Finally, vehicle is BACK UP FOR SALE ! I am selling for a friend.
Earlier I stopped the auction because owner didn't have title. Since car is registered and owned in the State of Maine, they DO NOT ISSUE a title for any car older than 1995. This 1987 Jaguar XJ6 will come with a BILL OF SALE , CURRENT MAINE REGISTRATION , and a letter from the State of Maine to give to the division of motor vehicles and title and register in YOUR STATE. Now, The car- This car is owned by a Florida snowbird. They sold their Florida home and no longer have need for the car. The car has not had much use in the last few years. Needs to be driven more and enjoyed again ! THEIR LOSS , YOUR GAIN ! SOLD TO FIRST COME FIRST SERVE ! I can not store car any longer ! MAKE AN OFFER, but PLEASE don't insult me.. I've been in possession of the car for a few weeks now. Here are the things I noticed wrong with the car. But please keep in mind I am NO EXPERT, and I know nothing about Jaguars.. FIRST, THE NOT SO GOOD: -Car idles rough when first started, for about 20 seconds. Then it runs perfect. I wiggled some plug wires when it was idling rough, and it seemed to change the rough idle. My guess is it needs a new distributor cap and wires. -While in car and idling, I could hear a faint tapping I thought was coming from engine or passenger side. I traced it to the actual fuel rail and line going to back of car. When I grabbed the line behind rear tire, I could actually feel it tapping in my hand. So the tapping must be the fuel pump ? -A/C does not get cold. I checked fuses and the basics, and all seems fine. Owner said it worked last summer. Possibly lost a charge due to it sitting. Not sure. Blower and controls work fine. -Car has 2 gas tanks. 1 sending unit for gas gauge does not work (passenger side tank). The gas tank works and all, but you can't tell if its full or empty. I went to fill the tank thinking it was empty, and its full. Guess it would make a good backup tank :) -Oil pressure gauge on dash doesn't show a reading. Either the gauge is bad, or a bad sending unit. -Exterior : Car has good paint, but not great. There is a noticeable clearcoat issue on hood (SEE PICS). Right above rear passenger tire, there is a small ding. Normal paint chips here and there for this age car. Some areas of clearcoat have a 'webbing' or hairline scratching. -Interior : front floor mats need replaced. Some light cracking in faux wood on dash. Front seats not ripped but have some stitching missing and show wear NOW THE GOOD !: -Exterior- All chrome parts are near perfect condition. All windows work 100% . Sunroof opens as should. Exterior motorized radio antenna works 100%. hood and trunk work 100%. Doors shut solid. -Interior: Headliner had been replaced, still good. New upper dash. Radio works (don't have a tape to test cassette tape deck). All other knobs and buttons seem to work. Electric drivers seat works. -Engine: Runs good. No unusual noises from motor. Transmission shifts smooth and the car rides down the road great. Has not used oil or left a spot in my driveway or garage either ! Hoses, brake lines, etc. are all in good shape. -The car just, looks, good !! I already have 3 vehicles. I'd keep it myself but have no room ! -I have a lot of paperwork with the car. Including a parts manual and service manual. MANY service records and repair records (probably all of them) since new, even the original window sticker. -according to paperwork, It had new shocks, A/C converted to new coolant, water pump, shocks, brakes and exhaust all have been done within the last 30k miles. Well, that's all I got. Please check out the 2 videos I took of the car running Below! ALSO LISTED LOCALLY ! WILL NOT SHIP and MUST BE PICKED UP WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF AUCTION END ! ** SOLD AS IS CONDITION- NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED- vehicle described to best of my knowledge ** |

Jaguar buys world's largest collection of British cars
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Whether you're looking at Bertone going bankrupt or Spyker facing (and subsequently resolving) a large tax bill, it's saddening to see an automaker having to sell off its factory collection. That's why we're glad to report that there are still some acquiring historic vehicles from their pasts. Like Jaguar, which has just bought the largest private collection of classic British cars in the world.
The collection of 543 cars was painstakingly assembled by one James Hull, a British dentist with some 50 dental clinics to his name across the UK and who was keen to find the right buyer to take possession of his life's work and preserve it for years to come.
Of those 543 cars, the majority are of British origin, including over 130 Jaguars. The collection includes seven XK120s, several C- and D-Types, a rare XKSS, eight E-Types, thirty Mark-series Jaguar sedans, nineteen XJS coupes and convertibles, some twenty XJ sedans as well as some pre-war SS models and Swallow sidecars and coachbuilt specials from the company's early days. Among the many noteworthy examples are a rare SS100, an alloy-bodied XK120 and an MK X owned by company founder Sir William Lyons himself, as well as Winston Churchill's Austin, Elton John's Bentley, and racing driver and motorcycle rider Mike Hailwood's E-Type.

Autoblog Podcast #327:
Jaguar XK to cease production this summer
Mon, 10 Mar 2014With the introduction of the F-Type coupe and convertible, Jaguar has cleared room in its sports car lineup to drop the XK for new models. "There will be a 2015 model year XK, but the rumors are true, production for the XK will end later this year after eight years," said Wayne York Kung, Jaguar USA National Product Communications Manager, in an email to Autoblog. A replacement for the GT might be a very long way off.
The automaker told Auto Express that it's part of a "wider strategic vision and product planning cycle." Ending assembly will allow the feline luxury brand to build better-selling vehicles like the XE, its upcoming BMW 3 Series fighter. The new sedan is scheduled to go on sale in Europe in 2015 and in the US in 2016. It also needs to make room for the C-X17 crossover to be built, which is likely expected to sell better than a 2+2 GT car.
"There are no immediate plans to replace the XK," said Kung in his email. Jag was rumored to be considering moving a future generation of it upmarket. The new model would have been a bigger, softer grand tourer and allow the F-Type to be the brand's more hardcore sports car.
