Jaguar XJ6 1974
Our car:
Our Jaguar XJ6 has been awakened from a long lethargy. Abandoned in a garage for more than 15 years, it appears to have traveled very little and had few owners. The splendid beige leather upholstery was completely restored by expert craftsmen. . After an exhaustive controll, all the mechanism did not require large interventions and it still carries the original painting of an elegant navy blue
History:
Xj stands for eXperimental Jaguar. Launched in 1968 at the London auto show directly by Jaguar founder Sir William Lions. Direct competitor of Mercedes-Benz and BMW , born from the will of Jaguar to rejuvenate its car fleet composed of the outdated 240, 380 and S Type models . A totally new project that recalls very little the previous bodywork, results in an elegant car with light and streamlined lines. Few options are available as they were already regularly fitted with hydraulic power steering, servo brake and electric windows; they could also opt for: Borg Warner 3-speed automatic transmission, air conditioning and sunroof. Success did not take long, and it was much appreciated above all in the United States. In the second series presented in 1974, there were already all the safety and emission precautions required by the strict American standards. Few motorizations followed one another over the years, a 2800cc model only with manual transmission, which was replaced by a more reliable 3600cc and the longest in production 4200cc 6-cylinders in line that easily output 245cv. Great attention was paid by Jaguar to the construction of the bodywork and interior fittings. After 40 years, it is still possible to find them circulating with the original painting and the almost untouched interior upholstery. The XJ after many changes and updates over the years is still in production.
