Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1981 Jaguar XJ6 4.2, offered at no reserve, has been part of a private collection since 2011 with only four previous owners and under 79,000 miles. While it features a striking rouge velour interior and a documented history, it has been in storage since its last MOT in 2013 and shows some rust, requiring light re-commissioning.

Condition
6
The car has been stored inside for many years, which has preserved the interior and mechanics, but there are some rust spots typical for a Jaguar of this age, and it will need light re-commissioning before use. While the interior is impressive, and the car has a well-documented history with few owners, the need for re-commissioning and the presence of rust suggest it's not in top condition.
