The Appeal

The X300 generation of Jaguar XJ marked a return to the curves and four headlights of the original, while introducing a much higher level of build quality and updated versions of the smooth and highly regarded ‘AJ16’ straight-six engine.

This is an early example of the 3.2-liter model, from 1995, which remains highly original, down to its radio/cassette player. Its light blue metallic paint and chrome trim are bright, with scuffs to the bumpers the only marks of note.

The interior presents very well, with all wood trim complete. The seller reports that the air conditioning does not currently blow cold, although the remainder of the climate control system works well, with the heat being particularly effective.

The car has covered less than 2,000 miles since the start of 2019. It comes with service history, and the recent service conducted in September 2026 included new plugs and coils.

The seller says, “This car drives beautifully; it’s fast and comfortable, with very comfy seats. You wouldn't think for a moment it was 31 years old.” Early examples of the X300-generation XJ6 in such original and well-presented condition are hard to find, making this a rare opportunity.

BEFORE YOU BUY

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:

✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..

✓ We request that a nonrefundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted. Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.
