• Jaguar grasped the nettle bravely in 1986 with the launch of an entirely new XJ6 - code-named XJ40. The new XJ's outward similarity to the old one masked a host of improvements: a simpler bodyshell constructed from fewer panels, new advanced anti-corrosion technology, increased passenger and luggage space, and revised suspension giving superior ride and handling. Two new six-cylinder engines replaced the long-running XK series; these were the 3.6-litre, 24-valve, twin-cam AJ6 already seen in the XJ-S, and a 2.9-litre single-cam unit - effectively half the existing V12 - that produced 4bhp more than the outgoing 3.4-litre XK twin-cam. ZF four-speed automatic or a Getrag five-speed manual were the transmission options. Finished in red with grey cloth interior, this automatic transmission model features Fittipaldi alloy wheels and a MoMo wood-rim steering wheel. 'G101 PSS' was acquired by the owner in 2000 and last taxed for the road to the end of January 2002. A total of 48,280 miles is currently displayed on the odometer. Offered for re-commissioning and sold strictly as viewed, the car comes with old/new V5 documents, old/current V5Cs, and a quantity of receipts, invoices, and expired MoTs.
