Footnotes

Produced between 1994 and 1997, the X300 generation of Jaguar XJ was a vast improvement over its predecessor. The styling was still classic Jaguar, but also much more modern with its curvaceous body panels and quad rounded headlights. Engineers made a particular effort to improve the reliability and built quality of this generation, and it really shows to this day.

Supplied new to Hadley Green Garage, Barnes, this 1996 Jaguar XJ6 has only 3 owners from new and is enthusiast owned. There is good history with the car including its original hand book and service book (that is stamped until 2009 at 65,000 miles). It also has an MOT valid until 2022. Overall the car is in a good condition and is finished in a navy blue exterior with grey leather interior. Both present well and are suited to a Jaguar of this era. The 3.2-litre straight-six engine is also reported to be running and driving well. Overall this is a good and honest example which will be driven to the sale.
