Description
West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional example of this original southern California family owner 1987 Jaguar XJ6 (XJ40) Vanden Plas 4. 2L 6 cylinder sedan in a gorgeous and and desirable color combination of original factory 'Bordeaux Red Metallic' (Code CEK) color paint with factory alloy wheels and beautiful 'Doeskin' (Trim Code AEE) leather interior!
The top-of-the-line 'Vanden Plas' model is a fully loaded and very rare and desirable model which had a retail sales price of over $41K in 1987 (over $120K today when adjusted for inflation according to the CPI)! This particular car must be seen to be truly appreciated! A real head-turner!
Obviously always garaged with absolutely no rust and no signs of any accidents, and owned by only obviously very careful and mature southern California owner/ drivers since new, from whom we acquired the car - obviously never abused, babied all the way!
The original factory 'Bordeaux Red Metallic' color paint is showing oxidation but otherwise is quite presentable and the interior is in very nice condition for its age with the door panels, headliner and the carpets all in outstanding condition throughout, including the original Burled Walnut wood veneer having only very minor cracks in the veneer.
Throughout their history, Jaguar has offered some of the most beautiful and complex wood appointments ever found in automobiles, with this dark Burled Walnut made especially for the Vanden Plas models.
This must be one of the finest later model classic Jaguar models available today and a now classic and increasingly collectible Series III Vanden Plas XJ6 Jaguar, a truly luxurious smooth ride and one of the last beautiful hand built cars from Jaguar's legendary Browns Lane, Coventry, England plant and a car that cost over $41K new in 1985 (over $120K in todays money) - this is probably one of the last classically beautiful designs built by Jaguar in their long and famous history of classic lines - and now becoming increasingly hard to find in such all original condition and with this car having had only one careful southern California family owner until we acquired it last month and with the car having obviously always been garaged since new!
