www.ebay.com/itm/Jaguar-XJ6-Base-1985-jaguar-xj-6-/301156874682
Car has a buy it now price of $2,000 for 6 days.

Sellers description:
I have owned this car for about 12 years.

The Good: All recent rotors and brakes. The rear inboard discs are in good condition. The suspension is very tight. The tires are almost new and are mounted on Dayton wire wheels. All the gages work. The A/C works, power windows and door locks work. The sunroof works. All the lights function properly. The car starts and runs well with no taps rattles etc.. The transmissions shifts properly the fluid is bright pink as it should be. I just made a trip back and forth from OBX to Pittsburgh in this car and it effortlessly rolls down the interstate. At speeds between 75-80 mph I get about 14 mpg. I have always changed the oil and kept up with the maintenance. There is an aftermarket in dash CD player with a 6 disc changer in the trunk. All the speakers were upgraded. The headliner is not sagging.

The Not So Good

The leather interior is aging and cracking in places, The car was repainted 6 years ago and is now developing rust bubbles around the glass trim. The headlight buckets have rusted through in some places, but the headlights are still secure. It recently developed an exhaust leak between the muffler and the resonator. There is a dent in the passenger rear door from some idiot at the marina parking lot who did not look before backing up. The engine uses a quart of oil every 800 miles. I have no idea where it is going. The tailpipes are clean. The spark plugs look great, there are no drips on the ground. Possibly valve stem seals. The performance is not affected at all. The cruise control does not work. The dashboard has some cracks, The wood paneling on the dashboard is degrading but still in place.

Conclusion: For a car this age and mileage it is in pretty good mechanical shape, cosmetically she is feeling her age.
