Jaguar XJ6 | 1989 Highlights: – 3.6-litre inline six-cylinder engine, petrol, automatic transmission – 110,000 km on the odometer – Beige leather interior with walnut trim, in good condition – Passenger-side door handle currently not operating correctly The seller offers for sale this 1989 Jaguar XJ6, powered by a 3.6-litre inline six-cylinder engine, paired with an automatic transmission. This example is finished in grey metallic paintwork with a beige leather interior and walnut trim, and has covered 110,000 km. The car presents in good overall condition, though the passenger-side door handle is currently not operating correctly, which a prospective buyer should take into account. Aside from this, the car has a straightforward history typical of a Jaguar saloon that has been used as intended, with a valid roadworthiness inspection in place. The Jaguar XJ6 was introduced in 1986 as an entirely new generation of Jaguar’s flagship saloon, replacing the long-running Series III and bringing a modern monocoque structure, revised suspension and Jaguar’s own AJ6 straight-six engine, offered here in 3.6-litre form. Development of this new XJ, known internally as the XJ40, spanned much of the 1980s, and the model was intended to combine Jaguar’s traditional emphasis on ride comfort and refinement with a more contemporary driving experience and updated cabin design, while still retaining the marque’s signature use of leather and wood trim. Inside, the combination of beige leather and walnut veneer continues the traditional Jaguar cabin ambience, while the AJ6 engine and automatic transmission give the car a smooth, relaxed character on the road, in keeping with its role as a comfortable, well-appointed executive saloon. It remains a model appreciated by enthusiasts of British luxury cars from the late 1980s for its blend of traditional Jaguar character and more modern engineering underneath.
