Vehicle Description
This an absolutely gorgeous XJ6 Jaguar sedan out-fitted in Old
English white (off-white) with biscuit tan hide-leather interior
and coordinating carpets. The car is finished with a dual light
gold fine-lines on the body waist-line. The overall combination
presents very elegantly. This is a 2 previous owner example with
84,000 original low miles. Delivered in Florida in the summer of
1987, the car was owned by a mature lady who rarely drove it. At
her elderly age in 2010, the car was put away in climate control
storage and travelled less than 1,000 miles in the subsequent 11
years. The car only came to Illinois this year and so has been
completely spared from inclement weather and as such is rust and
scale free. The car was purchased from the family's estate. The
body on this car is straight and the paint is in very good
condition sporting mostly original paint. It does have some very
minor little marks here and there from consistent with that
expected from a low mileage example that has been well maintained
and regularly cleaned and polished. The paint is consistent and
lustrous. There is no rust and the underside is very clean and dry.
The interior of the car is in very nice condition with excellent
Connolly hide leather upholstery finished in the biscuit tan
leather. The leather is in wonderful condition with just the right
amount of patina ("patina" does not mean rips & tears!). All the
wood on the dash, doors and console is original and in very good
condition. There is some delaminating in the wood piece below the
on-board computer panel but it is not that objectionable. This
piece can easily be changed for about $200 if it bothers you. The
rest of the wood and lacquer finish is shiny, without any lifting
and in excellent condition. Especially the main dash and glovebox -
the most important part and otherwise the most expensive area to
repair. The door inserts are also equally close to perfect. Their
is no sagging or marks in the headlining. It presents in original
appearance and the carpet is excellent. All interior chrome
finishes are almost perfect. Overall it is like that of a 10 year
old well looked after Jaguar and smells like it too. All interior
features and functions are fully operational including electrics -
windows, gauges, lights etc. The A/C blows cold, the heater nice
and toasty. The sunroof works as it should without any leaks.
Everything is also clean and crisp. It still has its original
stereo system fitted. The exterior chrome, stainless steel and
bright work finishes are all good without any pitting and the
rubber around the car is very fine. Mechanically, the car is in
superior condition and the original presentation under the bonnet
clearly shows that. The car was recently put thru the workshop and
a safety inspection carried out. Exhaust is good with the correct
original stainless exhaust tips fitted. The car has a good set of
Michelin 215/70-15 tyres mounted on factory alloys that are in
amazingly fine condition. No fading in the finish, no corrosion, no
scuffs. Even the Jaguar centre caps are all nice. The spare is
matching and still has the factory fitted Pirelli P4000 fitted. The
car has a good clean AutoCheck score and report. This is a 9 out of
10 driver example that needs nothing else doing. It makes for a
gorgeous "weekender" that you could take to your next Jaguar meet
with pride and joy. Please take the time to look at the photo link
