The car of choice for
1970s executives, the Jaguar XJ6 has now achieved classic status and
values are increasing. The Series Two was launched at the Frankfurt
Motor Show on 13 September 1973 and four days later this 'green
sand' car was sold to a Sheffield businessman by the city's Jaguar
dealer, Hatfields. In 1990 it was returned to the dealership and
featured in Nigel Thorley's book, 'Jaguar XJ The Complete Companion'
as a mint condition example. The XJ then had two more owners before
ending up on a used car lot in Norfolk. Repairs and improvements
have been carried out by IK Classics to make it ready for self drive
or chauffeured hire and the car also does duty collecting customers
and their luggage from railway stations and taking them between Ash
House and IK Classics' premises in nearby Jackson Bridge.
