This 1987 Jaguar XJ6 was initially sold by Jaguar Cleveland in Ohio, moved to North Carolina in 2013, and remained registered with a single owner from new until the selling dealer’s acquisition in January 2024. Now showing 54k miles, the car is finished in Moorland Green Metallic over Biscuit leather and is powered by a 4.2-liter inline-six paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes four-wheel disc brakes, 15″ alloy wheels, a sunroof, automatic climate control, cruise control, a digital trip computer, and a cassette stereo. Service in 2023 included replacing the fuel level sending unit, ignition coil, distributor cap, ignition wires, spark plugs, radiator cap, and two tires, flushing the coolant, and changing the oil. This Series III XJ6 is offered at no reserve by the selling dealer with an introductory cassette, manufacturer’s literature, a clean Carfax report, and a clean North Carolina title.

The car is finished in Moorland Green Metallic (HET) and features a “leaper” hood ornament, quad headlights, a sunroof, bright window trim and bumper accents, dual fuel filler doors, and dual exhaust outlets. The selling dealer notes scratches on the left doors and rear wheel arches and photos presented in the gallery show paint meter readings around the car.

Factory 15″ Kent wheels wear Jaguar-branded center caps and are wrapped in mismatched tires. Braking is handled by power-assisted four-wheel discs. 

The front bucket seats and rear bench are upholstered in Biscuit (ADE) leather contrasted by brown carpets. Woodgrain trim accents the dashboard, center console, and door panels, and amenities include automatic climate control, cruise control, a digital trip computer, power windows, and a cassette stereo. 

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, voltage, fuel level, and coolant temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 54k miles. The fuel level sending unit was replaced in December 2023. 

The 4.2-liter inline-six was factory rated at 176 horsepower and 219 lb-ft of torque. Service in November 2023 consisted of replacing the ignition coil, distributor cap, ignition wires, spark plugs, and radiator cap, flushing the coolant, and changing the oil. 

Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission.

1987 Jaguar XJ

Mileage 54,921

Exterior Moorland Green Metallic

Interior Biscuit

VIN SAJAV1349HC475474

Engine 4.2L Straight 6-Cyl Engine

1987 Jaguar XJ6 finished with a Moorland Green Metallic exterior and Biscuit leather interior. Driven just 54,921 careful miles since new. Options on this LOW MILEAGE XJ6 include a Power Sunroof, 15 Inch Kent Wheels, "Leaper" Hood Ornament, Wood Grain Trim and much more.

This Jaguar just underwent a service totaling over $10,000 within the last 100 miles and it really is a proper example in every regard. This service included valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, new rear shock absorbers, all 4 brake calipers were sent out for repair, replacing the brake fluid along with the bleeding of the braking system, new flasher switch, new window regulator and more. The 4.2 liter 6 cylinder engine is strong and powerful and the automatic transmission shifts effortlessly through all of the gears. The steering is tight and precise and the brakes feel just great. All of the electronics work properly and the air conditioning is ice cold. This really is a fantastic Jaguar to drive.

The interior is really nice. The Biscuit leather seats are in remarkable condition (see pictures) showing just minimal wear to the seats. The dashboard is like new (looks great with the wood trim) and even the carpets don't look or feel like they have been stepped on thanks to the floor mats that have been protecting them.

The exterior is what really sets this Series III Jaguar XJ6 apart from the rest. The Moorland Green Metallic paint is in fantastic condition (see pictures) with no major dents or dings anywhere at all. The paint is bright and shiny with plenty of luster. Add the optional Kent wheels mounted on great tires and this Jaguar really does look special.

The 1987 Jaguar XJ6 really is the ultimate collector sedan. It has timeless looks, great performance along with all of Jaguar's legendary safety, craftsmanship and style. The only only real "apologies" to this XJ6 are a few typical nicks and light scratches
