Hows this?
« on: 06 June 2010, 20:58:37 »

Not bad for a grand, 88k miles, full Jag service history, needs a new gearknob orange repeaters gone for clear ones and a good buff up. It's the 3.0 V6 runs sweet as a nut. Needs a bloody good clean inside but at this price I may find some leather. Outside it's an absolute minter needs drivers side window sorting mind you doesn't go all the way up. Should double my money easily though  :y

Brand new Pirelli P6000's all round, 12 months MOT, needs above sorting and new front discs and pads brakes are shall we say a tad spongy  ;D

because you 'want to be in control'  ::)  ::)  ;)

Quentin Wilson once showed a Jag (XJ6?) on telly, the fact it had been ordered as a manual without leather had knocked loads off its value  ;)  ;)  ;)
Jags are (were) an executive car.  :y

Apart from lack of leather, that's what I was looking for last summer - they were going for around the £2k mark then with leather, but even without leather, yours has lower mileage and very clean with test, so you'll probably get what you want for it.
Gorgeous colour too! 8-)

I think that's a popular misconception about it being a Mondeo with a party frock on - so I was told on the jag owner's forum, there ain't much Mondeo in it at all, probably a but more Fraud more in the X Type, but even then, not alot!

I believe it is Just a Mondeo chassis, but I may be incorrect.
