Vehicle Description
A classic Jaguar sedan is an everlasting symbol of affluence and
distinction, so we promise to keep this economy price a secret. But
this 1990 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas's appeal is more than just its
affordability. And with only 29,405 original miles, this one purrs
like a good cat should.
Jaguar's reputation for smoothness, performance, and old-world
luxury is reflected in this handsome sedan. It has been properly
maintained throughout its life, a fact demonstrated by the
beautiful and correct Diamond Blue paint. This hue still looks
fantastic, and so it tells you that this ultra low-mileage car was
a garage-kept cherished toy. But like any good finely crafted
European product, the quality is in the details. The brightwork
around the windows looks amazing; the full-length trim highlights
the sporty profile with an almost unbroken line; and the factory
wire wheels are pure rolling elegance. This was the first year for
the rectangular headlights, which was a short run of distinction
that never lost the iconic silhouette that made the XJ6 an iconic
of sporty luxury.
The Savile Grey interior is a finished to the standards of the
grand English tradition that you can still find on cars like
Bentley and Rolls Royce. And these comparisons are easy when you
sit inside and are surrounded by luxury materials like the leather,
wool, and wood - all of which were finished to craftsman level
standards. In fact, those who know Jaguars, know that a Vanden Plas
is the upper echelon of the already premium Jaguar name. It has
exclusive features, including more wood, rear tray tables, and
individual rear seats. The comfort continues with a long list of
desirable features such as a power sunroof, power seats, power
steering, power locks, cruise control, original AM/FM/cassette
stereo, and a digital readout center that goes along with the large
round analog speedo and tach. They even upgraded the
air-conditioning to R134a to make sure everyone remains
comfortable.
1990 was a great year because all-aluminum multi-valve engine was
increased to 4.0-liters. This is represented so nicely, right down
to the factory decals. So it points all signs to being the original
powerplant. This fuel-injected motor is a smooth operator, and it's
backed by a smooth-shifting four-speed automatic overdrive
transmission that works with the iconic J-gate shifter. You'll love
this Jaguar because these have always been one of the best handling
luxury sedans coming straight from the factory. And a fully
independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes all makes for the
perfect package to attack the backroads on a weekend getaway.
This has been so well loved that even the original window sticker
comes with the sale. Jaguar cars have always been for the elite,
and the Vanden Plas is the top of the order. So finding a well
maintained example that has averaged barely over 1,000 miles
annually is a true rare gem. Call today!!!
