1985 Jaguar Xj6 Sedan, Sold With No Reserve on 2040-cars
Saint Helens, Oregon, United States
|
You're looking at a 1985 Jaguar XJ6 sedan. This particular one is an automatic, white with black leather interior. It's been an Oregon car for most of its life, and it currently has 153k miles on the body and roughly 40k on the 4.2 I6 engine. It's my daily driver, so the mileage is increasing weekly. Selling as my new daily driver (a Rover P6) is finally roadworthy.
Condition-wise... it's in pretty good original condition The paint looks good with no peeling, the seats are in great condition, and the carpets/headliner/wood are perfect. It's in excellent daily driver condition; I wouldn't hesitate to drive it absolutely anywhere. I've completed several 500+ mile trips in it with no problems. However, in order to make it a show car, it does need a couple of things. Firsty, the windshield is cracked (see pic), the A/C doesn't work (compressor comes on, air doesn't blow cold), there's a 1" surface rust spot just below the windshield, and the passenger seat has a 1" rip in it.The paint is also quite stone chipped on the front valance. In the last few months, it's had both front and rear brakes, new wires/plugs and lifetime K&N air filter, fluids change about 500 miles ago incl cooling system flush / new thermostat, and a new battery (the old one was from 1996!). The previous owner told me the engine had been replaced with a rebuilt unit at roughly 110k miles; the gearbox is the original BW66 unit. It starts, runs, drives, and stops just fine. The transmission shifts smoothly through the gears, the car starts first time every time and has good oil pressure both hot and cold. Uprated KYB shocks and newer bushings all round. Custom straight-through exhaust system. Currently running without the air pump hooked up, though parts for this can be included if required. Electrically.. the lights, cruise control, heater, power windows, power door locks, power sunroof, and all the fun fuel tank switchover stuff work perfectly. It's currently got a Sony CD/MP3 stereo head unit fitted, along with 5.25" Focal component speakers in the doors and rear deck, and an Infinity Reference amp mounted under the passenger seat. Usual stuff.. please ask any and all questions before bidding, deposit expected within 48hrs of auction end, full payment within seven days, and car must be picked up from zip code 97051. I'm more than happy to assist with storage and/or shipping if you need it. Thanks for reading! |

Jaguar C-X75 production run canceled
Tue, 11 Dec 2012"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.
This classic Jaguar XJ has a 720-hp ungentlemanly secret
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Forget 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.
Jaguar C-X17 Concept teased before Frankfurt
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Just ahead of the Frankfurt Motor Show, which begins September 10, Jaguar is teasing the reveal of a design study to introduce its new advanced vehicle architecture. Dubbed the C-X17, the mysterious concept "illustrates the diversity of vehicles that could be produced using this architecture, which underpins the innovative future of the Jaguar brand."
While it's not entirely clear what this architecture involves or what type of vehicle the C-X17 may be, this reveal is reminiscent of Jaguar's decision to unveil the C-X16 concept, a hybrid electric sports car, in Frankfurt in 2011. From the looks of the teaser image Jaguar released (click above to enlarge), we're guessing the C-X17 will be something between a low-slung crossover and a sporty wagon. But we won't have to wait too long to find out - Jaguar is streaming the live pre-show reveal to invited guests on its Facebook page on Monday, Sept. 9.
In addition to the C-X17, Jaguar be showing off the performance-oriented XJR and XFR-S, and, of course, the F-Type convertible. Scroll down for the official press release.
