This 1971 example, fitted with the iconic 4.2 litre straight-six engine, is in very appealing overall condition, reflecting a restoration carried out in the past and careful use over the years.
It stands out for its particularly attractive colour combination, dark green paint with brown leather interior, creating a classic and sophisticated atmosphere true to the period. The paint has good gloss and uniformity with no obvious signs of wear, and the chrome is well preserved.
Inside, the upholstery shows a natural patina in line with its age, and the wooden dashboard is well kept. The original instruments are present, adding to the authenticity of the car.
This XJ6 has four electric windows, a relevant extra at the time, as well as later-added rear seat belts that improve usability without compromising the character of the car.
Mechanically it is working and ready to use, and it has been converted to an automatic gearbox, a solution often adopted on this model for greater driving comfort.
It is certified as a Vehicle of Historic Interest (VIH) in Portugal.
A well presented Jaguar XJ6 Series 1 with a very attractive specification, ready to be enjoyed, and an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for a distinctive and usable classic with strong presence.
