Hi all,

I owned a 1996 XJR for two and a half years, from 2021 to 2023. It was the best car I've ever had and I regret selling it every single day. It was sold again last Autumn on Car and Classic.

While I fear it may be coke cans by now, or on top of a pile of other cars with no wheels, I'm now in a position to reacquire this car. If you know has it, please let them know I am interested in purchasing it in any condition.

Pictures and details:
1996 model XJR6 auto
Antigua Blue metallic over oatmeal interior, with chrome window frames
VIN SAJJPALF3BJ786967
Engine number 9KPDRB163950

 

Your best bet would be to try a "CARFAX" service on the other side of the pond. I tried here and nothing

 

In the facebook group "XJR 6 supercharged - only for Jaguars with Venom" https://www.facebook.com/groups/XJR6supercharged/ somebody recently posted an XJR like yours. Although I believe number-plates stay with the car in UK? So it wouldn't be yours. Posting in case I'm wrong. The guys name on FB is Paddy Mounfield.

 

In the UK a number plate is given to a car at ‘birth’ but that doesn’t mean the car can not have a different number if the owner pays a fee.If the new number is taken off then it reverts back to its birth numeer.

Carps car is wearing a private plate (only 2 numbers after the P) Whilst the facebook car is a regular number.
When I did an MOT check, Carps car does not exist, so the number plate HAS been changed.
However the facebook car does not have headlamp washers so is not the same car, but it was a good spot!

 

It's a great spot, but yes no washers or chrome window surrounds.

I've done a little more digging and you're right, the plate was changed. The car is SORNed as J33 MSK - anyone seen it?
