Ebay item 8/3/11
cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-Jaguar-XJ6-Vaden-Plas-NO-RESERVE-/230654767947
Current bid $1,025.99, no reserve 5 bids 4 days left in auction. 65k miles.

Sellers description:
I am selling it for a charity. Although I am not a mechanic I have looked the car over and noted the following problems. I will describe the car in its WORST light because I want the buyer to be happy. I have sold other cars for this charity and the buyers were never unpleasantly surprised. I tell it like it is. I make no money on the sale, the entire purchase price goes to the charity. I start the price low, with no reserve, so that the market decides.

About the car. I picked up the car from the owner and drove it about a mile. Starts without problem. Drives nicely but the brakes are weak. A/C does not blow cold. Computer, Radio & power antenna work. All lights and signals work. Leather is very nice for a 25 year old car. Wood dash has spots where veneer delaminated and other spots where it cracked. Sunroof leak has cause headline to sag. There is rust around the car. I photographed the spots where I saw the rust. From ten feet away car looks great but when you get close your see that all four corners and door bottoms have some rust. There is a small piece of rubber missing from the drivers side front bumper. Tool kit and full size spare are in the trunk.
