I am offering for sale My 1985 Series III Jaguar XJ6


If you are looking at this ad, then I am sure you are quite familiar with this car and know that 1985 was one of the best years for these Series III jag.  I took this into consideration when I purchased her a little over 3 yrs ago.  She was well maintained by the previous owner and myself.  I have service records that will go along with the car as well as all manuals and many extra parts that I have collected over the years.

This car comes with a CLEAN New Jersey title.  As per the Autocheck, it has always had a clean title in New Jersey, and previously Ohio.  Initially when the car was registered in Indiana, it was incorrectly entered as a reconstructed title, it was never in an accident, the mistake was corrected and it was issued a CLEAN Indiana title, however it never came off the autocheck.   I have a copy of the autocheck that I can forward to any prospective buyer.  Due to ebay policy, I have to list it as rebuilt, car has a CLEAN title and you will have no trouble registering or insuring it in your state, as me and the previous owner never had a problem.  Now that we have cleared that up, I can tell you more about my beautiful Series III Jag.  You can also call me personally @ 973 280 5699 to discuss and with any concerns that you may have.

This isn't a low mileage example that has been sitting in a garage its whole life, un-used and with alot of expensive maintenance creeping up.  My car is a driver, all required maintenance has been done, it is a daily driver that can take long trips, doesn't make funny noises, no leaks and no suprises here, mechanically very sound and strong.

Cosmetically, she is a beauty!  I get compliments everywhere I go, you just do not see them as clean as this one, and you just don't see them on the road any more.  I love driving her on the weekends and I love the attention I get, so will you!

She has the original paint, I have taken pictures to point out the flays that exist.  2 spots of rust that are starting to bubble, 2 dimples on the driver side fender and a paint chip on the passenger side.  None of these take away from her beauty and is by far still one of the best examples (i believe) here in the north east.

As far as the interior goes, everything is there, everything is original.  The seats have held up pretty well and are still soft and supple unlike the hard dried up ones that do not get the garage life they deserve.  The seats aren't perfect, they have age lines that show, again nothing structural.  The wood is very nice, nicest I have seen around these parts, again from being garaged its entire life.  This leads me to the reason I am selling.  I have lost my garage and instead of having her sit outside, I have decided that it is time to move on and let her go to a good home.

The radio unit went out on me soon after I purchased her, I had it professionally removed and attempted to have it rebuilt by a professional who did not live up to expectation and damaged it.  I was a little disappointed, didn't want to put a newer radio in there and damage the console, so I left it alone, the new owner can hunt down a OEM radio online and fit it in, I actually got used to driving it without the radio.

All window motors work, including the roof.  However, the contacts on the moon roof switch needs to be cleaned a bit as sometimes you have to play with it a bit (press it more than once, very common).  Gas tank switch works as it should, tanks do not leak however sometimes the gauge for the left side tank will read full when it is actually not (not a major prob as it is intermittent).  I try to keep both tanks full anyhow.  Right side gauge reads correct.

People, this is not a showroom piece, it is a very attractive example and my price reflects that.  I am not selling for $10k-$12k like the low mileage mint ones.  I am sellling for less than $5k and willing to take offers from serious buyers.

If you are local and would like to see her in person or have a test-drive, I can be reached @ 973 280 5699.  I am available to answer any questions you may have.  If the winning buyer would like to fly in and drive her home, the nearest airport is Newark Liberty Int'l (EWR).  If you would like to have her shipped I will happily work with the shippers to coordinate pick-up.

Thank you for looking and good luck with your Offers !

Watch the trailer for Jaguar's short film staring the F-Type and Damian Lewis

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Jaguar continues to think well outside of the box when it comes to marketing it's new F-Type, now furthering plans for a short film which highlights the sexy roadster. Desire, featuring Damian Lewis (star of the hit series Homeland), Jordi Mollà (unforgettable in Bad Boys II) and Shannyn Sossamon (that girl you had a crush on for like a month in 2002 after you rented A Knight's Tale), Jaguar is clearly pulling out all the stops for this one. Well, nearly all the stops anyway ­- the "Ridley Scott Associates" billing isn't quite the same has having the man himself, if we're splitting hairs.
The short video below is still just a trailer for Desire - the full film will make its debut sometime in April, we're told. The sketched out plotlines tell us that Lewis' character Clark, "...delivers cars for a living, running into trouble after a chance encounter with a mysterious, young woman (Sossamon) in the middle of a lawless desert." The car looks good, at any rate.
Call us crazy, but the Desire trailer feels an awful lot like a spoof on the cool-but-overly-serious short films that BMW has done in this vein, already. Maybe we're just being cynical? Tell us what you think in comments after watching the clip.

Jaguar turns down offers to join V8 Supercars, questions AMG, Volvo participation

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Rumors have swirled in recent weeks that Jaguar may be the next manufacturer to join the V8 Supercars racing series, made popular in Australia but now well-known in other parts of the world as well. Sadly, Jag's participation is not to be. In fact, it would be "insane," according to Jaguar Land Rover Asia Pacific Managing Director David Blackhall, for it to accept either of the two offers it has received to bring Jaguar into V8 Supercars.
Not only is Jaguar not interested in entering V8 Supercars, says Blackhall, it also fails to understand the recent entries from AMG and Volvo. "I don't know what it does for AMG to get flogged by a V8 Commodore week after week, but it's their brand, their issue. And the same thing will happen to Volvo to be honest."
Judging by Blackhall's statements to motoring.com.au, after not-so-serious consideration, the automaker decided the monetary commitment it would take to compete for wins would be more than any potential exposure would be worth, despite the fact that Jaguar has a 5.0-liter V8 to go along with what would seem to be a tailor-made rear-wheel-drive chassis. For what it's worth, one offer would have had Jaguar putting its name across an engine made by someone else, an option that was flatly turned down.

Wacky Jaguar crossover mule is a mind-blowing mashup

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

As Jaguar prepares to introduce its first-ever utility vehicle, our spy shooters have captured this jacked-up XF mule out testing. While a production Jaguar crossover will surely resemble something closer to the recent C-X17 Concept, we can't help but think that the automaker could sell at least a few of these lifted, four-wheel-drive sedans.
Other than proving that Jaguar is hard at work developing this new model using a cobbled-together body, there are some details we can put together about this luxury CUV. For one it's about the same length as an XF, while the ride height is obviously taller and the tire track wider. We're not sure what the rig on top of this mule is for, but the whole car has us reminiscing about the old sedan versions of the Subaru Outback and the AMC Eagle (with a luxury spin, of course).
