits and pieces the world will now be without: a powerful but relatively miserly 1.6-liter turbocharged and supercharged four-cylinder engine, two electric motors driving all four wheels and a carbon fiber chassis developed by Williams F1. Sigh.
