Introduced in 1968, the Jaguar XJ6 embodies the pinnacle of British luxury sedan expertise. Designed under the direction of Sir William Lyons, it combined refinement, performance and comfort, rapidly becoming a benchmark in its segment. Produced in a variety of evolutions until 1992, today it remains a sought-after classic, appreciated for its timeless styling and unique driving pleasure.

The model offered for sale is from 1980, in a red hue that enhances its elegant silhouette. Despite having benefited from more than €6,000 worth of work on the engine in 2022, there are numerous points of perforating corrosion to report, as well as a leak in the power steering circuit. These elements will need to be reviewed to obtain a favorable technical inspection. Please contact our department for further details.

After a test drive, we note that a check of the automatic gearbox should be considered. An opportunity for those looking for a sedan with timeless charm, perfect for savoring Jaguar's trademark luxury and flexibility.
