Vehicle Description
T his is an amazing and simply gorgeous condition Jaguar XJ-6
Vanden Plas saloon. Finished in Bordeaux metallic with beige
leather interior that presents in incredibly nice condition and is
borderline immaculate. The Vanden Plas was the top of the line with
special seat lay-out, unique upholstery with rear head-restraints,
extra leather on door armrests and various trim, higher quality
Connolly hide through-out, burl walnut wood with teak in-lays on
door pieces, extra interior lighting and "on-board computer". The
Vanden Plas was the highest model specification in the USA. This is
a 3 meticulous owner car with some 78,000 miles, sold new in
California and residing there most of its life, she is a very dry
example without a spec of rust anywhere. She has a perfect Carfax
report. Everything works as it should and as pictures show, is in
immaculate presentation. Recently serviced and all in working order
to include new shock and steering bushings and brake service by
experienced technicians. Mechanically the car is fantastic with no
known issues. Just a quick look under the hood is testament to how
well this Vanden Plas has been maintained. Every single feature and
function works as it should; windows, door locks, sun-roof,
antenna, stereo, A/C, heater, interior and exterior lights, horn
(both high and low)... the complete list. Body and paint is
excellent. Very shiny and consistent with hardly a minor chip here
in there. There is no rust in the typical areas namely; the bottom
of the front and rear windows, lower fenders, rockers and wheel
arches. Unlike many Jaguars of the era, this one is free of the
ugly side mouldings installed by dealers when new. The factory
correct Jaguar rims are in excellent shape and mounted are Michelin
tyres in their correct 215/70-15 size. The interior is quite a
stunning aspect of the car with no noticeable wear. The carpets are
excellent and the original broadcloth wool headliner is in good
condition without any of the typical "droop" usually seen on this
model. The leather great and the dash like a new one. The burl
walnut wood is in nice condition but with some hairline cracking in
the lacquer (the worst area being the glove box fascia). The
console and door wood is almost perfect. Have a close look at the
buttons and switch gear; they are all in excellent condition.
Simply amazing. The rear parcel shelf shows no sign of fade. She is
also a non-smoker car so clean and sweet. Not much more can be said
but to invite you to take a close look at the many, many photos of
this great Jaguar Vanden Plas saloon. Truly an immaculate example,
I am sure you will agree. Surely amongst one of the better examples
available for sale today. A fantastic low-cost luxury driver.
