Description of 1987 Jaguar XJ6 |
Alpine green metallic. Cream leather interior. Owned by one family from 1987 until 8/11. I'm the second owner. This is the Vanden Plas model with plush floor mats and rear head restraints. The car has been garaged its entire life. The car has a vintage cell phone installed in the center armrest with the vintage antenna attached to the rear window. Of course. the cell phone does not work. but I think it adds to the 80s look of the vehicle. The Good:- Alpine green metallic paint is in excellent condition- Exterior chrome is in excellent condition- No cracks on the dash cap or the dash itself- Interior leather is in excellent condition. - Original R12 A/C works superbly- Original Jaguar radio and antenna works- No issues with twin gas tanks and tank switching system- New headliner installed by original owner- Compression check done in 8/11. All cylinders between 152 and 155 psi. - Some maintenance records back to 1996- Current registration and inspectionMaintenance highlights:- Transmission service done at 79K miles in 11/03- New fuel filter in 8/11- Oil & filter in 9/11 81. 5K miles- Brake fluid flushed in 9/11 81. 5K miles- New Interstate battery 12/11- New front sway bar bushings 12/11- New throttle cable 11/12- New valve cover gaskets 1/13- New speedometer sending unit transducer 9/14. - New alternator in 9/14. - Oil & filter in 9/14.
