Even a used Jag looks better than most new melted bean look alikes. The next best thing to a Rolls Royce. Improved reliability makes it a joy to drive. Scheduled maintenance is pricy but so are most high line autos. Everybody always looks wherever you drive.

Was ready to drive off in an Infiniti I-30 when this trade in waltzed in. British understated grace at its pinnacle. The 4.0 litre straight six has got to be the most reliable engine Jag ever made. Have done road trips off several hundred miles with no problems. Driving this car is special. It is reliable, beautiful and I've never had so many people (strangers) come up and ask to have pix taken with the car. My experience with this cat has me looking at getting another to match... XJS convertible maybe... and the wife loves it as well.
I found my Dream Car!

I bought my one-owner 1997 XJ6L ten years ago with only 29K miles on it. It now has 34K miles. I've had a few problems with dead batteries, because you can't let this car sit in your garage for a long time without running it; accessories drain the battery quickly. So I've put in a few new batteries and changed the oil every year. This year, I replaced the original Pirelli tires and the alternator belt due to age/dry rot. I also had to get the AC recharged with freon. Please bear in mind, this car is now 27 years old! The radio/cassette player stopped working a few years ago and I got salvage unit installed to replace it. The odometer display in the instrument cluster is also showing problems now, so I guess Ill need to get that fixed, too. Otherwise, this car looks and drives like a dream! It's powerful, fast and comfortable! The beautiful leather seats still look and smell new! I can't take this beauty out for a drive without somebody asking me if I want to sell it! Kelley and Edmunds say this car is only worth about $6k, which is totally nuts! This gorgeous car should easily be worth 5 or 10x that. My big problem now is deciding whether to sell it as a collector's car or keep it as my primary drive!
I am ELEGANCE

The Vanden Plas is one great ca r in tip shape, this ca r had 1other owner beside myself and it was 'kept' as I did, only until it was transported out of state to Florida from California did she start looking her 'age', it ran like a jet ride and despite popular opinions~ did NOT require HIGH maintenance, a tune up, new tires, and a paint job (make over) would make it your pride & joy, If you find one and can afford to put it on TOP again...DO IT!
