Good morn,
I've just registered with the forum and intend to do some research prior to getting a getting another XJ6.
I last owned a XJ6 in the mid 1990s - it would have been the last of the XJ40 models with a 4.0L AJ6 motor and 4 speeder auto in a nice grey colour. I really liked that car and have always fancied getting another one day - which I think is approaching.

My current cars are a Porsche Boxster (fun car), Skoda Superb diesel estate (sensible car) and a 1980 Volvo 244 (project car) - plus 3 bikes (Triumph, CCM and Suzuki). The XJ6 idea is based on nostalgia and ability (room and money) on my part. I think I'd be looking for a X300 with the AJ6 motor and 4 speed box, not a project car that I could run for 2-3,000 miles/year. I'm in no rush so I'm hoping this forum will allow me to research the right type of car to buy.

Best wishes,

Alan

 

Welcome to the Forums.

The X300 with the AJ16 (AJ6 grown up), is an awesome car.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forums Alan,

An X300 would be a good choice. The model has a reputation for reliability and long life. I put over 140K on mine with few problems or work other than routine maintenance.

The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Enjoy the forums and the search for your next Jaguar.
