Disgusting.

The Jaguar pedigree has been brought to a new low.

I SERIOUSLY doubt he/she that is selling this car bought it new and is the original owner, like he/she claims. Especially since it already has what appears to be a used car dealer license plate frame. His/her lifestyle, and neighborhood don't quite fit in with the average new XJ6 owner's income of $250k in the 90s (Found this on MSN.com a while ago. XJ6 drivers had significantly higher incomes than even S-class, 7-series, A8 and Lexus LS drivers)

In case you haven't noticed, the demographic for used luxury cars, especially Jags, shifts rapidly once the first owner is done.
Perhaps she "earned" this car when new and both were in better condition.

She probably got it from a divorce settlement. Or a will settlement.

I showed this thread and link to sale to my wife. I figured if I was going to lose my sight and feel nauseated and sick by a thread posted, by a member who clearly wanted to wreak havoc on the visual senses, she should lose her sight as well LOL

She wasn't very happy with seeing EVERY PICTURE LOL She said "That's a guy and I think I'm going to throw up" LOL

I guess she won't be looking over my shoulder at the forum for a few days LOL

Great, now I had to look again, closely this time. I think she's right.
Now I REALLY want to un-see this.
Interestingly enough the car doesn't look too bad though.

LOL This is the type of things that you show to people to ruin their eye sight and see if they have a weak stomach LOL It's one of those sick things that stay in your head anytime someone reminds you, "Hey, remember that ad with the man/woman smoking the cigarette selling the Jag?" Instant visual and return of that horrible feeling"

Yes,
It is like a train wreck...you know your gonna look

I added a stronger warning on my first post.

I've been laughing at everyone's use of "butt"

Yes, butt, no butt

There is a lot of junk in that trunk.

I never really liked the looks of the XJ40s, but next to her, it does look pretty classy.
