This 1985 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas has spent much of its time registered in Washington State and was acquired by the seller in 2023. It is finished in red over beige leather upholstery and powered by a 4.2-liter inline-six paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes 15″ wire-spoke wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, a sunroof, a “leaper” hood ornament, walnut veneer trim, air conditioning, a trip computer, cruise control, and power windows, locks, and mirrors. This XJ6 is offered at no reserve with service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Washington title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in red with gray pinstripes and features quad headlights with chrome bezels as well as a “leaper” hood ornament, a sunroof, a telescopic antenna, dual fuel fillers, and polished dual exhaust outlets.

Chrome-finished 15″ wire-spoke wheels are mounted with 215/70 Starfire SF340 tires. The car is equipped with power steering, and braking is handled by power-assisted discs at all four corners.

The front bucket seats and rear bench are upholstered in beige leather that extends to the door panels. Walnut trim accents the dashboard and center stack, and amenities include air conditioning, a digital trip computer, cruise control, a rear-window defogger, and power windows, locks, and mirrors. The aftermarket Kenwood stereo does not work.

The two-spoke steering wheel frames a 140-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline along with auxiliary gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The six-digit odometer shows 40k miles, approximately 100 of which were added under current ownership.

The 4.2-liter inline-six features Lucas-Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection and sends power to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission. The battery was replaced in 2020 and an oil change was performed in May 2023. A September 2020 invoice shown in the gallery below notes a leak from the rear main seal.

Additional underside photos are provided in the gallery.
