The all new XJ6 (or XJ40 to use its code name) was launched in October 1986 as a replacement for Jaguar's ageing Series III cars. It boasted all-round independent suspension, power-assisted rack and pinion steering, four-wheel disc brakes and generous levels of sound deadening. It proved to be a credible alternative to Mercedes-Benz's S-Class and BMW's 7-Series and was well received by the motoring press. The newcomer was initially available with a choice of two variants of the straight-six AJ6 powerplant - the 2.9-litre SOHC unit or the 3.6-litre DOHC engine. Allied to either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic 'J-gate' transmission, they allowed purchasers to prioritise performance over economy and vice-versa. By 1989, Jaguar had been bought by Ford who changed the engine offerings to a 3.2-litre DOHC unit or 4.0-litre DOHC one.
This right-hand drive home market XJ6 was manufactured in 1992 and is equipped with the 3.2-litre engine coupled to the optional automatic transmission. It is finished in Metallic Blue and trimmed in two-tone Grey leather. The vendor views the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine, and transmission as all being in "good" order and is selling the Jaguar complete with original interior colour chart and brochure, some service documentation, a selection of old MOTs and one valid into May 2013.
