Pedigree Motorcars is proud to offer this beautiful 1987 Jaguar Series 3 XJ6 Vanden Plas. Commonly regarded as the most beautiful and sexiest of the Jaguar saloons, the Series III XJ6 is the last of the handmade Jaguar sedan's. They are beautiful to look at, sit in, and to drive. They have a silky smoothness that only a Jaguar can possess. Most of these cars are in an old, worn out, and salvage condition. To restore them cost 10 to 20 times they're given value. Rarely does one surface that has been preserved and is all original.

Such is the case of this Alpine Green Vanden Plas. This impressive example is highly original and has been well-maintained throughout its life. Coming to us from Pennsylvania, where they have some of the strictest inspections standards in the country, we have a history showing that it has passed Pennsylvania inspections back to 1992.

This car is the final year of the Series III and the Vanden Plas is the most elaborate of all of the XJ6 models. This is the most desirable of this generation of XJ6.

It comes complete with:

Original owners manual

Original service book

Original radio book

Original radio code cards

Owners manual case

Introductory cassette

Tape cleaning kit

Radio face plate case

Original keys

Tool roll

Original unused spare tire

Clean Car fax

Documentation of work we had performed

Being that it is now fully serviced, this beautiful Jaguar is ready to be driven and enjoyed. It is an absolute pleasure to be in. The refinished wood is beautiful, as is the headliner and the leather. With the twist of the key the 4.2 L six-cylinder engine comes to life and idles smoothly. It accelerates wonderfully smooth and the air-conditioning blows ice cold. Even the original radio works as does the antenna. Every light, every switch, and every control works as it should.

This car looks as good as it drives. While showing some patina from it's 31 years of life, it is a stunning head turner. We strongly encourage perspective buyers to personally inspect this Jaguar.
