Description
1996 Jaguar XJ6 3.2 Sport (X300) - Low Mileage - 12 Months MOT - Excellent Example
A beautiful car in need of a little TLC.
A genuine car, only two owners from new, lots of history with this car.
A very well-presented and increasingly desirable Jaguar XJ6 3.2 Sport, finished in a metallic blue with contrasting light leather interior. This is a genuine low-mileage example at just 74,000 miles, and it drives exactly as a proper Jaguar should - smooth!
Car is a general good condition for age starting to need some bodywork.
That said bodywork is straight in need of some minor welding on the chasey and the interior is clean and comfortable. Importantly, the headlining has recently been replaced, which is a common issue on these cars and makes a huge difference to the overall feel of the interior.

3.2 straight-six engine (smooth and reliable)
Automatic gearbox

Condition:The car is in very good overall condition for its age and presents as a well-looked-after example. It starts, runs and drives very well with no known major faults.
The latest MOT included some advisories typical for a vehicle of this age, including minor corrosion to suspension mounting areas and some wear in suspension bushes. These have been reflected in the price, and the car remains a solid and usable classic.
